Match Thread Rotherham United FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Wednesday 25th Oct (26 Viewers)

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Ayari has to come off for me. He’s having a shocker. Get Tatsu on and get the £7m striker on to see what he can do.

We look fucking terrible Rotherham are the worst side we've played.Changes needed at half time not 75 minutes MR.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

We are getting on top - first goal key, and I think it'll be us. Couple of times we really should have played Van Ewyck in, rather than shoot.

 

[procdoc]

Opinions starting to change? It's as clear as day

I judge each game at a time. This one we haven’t shown any passion. Just powder puff. Ayari may as well be sat next to me in my living room. Godden and Simms have been pathetic. Sheaf our best player again

 

[PVA]

Missed the first 25 mins as it wasn't showing on red button

Rotherham are terrible and we should win this.

Ayari grew into it and was able to find some decent pickets towards the end of the half but just not effective and incisive enough


Sheaf and Dasilva the best players

 

[Adge]

Be very surprised if Ayari comes back out for the second half. Abysmal.

 

[Macca]

If the magic gel hasn’t taken effect in the next month I’m ready for managerial change. It’s gone unforgivably stale and we should be getting more out of these players than we are

 

[Jamesimus]

I don't think Robins will take Ayari off at half time, because that's like a public hanging. But really, he should.

The kids tried I think, but he's just getting bashed all over and doesn't seem to have the strength in the ball to be able play his game.

 

[Evo1883]

I mean , still 45 mins which you'd imagine will definitely be better than the 1st half .

It's just been a nothing game atm , a tough watch .. they've had 1 good chance , we've had 3 or 4 we should have done more with

 

[The Philosopher]

O’Hare with one working ACL would be better in the #10

With no working ACLs…

 

[mark82]

Well, that was soul destroying.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Simms has probably stunk the place out for enough games in a row now. Time for Wright to take his place for a bit until he’s done the same and we swap again.

 

[Great_Expectations]

Like to know where the positive brigade are

season is about to just not getting dragged into anything silly

Yasin Ayari needs to get off this pitch

No it’s not.

We’ve had a bang average start to the season, but we’re 13 games in and have our better players coming back, with a big improvement coming in Jan.

Christ, we’re not even losing and we still have 45 mins to play.

 

[Peter Billing Eyes]

Luton doing a better job in the premiership than we are in the championship. No way would I have predicted that at the start of the season.

 

[shmmeee]

We just look an AM and a couple of strikers short of a decent team. And we have an AM on the bench.

 

[Briles]

I genuinely hand on heart fell asleep after 30 mins. Only time I've done that whilst watching something was jools Holland hootenanny

 

[Nick]

I don't think Robins will take Ayari off at half time, because that's like a public hanging. But really, he should.

The kids tried I think, but he's just getting bashed all over and doesn't seem to have the strength in the ball to be able play his game.

He might keep him on until 80 and bring ohare on? Or if it's for saka it will be 65th minute.

For what he's offered we could have had Wright on up front instead.

 

[Marty]

Dimms has to put that chance away, he's been poor today.

 

[Nick]

We just look an AM and a couple of strikers short of a decent team. And we have an AM on the bench.

He's tired though

If I was Doug king I wouldn’t be too confident in giving robins and statin more money

First game you've watched?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Really don't think we've been as bad as most are making out. Little lacking cohesion in the final third. Ayari needs to do more to link it & the decision making in the wide areas hasn't been perfect.

Simms' one touch stuff is really good, it's when he wants to control it himself he struggles.

Eccles' set pieces have been wank but think he's generally been positive in possession.

It looks disjointed and slow all over the pitch as per usual, we're fortunate not to be going in behind too. Against a team bang in trouble and with a patched up defence we're threatening little.

Really poor.

 

[djr8369]

Very laboured, lacking in confidence and conviction. Get Saka on for Ayari

We’ve been ok but yeah look nervous.

 

[rob9872]

MVE our biggest threat, need to get the ball to him quicker and more often. In acres and ignored at least twice.

 

[Ashdown]

Simms fucking useless, nothing up front . Wright is utter tosh too we know .Whoever recommended these clowns should be kicked into the gutter ASAP.

 

[SIR ERNIE]

Given what we've spent, anything less than three points would be a major disgrace.

 

[skyblu3sk]

Eh? I agree Ayari isn't having the best of games but I don't think we are playing too badly. Lashing quite a few shots from outside the box when better options are on but they haven't created much.

 

[Matt smith]

Simms and wright have cost 10 million minimum by the way

let that sink in

 

[procdoc]

What a fucking ridiculous comment, have a word with yourself

 

[Johnnythespider]

How foggy would it have to be to get this abandoned

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Just swap the front 3 for Wright Sakamoto and O'Hare. That was painful.

 

[steve101]

My opinion of Ayari and Da Silva has not improved after that, particularly the former. Da Silva has had so much of the ball but has done very little with it - one decent cross I think. We are missing energy in midfield. They have it in Rathbone. Some poor decision making throughout. Hopefully it will get better. Surely a half-time Sakamota for Ayari sub.

 

[skybluecam]

No it’s not.

We’ve had a bang average start to the season, but we’re 13 games in and have our better players coming back, with a big improvement coming in Jan.

Christ, we’re not even losing and we still have 45 mins to play.

We’re a player away from our strongest 11 and look on a par with relegation fodder Rotherham…

 

[Jamesimus]

He might keep him on until 80 and bring ohare on? Or if it's for saka it will be 65th minute.

Yeah he will stick to his preffered times on this as per haha

You’re starting to see sense
