| Worst half since Mckenna got here? 14:42 - Apr 16 with 448 views | Dubtractor |
Granted its a dead rubber and all that, but I'm struggling to take any positives from that half.
Passing was dreadful across the pitch, and our midfield 2 were two of the worst culprits. Rotherham did a number on us to stop us playing, including faking injuries every two minutes to stop any momentum and give themselves a breather, and we seemed second best in almost every 50/50. I guess that 50/50 point is where the difference in motivation for the game comes into play - our dead rubber vs their crucial promotion game.
Thompson, Morsy, Norwood, Bakinson all get particularly low marks from me.
Good to see a mostly solid debut against tricky opponents from Elkan, that's about the only positive though.
But all of that said, if Norwood scores a tap in from 4 yards out then its a completely different game. |  |

Fair analysis. We were a lot better than them first half and if Norwood scored that sitter then it’s a completely different game. But yeah, definitely the worst half under McKenna, going to have to be a lot lot better against Wigan. Elkan looked solid, real talent moving forwards. We need McKenna style strikers in the building for next season. |  | | |

Agree with most of that - really not great. I thought Bak was alright, but the other three all very off-colour. Stop Morsy playing, and you stop us - that needs to change.
Annoyingly, we were very easily drawn into Rotherham's bullsh1t - teams know that if they target Morsy/ Celina, they'll usually get a reaction/ booking - this, for me, has got to be a key area of focus over the summer.
Two strikers and an LB, plus 6 weeks on the training pitch before mid-August - we'll be a lot better. |  | | |

Would we be happy to have watched us do exactly the same second half and have 18 minutes of injury time with it ending in a dull 0-0?
I guess that next time we play Rotherham that is what we will need to do. And defend throw-ins (which we also failed to do against Cheltenham earlier in the season). |  |

Would it have been a different game? We showed we couldn't handle them when they upped it and came at us.. going behind may he started this before HT, there's no proof that we'd have coped and that's concerning.
Defence did us proud again, they remained compact and did their best but my god midfield were awful today, not one can be given any more than a 5/10
Morsy, just didn't own it. Bakinson giving freekicks away, given the ball away. Aluko kept turning into places and losing the ball, Celina just wasn't interested. Burns tried but showed his weakness when he doesn't have space. |  |
