Not really as he wouldn’t have been on their 50 man shortlist for a centre back. It was invented by his agentLeeds had a lucky escape.
Agreed, he's been good on the ball but just been caught once or twice. Still confident that he's good enough personallyThink Rose, despite supporters already deciding he's shite... Deserves the benefit of the doubt in terms of form... He's been out injured and maybe was re introduced too soon... Either way give the lad a chance he's been a good player for us
It's starting to look like the SMB on here

He is the more experienced of the two.He looks a better long term bet than Hyam

Both are inexperienced at this level of competitive football - so both deserve a bit of time to find their feet.Not in English football he isn’t

Hyam, Kelly and Shipley have all gone up two leagues in 3 seasons, they haven’t done *too* badly considering that
I totally agree. But this step up is the biggest and some of our fans just need a bit of a reality check. Its a learning season and we just have to hang on in there and stay up.
Ok Rose made a poor challenge, but it was a harsh sending off. Most of you were waxing lyrical about him being premier league class last season, now you hang him for a mistake lol.
There were a lot of poor performances yesterday and we got what we deserved, nowt.
We wouldn’t have won yesterday with 12 men.

Dreamer is correctIt wasn't a harsh sending off - it was correct according to the laws of the game. Rose should know that, let the man go and hope Marosi makes the save. Even if he'd lunged in with his feet he'd have got away with a yellow as the ref was likely to interpret it as a genuine challenge, esp early in the game. The thing you don't do is tug them back or push them because that isn't a genuine challenge and makes the ref's decision easier. That's what he did.
Now you could say compared to the shithousery of the likes of Bournemouth with Hamer and yesterday's Watford game, or Lamela with Martial, or Shaw's cynical hack, it seems over the top, but that doesn't make the sending off harsh. The fault there is too much leniency in the other decisions.
How that affected our performance and the mental aspect of our players we can never know. We'd started competitively and while they we getting joy behind our wing/full backs with the extra CB to ocver that may have negated it to some extent and we'd have grown in confidnece in the game while theirs may have waned. To say we wouldn't have won with 12 men is comparing apples and oranges.
We do but like a lot of players I don’t think the manager is capable at this level
Sign me upDon't deink and post - Nick, perhaps you could start a section on the forum for when people can post when under the influence?!

I think so although I think hyam has continued to step up each time he’s been found wantingHe looks a better long term bet than Hyam

Miles off his man for the third. (The guy who scored the goal)Was generally good tonight, but was a bit slow to close down for Reading's first goal.
