Alarm bells ringing already after watching that today - spend the coin keith !

Yes I know it was a friendly against a team 2 divisions lower than us but after watching that performace we are in big trouble if these are the tactics Hill intends the team to carry out when we kick a ball in anger.

The goalkeeper and the defence for a start were just terrible, and we have zero threat or width going forward and some of the players didn't look fit. The goalie looked a good shot stopper but all other aspects of his game were p*ss poor, weak on crosses and underhit passes to the defence on a few occassions.

Dagnall is superb in training according to Hill but today he was a ghost, a waste of a shirt and a wage, bet he is p*ssing himself that he is playing for our club and stealing a living. He isn't alone though several others also, simply out of their depth.

Hill needs to get that Jacob Butterfield money spent pretty sharp on a big hairy arse centre half straight away.

The tip tap football we constanty tried to play from the goalkeeper outwards just did not work, even against a team 2 divisions lower than us we lost the ball very easily and we simply do not have players who are good enough to play that way. Mido needs 2 stone off him in the next 3 weeks, some neat touches but the bloke is a good 2 stone to big.

Friendlies are just a training exercise and the result didn't matter to me it was how we played, and today we were very poor, hope this was just a flash in the pan, but a team 2 divisions lower than us could have had 6 goals today and at times simply walked through our shop dummys who were in defence..

On a more positive note what a cracking stadium the millers have, think they'll be in the top 3 this season for definate, some of their players looked head and shoulders above ours and that was very worrying.

time to get the cheque book out !!

 

Agree with you Andy but big worries after watching that standard of performance

The goalie and our so called defence in particular were just shocking and thats against league 2 standard players, and this tactic of tip tap from the back requires championship standard players and thats something that half of our team just aren't !!

Just like ground hog day all over again dog dirt at the back and zero threat in the final third.

Jacob Mellis apart he did very well.

We need to strengthen in defence quickly.

Been told Steele had a big fall out over his contract ????

 

It's the second one. The first one one the midfield got over run by one player and we generally looked very poor.
