    I’d put Flavell on up front, can’t be any worse

    But this isn't a nothing cup game, it's the League Cup, forget who's chucking money at it, it's a proper trophy with proper history, we're not talking the u16s EFL Trophy pìsstake, the winners play european football, they should be giving a toss.

    Garbage all round for their goal. Farrugia with a shìt ball straight to them, MdG with his usual shíte defending and WTF was the keeper doing?

    To be fair before Russell missed the header he did some great work to win the ball back on the edge of the box he then played it to Barrett who gave it straight back to Rotherham
    You also singled out clearly who put a quality ball in for Russell. Too much sideways backward possession football for me.

    Do you think it could have possibly been a deliberately facetious comment on my part?

    It can't be worse than that first half. Abject.

    The League Cup is now on about the same level of seriousness as the ZDS Cup was in the early 90's. Middlesbrough's first team got pumped 4-0 at home to Doncaster's reserves the other week. The same Middlesbrough who are top of the Championship with a 100% record.

    Imho....a poor half for the reds. Rotherham haven't needed to be that good tbf....they deserve their lead as they have been more of a threat in the final third and physically better.
    I probably think it is work in progress with our squad and shows how paper thin it is....and how far Connor has to go, although I would argue its still loads better than the last couple of seasons.
    We need some quality in but it may take a few windows to do that.

    If CH thinks the CBs at the club apart from maybe Sheppard are good enough I'm sorry he's in the wrong job because the CBs certainly are.
