Typical Rovers, whenever we look like kicking on we drop points at home in games we should win.

Been impressed by Brentford's Watkins today, absolutely filthy weather in Barnsley.

Just watched the highlights of that Barnsley game... Weather was a tad wet :p like you said, Watkins look great, on the 3rd goal all the Barnsley players let him run into the 18 yard box and stood off him... Shame when he hit the post and then on the rebound hit the Bar :p that was a fifa moment :p

Well we've been found out :p

Not enough clinical players up top, possession and chances created don't mean **** unless you can put the ball in the net (and defend set pieces!)

Although very early, the next game is pretty crucial against WBA.

He works hard :(

Seriously though, it's impossible for him to ignore Nketiah for the next game, it would be ludicrous. He could get in Arsenal's time right now!

He’s honest but his finishing is absolutely dire, that chance he had in the second half actually went out for a throw in.

As you say Nketiah has to start the next game and get a bit of a run.

Preston are certainly dark horses this year. It makes our draw with them look really good although we dominated that game.
Our season is very predictable at the moment, we play similar stuff to last season but can actually defend now, just we cannot score to save our lives. Costa was supposed to be the game changer but isn't offering much, we lack creativity massively. It's never been the same since Saiz left.

Leeds ground at a result today, a bit squeaky bum time at the end. Again we cant defend corners, they had one chance at a corner and scored. Very pleased that Bam Bam scored even if it was a penalty, he has got such a high work rate but just needs a few more goals in him.

Yeah, it's a pity he's not more deadly, someone should just stick him on finishing training 4 hours a day for 4 months, pretty sure he'd convert far more chances that he gets. His overall game is generally alright.
