That kind of pulling out of tackles looks like a player who has had bad injuries and is now gun-shy. Not sure if that's the case with Harries but that was my first thought. Not sure what Garner and Chorley seen in him
He's played a couple of really tidy long passes. You can see that you could see him as a ball playing defender in a three. Just never, ever in a two. Conroy is a reasonable comparison to be honest, left footed diet Conroy. |

I do wonder why we brought him here as he's unlikely to get a game.

1st 10 mins he looked good then he stepped out of 2 tackles and his head seems to have dropped now.
Even in the first 10 he utterly misjudged a ball down his side and ended up stretching to concede a corner. There is no defensive urgency in him. Try and convert him to a midfielder if we can, to save a wage if nothing else. I certainly wouldn't wan him anywhere near the central defence of a promotion chasing team. |

Their attacks get within our six yard box, ours don’t get within their penalty box.

It's not exactly full intensity, but this is much more of a first team football match than the first two group games were so far.

I’m taking a guess here but probably his passing. I expect the plan was to slot Harries in at CB and play the role of passing it 5 yards back and forth with Reed so certain fans could wank over our possession & pass completion stats… |

Iandolo has again showed why he isnt a left back, far better going forwards and sloppy defensively, fit or not hes givebn the ball away a few times at the back so far.

It is, no idea what the possession stats are but we must have 70%+ so far, Rovers are sitting back and letting us have the ball. Just little in the last 3rd other than a few crosses. |

It sounds like Lavinier is getting a few decent crosses in.

Pretty sure Harries was garners last signing for Town before he left. Reeds corners show why Gladwin is taking corners now. |

(Not just you but more widely) Reed gets a fair bit of criticism for stat-padding short passes sideways and backwards, but he also throws in quite a lot of seriously ambitious long passes out to the flanks which are much lower % completion. What he doesn't seem to do much of is anything in between - short to medium passes forwards. It must be managerial instruction, I can't see any reason he wouldn't be capable of them. |
