If Rose wasn't so quick is there any chance that he would be a professional footballer based on his reading/understanding of the game and his technical ability? Definitely not. So I don't know why we've spent so much time and energy on a player who appears to literally have one asset which is pace and nothing else.

The frustrating thing is that we persist with a player who appears to not know what to do. If we were replacing Green at half time, it had to be Ogbu,

I agree Rose was poor today, but Ogbu was a disgrace against Macc and that was probably the reason Rose was put on first today.

I wouldn't give AL the job on that one decision alone! We were crying out for a centre forward to hold it up a bit, and to bring Rose on for that job was just daft. I would take Rose out of the firing line completely for now as his confidence has gone and he looks like he has just been introduced to a football for the first time.

He tried to rectify it by bringing Ogbu on (who was very good) and moving Rose out wide, but too little too late.

Can't agree enough, was only saying today that his only real attribute is his pace, his positional awareness is poor, his first touch is poor, his dribbling isn't great and passing and shooting also not good.


The team from my first season 1993....hooked ever since

Green, Rose, Ogbu , Hanson ....Shearer, Lineker, Fowler......all would look sh1t and useless with the level of service, lack of support and total isolation received from the midfield today. Not a cutting pass played in to feet in the full 90 mins, whilst i agree Rose wasnt great , his strength isnt to play as an isolated centre forward with balls fired above head height towards him.

Its pretty ironic/ sickening that in the last few games we have actually put some decent crosses into the box in open play....at the exact time our main aeriel presence is sidelined.

Has it been mentioned that Fentz and Holloway would fall out in five minutes flat?
