    At 2-0 we looked to be cruising but seconD had Rotherham batter us and after their goal we looked unsteady and in danger of concedING again However a few things that stood out to think about ..Why has J Walton suddenly adopting a one handed punch out of crosses into the box which looks risky? Victor and Miller have alot in common but the outstanding one is their inability to finish in a one on one with the keeper.OK if you are a goal or two up but imagine the game was poised on 1-1..and although you can't question his work rate ,Frieser is painfully slow for a striker.

    You can’t knock Frieser for his running about but it’s obvious we need more pace all across the forward line especially when you’re under the cosh and need to get up the pitch.

    Victor has the first touch of a cart horse, and the finishing ability of a cart horse. Freiser has the pace of a cart horse.

    I always thought pace was one of freisers qualities before tonight but either he isn't that fast or rotherhams defenders are like Usain bolt...
    And victor should have buried that chance or at least hit the target but there man should of finished his too where he dragged it wide.

    Agree Pete. We seemed to have lost intensity in the 2nd half and were flapping to belt the ball as far as we could to clear it. Playing like schoolkids in the playground at times.

    Minimum of 2 forwards needed to replace any of Miller, Schmidt, Thomas, Green, Victor.

    Victor has finished twice like a thoroughbred. Well thrice to be honest cos that near post own goal was a corker too,.

    Bad effort at finishing today - puts him in the Schmidt basket. Held it up enough tonight to make it obvious we need such person.

    2 more forwards needed. Then we're really cooking on gas - the way we play and how badly the rest of the football playing division can't cope with it.

    That miss of Victor's last night will give him nightmares.
