South Coast Royal There aren't too many options open for Pauno (injuries and no January incomings) but he has to shake the side up rather than just accept losing.
It will be interesting to see if he goes with the negative approach to team selection as shown in the Wycombe game or if he goes for an attacking set-up designed to let them worry about us rather than thinking about how we deal with their team of (slow) giants.
I hope he goes with the emphasis on attack and that he doesn't piss about with the midfielders, in particular I hope he starts with Olise and Ejaria otherwise any semblance of a passing game goes out of the window.
Am a bit concerned about the game as we haven't done so well against the lesser sides as we should have but Rotherham just keep on losing so let's hope we help them with that record.
Agree, this easier run of fixtures couldn’t come at a better time. I think we’ll be too good for Rotherham.
Disagree that the approach against Wycombe was negative. It was largely the same team that put Bristol out of reach within 45mins just a week prior.
Just feel we need Joao, Olise and Ejaria to get back to basics, play the ball in to feet to one another and play closer to each other. Last couple of games they’ve looked like headless chickens. If they bring their A game, Reading tend to win.
