    Other than Roberts he was our best player today, back to his old best. So yes, we will miss him….

    Nwakali isn’t a patch on him.

    I thought Connell was rubbish today. Couldnt even do a 5 yard pass without putting it out of play

    Roberts OKeefe DKD were best i thought

    Yes some of his passing was poor apart from the ball that put dkd in and won the pen.

    Connell did that once. Was decent otherwise.
    O Keefe plays like he’s new to football. Makes bad choices over and over.

    Luca was good today, he’ll be a miss in the next two. I think quite a few underestimate how important his off the ball work is for us.

    Will be a big miss. Was a daft yellow to pick up though.

    Oh he will. Made a difference today, no one else can play that holding role.

    I think you’ll find he’ll be massively missed.

    Nobody else has his defensive discipline off the ball. The booking was a joke today too - was barely a foul from where I was standing

    ">
    His passing radar was off that’s for sure. He did his defensive duty well though.

    I think football probably isn't for you, Nige.

    Funny how we all see the game different. I thought Connell was very wasteful today, but O'Keeffe, particularly in tbe second half, was as good as I've seen him in a Barnsley shirt.

    Rotherham were absolutely terrible today, let's hope Connell can do the same against Charlton away.

    Yes it’s funny how we all interpret things differently.
    I think O Keefe could be a decent player but he continually makes silly choices - trying to take players in in areas where he has no cover, balls which don’t beat the first defender and leave us exposed.

    Connell has been off the boil recently but i thought he controlled midfield today.
