League Two Rovers (1) v Bluebirds (2)

[Sparky]

Strong looking bench.

 

[Boz]

A bit surprised Morris isn’t starting, while McAlear ahead of Hughes for a place on the bench? Assuming Merrie isn’t fully fit either. It will be interesting to see how it goes.

And kane nit around thats good

 

[Am on mobile]

Not lol

 

[Higgy 2]

Can't see us getting bullied in midfield with Lewis and Walker in there. Hopefully will let Hendry pull the strings with Walker ping nice passes from deeper.

 

[Sparky]

Behind

 

[Sparky]

Badly need a presence up top. Jennings ok but need Norris and Dennis on.

Not convinced with 4-3-3.

As last season, lots of huff and puff but no end product

 

[bring back the cowshed!]

Only good news is that Wrexham are 0-2 at home and currently bottom of the league.

Yea we need dennis and Norris on and morris to

 

[Am on mobile]

Just no one in the box as normal snooze time

 

[Higgy 2]

Walker way off the pace. Nowhere near fir enough to showcase his ability.
Hendry to many touches for me.
Leake looks a real find. Incisive passing.
Agree with Sparky re no presence up Top.

When did we last win on opening weekend

 

[Ian]

There's been effort but not much end product. We certainly need some natural strikers on the pitch. We can get back into this but need changes.

 

[Boz]

Don’t think Walker has played much pre-season so seemed a bit of a gamble to start with him, though a better defensive mid option than Lewis. Sounds like we’re still deficient in the creating, so just switching forwards won’t cut the mustard.

 

[Ian]

We actually had two very good chances. The first when Hawkes couldn't beat the keeper and the second when Jennings was through but the ball got trapped under his feet.

 

[Sparky]

Walker off for Morris.

 

[Higgy 2]

Don’t think Walker has played much pre-season so seemed a bit of a gamble to start with him, though a better defensive mid option than Lewis. Sounds like we’re still deficient in the creating, so just switching forwards won’t cut the mustard.

I'd rather have a fit Lewis in there Boz. Walker has the class, but he didn't have the energy to run into a space to receive a ball, or to deter opponents running past him.

 

[Sparky]

Hawkes gets us a goal again. 1-1 from the spot

 

[Sparky]

And we’re behind again. No stopping that shot

 

[Sparky]

Norris on for CJ but no Dennis who got 20 league goals last season….
