It was McCallum's fault for the 2nd goal. However, overall he did play well yes. Would be great if we could sign him as he's very young and very talented. But in reality no chance. Norwich paid well over £3m for him, they will want him for next season in the Champ, no chance we can afford him and we shall be lucky if they let us loan him again. | |

Harsh. He didn't give away the ball cheaply in midfield. | | | |

True, but he didn't block the cross, after that he slowly got wiser to that ball from Hudders, blocked it and then won it and went forward. I would sign him if we had the money, which we don't so, won't. We can hope for a season loan again though, but I doubt it will happen. | |

I think his positioning was ok. The ball was central and in that situation we always tuck our wide defenders in. I thought it was up to Chair to fill in beside him, Chair blocks the cross, McCallum helps inside. | |

Watched the second half in stunning HD and Mccallum stood out a mile IMO.Ready to defend with his life (look at his last tackle ,injured his calf yet hobbled back to defend corner ) and always looking to attack which was refreshing. Moses was excellent too and saved that point with his goaline clerance otherwise it was 3-1 and game over. Very disappointed with Dozell and have been all year totally invisible and offered nothing . No words to describe Charlie Austin.Looked angry on the bench when he was not called , then when he comes on did nothing except get booked for a stupid follow through . Great point but too little too late | | | | Login to get fewer ads

Funny,. I thought Dozzell was one of our better players - collected the ball and fed it, kept the tempo going and his positioning was good, I thought. | |

Aside from his corners (I can see why he's on the ones on the right-hand side because you want them swinging in towards one of the posts but no idea why he took them on the other side instead of Chair), I thought Dozzell wasn't too bad? The stats seem to agree but they never really tell the full story.

I found it very strange that once we started pissing it around the back non-stop we didn't start using him more often since I think he's very good at keeping the tempo up when we've got comfortable possession. | | | |

Those stats back up my view, which was that Dozell was very good. He always looks forward, rarely plays it safe and is pretty good on the ball. Needs to add a cutting edge in the oppos penalty area, but aside from that is coming on nicely. Another one where I just don't see where the criticism comes from. | |

I think was taken out of the firing line by Warbs when he was struggling a bit and coached a bit more. We know what he has and we know what we want him to develop. Takes a bit of time to get the two to align, but he is a tidy player who can (but doesnt yet consistently) move the ball quickly and keep the pressure on the opposition, with a a few killer passes. Think he will be a good investment, but unlike Hendrick, is ours and worth playing. | |

Agree, he played well, and he can pick a pass probably better than anyone in the team. More to come from him, I think. Really like that combo of Field, Dozzell and Amos actually - next season I hope for more from them. | |

It's funny you know, when our crosses are blocked, we are shite at crossing. Yet when the other team crosses, we are shite at defending. It was actually an excellent cross under severe pressure from McCallum and was undefendable - sometimes you just gotta give credit where it's due | | | |
Full backs on 01:49 - Apr 16 with 2751 views | CLAREMAN1995 | Well it appears I miscalculated how well Dozzell played and also the QPR player who saved the day for us stopping the lead going to 3-1.It was the excellent McCallum not Moses . In my defense I was watching the game in an American sports bar with 19 TVs in the place .I had to beg and bribe the Manager to find the game but fair play to him he found it. Surreal experience watching QPR when not one person looked away from the baseball, Golf and US sports programming to check us out .I flew the flag alone | | | |

Full backs on 07:45 - Apr 16 with 2513 views | LongRanger | McCallum very good but Norwich will surely want him back for latest trip back to Championship, leaves us will a job to do on full backs…assume Moses has done enough for a new contract, but is Kakay good enough, does Wallace have the legs for another year, Uncs good cover as a wing back but not full back and out of contract. Could need 3 new full backs next year | | | |

Sympathies, Bannerman. I watched one of our recent games in a sports bar here in Cork with the sound turned down and everyone else watching and listening to the booming commentary of a Hurling match. Surreal! My mind was fried by half-time! | |

Totally agree Brian, commented on it on the match thread. The way I read the match, the back 4 meant him playing deeper as we didn't have the third centre-back to bring the ball out. He did it very well, simple but accurate, and played on the half-turn, which gave him that fraction more time then maybe the centre-backs have. Very good stats. | | | |
