holmesfield_owl Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 Obviously expecting much changed side. Hull were awful opening day as they got a late draw. I'm expecting another win and at nearly 2/1 we're good odds. 3-1 win and on we march! Up the Owls! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoylandOwl Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 How many changes to the side? I'll guess at... 9. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkowl Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 Interesting if he will make sweeping changes, did he make a lot for the FA Cup, can't remember. But I presume he will want to see other players, give them minutes. Do we know if Ugbo has got clearance yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mkowl Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 Well it's not dull under Rohl that's for sure. Attacking wise we look excellent, defensively more questionable with this set up / players.

Reesh Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 Defensively we look a lot more shaky but still look good with the ball going forward. The change in the depth of the squad in 12 months is blindingly obvious. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkowl Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 Just now, Reesh said: Defensively we look a lot more shaky but still look good with the ball going forward. The change in the depth of the squad in 12 months is blindingly obvious. It is interesting, I know people like Pato, but he looks like a duck out of water with this style of pass and move. I would say Palmer as well. Neither are playing badly saying that, just look technically below what is required 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canterburyowl Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 Agree Reesh, cannot look when we are being attacked but we look good ourselves when we are going forwards. Too many loose passes for my liking in that half though! Would love McNeil to get his hat trick in second half. I think we will end up losing as will run out of steam eventually but the game will have served its purpose for DR and team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoylandOwl Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 Once they got used to our pressing in their half, they started to have a bit more success. But. Charles hasn't been really tested beyond the goal.

Andyben Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 Palmer shouldn't put the shirt on for us again. We have Valery, Pol V, Iorfa ahead of him at RB and he's not good enough as a 6. Unless he's gonna be used as a third choice left back then it's game over I'm afraid as we HAVE to sign another LB. Fusire is a player and I've every confidence in him to do a decent job in CM but I think cover for Chalobah and a young Ratter for Bannan / Ingelsson and we're done there. Ugbo & Lowe have #9 tied up,and Smith is irreplaceable in my eyes. Gassama, Musaba, Kobacki Windass McNeill and Jamal Lowe support the #9 maybe room for another. So for me. Outs. Palmer (moved slowly into a coaching role) Pato, Neymarv Famewo (if we get a LB) BTC (Loan), Wilks, Shipstone (Loan) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAL Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 Somebody had better get Otegbayo practising throw ins FFS. The ref didn't spot the second one, his back leg was level with his arse it was that far off the floor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bellsview Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 20 minutes ago, Reesh said: Why? Leaves it late with his passes, some of which are then rushed and put our player immediately under pressure. Not the greatest on crosses and doesn’t command his area all that well either. I wouldn’t want him as our regular number one just yet. Think a spell out on loan would see both his game and confidence improve. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
