He runs harder. This is Championship football. Work harder, win the second ball, get on the transition It’s fanciful thinking winks actually affects the game in this system. He just slows it up

Skipp started and Winks didn’t in Rowett’s only win. Possibly his performance of the season v Bristol City Winks has been absent every time we’ve had a little run of form. The idea he controls the play is fanciful because he just slows it down

To which he keeps selecting the same players, doing the same formation, waiting far too late for subs. He doesn’t think outside the box. Hes not even trying something different. Mavididi needs dropping for example. Waits so late today. Keeps playing Winks and it’s not working. Keeps choosing Okoli, he’s pants

Yet we’ve just drew to a team everyone else got points from

Yet he keeps picking them and shunting youth

Quite funny how Cifuenties got the silly name……

He’s borderline Holloway bad. I say not cos of the players, cos he keeps trying the same thing again and again and again. Not a surprised we let two in on set pieces when he dropped Nelson the best at defending. His only win Winks didn’t start because we had a midfield which actually ran. Mavididi picked every week

There’s an uncomfortable pattern that when he’s not played, we’ve achieved better results. August and December proof of that. Rowett’s only win he didn’t start. Returned for QPR and their midfield had a field day We are ran far too easy in midfield when he plays

We don’t know cos there’s been zero attempts at trying something different

Notable differences on the pitch ? We literally gave away a goal on Friday by a midfielder misplacing a pass. We literally are fading and getting lazy, we giving up goals from a position of strength. We’ve been leading in six of Rowett’s eight games and let teams back in. Late goals against us by Stoke, Ipswich, Norwich. We were hanging towards the end of the sole victory against Bristol City. The players notably faded from minute 30 v QPR. I don’t doubt that the games in January under Cifuenties but we had two runs of form we’ve got nowhere near under Rowett which was when Marti got rid of Winks coincidentally and began to introduce Page more. With Monga starring in August as a really good prospect. Rowett has insisted on playing Mavididi week in, week out. If Rowett’s name was Gario Rowetto, it would be different but he’s successfully cut himself out to be this fix it man with the championship and everyone is playing along with it. Yet he’s making the same tactical and selection errors as those before him

Most clubs in protest actually do it during. Thinking most notably Sheffield Wednesday and Reading in recent memory

Explain then the pattern in Rowett’s time as manager of allowing teams back into games after going a goal up? Every game we seemingly take the lead and then the players get complacency. Six of the eight we’ve played. Two of the players you mention (Page and Monga) were central to our only spell of good form this season. After all Monga has better stats than Mavididi despite a lot less time on the pitch. Cifuenties cocked up in returning to the same old squad members. We’ve had occasions under Rowett of needing a goal in the second half and failed. There’s examples like Norwich away and West Brom home with late winners under Cifuenties. Rowett is making similar errors as Cifuenties. He's put his trust in players who’ve repeatedly failed before. There’s no doubt Marti was reliant on players providing initial quality. Under Rowett, he’s seemingly take away the ability for our quality players to do that.

The usual run a ball but then out bowled

Hasn’t even attempted to play youngsters, change the formation or think outside of the box tactically. That’s part of my issue. He’s tried to wrap them in cotton wool

This is a conclusion I’ve come to. There’s a massive silent majority who’ve just given up

I see the chairman is completely absent coming into the biggest month of his and his family’s investment

An xG greatly aided by two goals put on a plate by Preston, Daka’s first would rival a penalty of it’s xG worth. He ought to start working on their mental application then. Cos any hint of requiring mental strength they cave in

I’m going for 4-2-3-1 formation. Take the lead, sit back until opposition score. Every sub is a like for like change. Give away a goal at a set piece or some **** up at the back

When some of those shots were the likes of Okoli attempting a wonder goal from 35 yards, it was an illustration of lazy football,

We’ve led in six of his eight games, we’ve won once

Straight at him. Any competent keeper would save them

Hmmm. Same mistakes week after week, same formation, subs until 70, left until 94th before a substantial change. Two goals off Preston errors today

Can't see Three Tuns open

The dropping of McLoughlin said a lot for me. Stand out against Liverpool by a country mile. The continued use of Neville as a left back another sign of just shit management

Yeah, whom has a relationship with West Ham which their fans accuse their owners of being reliant on
