Match Thread - Blackburn Rovers - "FA Cup 5th Round"

[RowlattsFox]

Whether we turn this around or not, that was pathetic. Iversen done OK but Ward would be slated for the goal, Faes is no by no means reliable but almost feel sorry for him, trying to do so many people's jobs at times. 

 

KdH at least trying but he can be so poor. How are we playing Vardy on his own against Blackburn? 

 

Squad is as strong as a paper bag. 

[Guest kristianity77]

On the bright side, our xg or whatever you call it must be higher than 0.01.  That'll be what goblin will dine on when all is said and done. 

[Sunbury Fox]

Totally hideous first half performance. Zero creativity and unbelievably error ridden. Thomas, Amartey, Soumaré and Vardy have been totally shocking.

 

We also need to stop this ridiculous inverted full back crap as we don't have the players to play it and we are giving them simple overloads down our right side over and over. 

[Tuna]

Genuinely don't want to see Thomas, Soumare and Amartey playing for us again, sick to the back teeth of them, not good enough under any circumstances, league or cup!

Far too much shite in this team.

Amartey and Thomas disgustingly bad. Praet tries but then so did Iain Hume. Vardy past it.
Tete lacks the bollocks, Soumare drifts from Yaya to Stephen Hughes, and Dewsbury-Hall is so technically lacking it’s painful.

[fuchsntf]

The whole team selection,from the start was naff…

Did Rodgers really believe this set up could delive a decent performance..

We don't take any risk with the ball in their final 3rd.

 

We take all our risks in our defensive 3rd.

 

Think back to how good we were 3 years ago. Truly sad.

Always stuck up for Soumare, but he's actually shit. Did he basically come here to retire

100k a week mate.

Confidence coached out of him. Possession more important than beating a full back. Play narrow to defend. Track back. Same happened with Under. BR would have ruined Lenny Glover.

 

Coached out of him?

 

He's been here a month. 

 

He's just shit.

[Sly]

What sort of message does this send to the likes of Soyuncu, Vestergaard, Bertrand, Iheanacho, Mendy and the entire youth setup etc ? 
 

Half of them would at least try given half a chance, unlike this useless lot of chubby mess! That performance from

Luke Thomas was as ugly as a bowling shoe. Soumare is about as effective as a condom with a massive hole in it. 

 

[foxfanazer]

I've had the shittest day at work and now watching us put in another disgraceful performance under this dickhead. Had enough!

I'll happily take getting knocked out of this cup if Rodgers goes tonight.  Something has got to give.  It can't carry on like this.  Our football has been shit for 2 years.  2 sodding years!! 

Absolutely correct!  We have been fking useless with the odd decent performance...... Brendan MUST GO!

He was totally ineffective against league 2 Gillingham. He, sadly, no longer offers anything to the squad.

Tepid, passing out from the back, possession based football, conceding because of it?

 

Imagine my shock.

Blackburn have done that and shown how to do it.

I know we're shite, but Blackburn seem like a decent side.

They're without their two best players and away against a prem side with nothing to lose. I'd say we're making them look decent because of how bad we've been, they're just working harder and look fitter, like most teams who we play against.

[Cropwellfox]

Need to hope beyond hope we don’t need Thomas, Amartey and Soumaré to play any more PL minutes this season, my god they are utterly woeful 

[FoxesWalk]

Thomas needs time away from Leicester to re-find some sort of form and confidence. He’s a liability and playing so badly week in week out here is doing nobody any favours.

[majaco]

Playing out fro  the back can be problematic.   It can expose ability issues.

I don't think I've hated a Leicester player as much as I hate Soumare for years.

 

Sums up this era of the club to a tee.

 

Thick as pig shit, without a care in the world, thinks he's better than he is and the bare minimum effort. Like 90% of his team mates.

My hatred for Rodgers is all consuming !!    I have no hatred left over for anyone else !!

Not saying I completely called this...but I completely called this.

 

This is a nailed-on relegation side persisting with fvckwit tactics from an utter spanner of a manager.

[trugerkem]

I don’t even know where to begin with that shit show

Exactly. But don't shift the blame from the persons whose job it is. He indefensible at this stage

Yes, but my criticism of Amartey does not say any different.
