Well our football hit a new low today
Rowett of course has to go but on repeat, that does not solve much
I know players stop playing for a manager they don’t respect but where is the pride? Players need to take a long hard look at themselves
No one above a 5. Well done Campbell mind

Thought Etebo was the stand out and deserved more than a 5.

Some of these players are getting away with murder safe in the knowledge that if it isn’t Rowett copping the flack it will just be the usual suspects like James McLean. Just listened to Williams on the Radio and he genuinely doesn’t get it how poorly he, and the vast majority of his colleagues are performing. What does he think they are getting paid huge sums of money for?

Some of them can't use the manager as an excuse, they've not been great for a lot of their time here.

Thought Etebo was the stand out and deserved more then a 5. He was pretty good. Had drive and determination which is what’s been missing with the rest of this bunch of useless fucks masquerading as professional footballers.

Etebo was really good.
Federici was Ok in what little he had to do, and I thought BMI was the pick of the defenders.
The rest though, Jesus.
Edwards offers something going forward (some good crosses) but it was a clumsy challenge for the penalty. He's still got a lot to learn, but with a bit of patience will be a decent player for us. Pieters was awful but possibly a bit rusty after his lay-off. Williams is a massive problem- he slows everything down with the ball at his feet, takes an age to decide what he's doing and then just launches it aimlessly up the pitch anyway. We're desperate for another CB to partner Bruno.
Clucas was poor, McClean absolutely woeful and Ince really missing an end product.
Afobe looked just as bad with a strike partner as without one. I can't believe we've spunked £12m on him. Berahino wasn't quite as bad as him but offered very little other than a couple of half-decent lay-offs.

As said Etebo looked arsed, the others mind didn't show up. He has, as you say, lost the players and this period of limbo needs ending pronto. I hope that Slavisa Jokanovic has the job personally.

Thinking back to players who started as attacking full backs who have ended up as wingers or strikers (e.g. Bale and Commons) I wonder if Edwards could have a future as a right winger? His biggest strength is his crossing so it might be worth giving him a try on the wing.

Well done Campbell mind They are playing the way Rowett wants them to, they did make mistakes but that is to be expected when playing compact with so much passing. I believe we have a team of very good players but they need to be unleashed.

His biggest strength is his crossing so it might be worth giving him a try on the wing. Not sure he's got quite enough in the attacking locker to be a winger. He's pacy, can cross, but don't think he's got enough trickery about him. People have to remember he's only 19. With some decent defensive coaching I think he'll have a good career here. What he doesn't need is the 'he's only in the team cos he's local' brigade getting on his back. As I've said before, Shotton was a victim of that and would now get into our team with his eyes shut.

Mmmmm - you may be right. Then again, I remember watching Bale get a red card for Spurs against us at the Brit (in the game when Gomez started crying) and thinking he was one of the worst full backs I had seen in the Prem. Didn't he go a ridiculous number of games for them before he was on the winning side? Less than 2 years later he was scoring wonder goals against us and soon after that he became the World's most expensive player on his move to Real Madrid. There are no guarantees, of course, but if a player has reasonable pace and a good cross then I'd say it is always worth giving him a run out on the wing. The more I think about it the more I think him and Bauer on the right could be quite productive.

Tom Ince ran his bollocks off and tried to drive us forward, he’s above criticism Thought he was poor tbh, effort was there but made wrong decisions. Felt sorry for Tom Edwards,everytin he got the ball he had no one to pass to as Ince was ignoring the right wing.

If at 1-0 down we needed to win for Rowett to keep us job I don’t think the players put that much in to make sure they won and he stayed.
A positive ty Campbell was brilliant when he came on

Etebo would stand out for us if we had a half decent side with half decent movement in the final third.
