Where do we go from here?

As the header says I really dont know! We have been outplayed almost every game at Ewood this season and when we do have a lead we give it away at the last moment.The whole Venky set-up is a shambles ,the team we have is not in balance and lots of over the hill players.Once again Where do we go from here.

The same place we have needed to go all season. The transfer window in January!!!

Having to read stupid threads like the one shown below by Wow criticising the performance at weekend amazes me. Written by the biggest Kean apologist in the North West of England without reference to the ridiculous recruitment policy of the last two years! It's clearly all Berg's fault now!

Ever since the Venky's arrived we have sold decent quality and replaced with inferior wannabees in most positions. We desperately need at least 3 or 4 new players, plus Best returning and immediately hitting the ground running.

Until we can move on a lot of the current rubbish we have recruited we will be up and down. We need a commanding centre half, a ball playing creative midfielder with the ability to beat a man if required, a pacy winger with a decent cross and a quality target man (Best?) with a few goals in him. All new recruits able to contribute to our goalscoring.

I also would like to see another full back and a box to box midfielder who can drive the team on and cover ground with the ball.

The team at weekend is very close to our best eleven. Maybe Best gets in or CKR, maybe MGP gets a start, maybe Givet should play, maybe Gomez....but apart from that who is there who is better than what we have?

Too many players, much of a muchness and a shocking recruitment policy for as long as I can remember has finally caught up with us. It is imperative we allow Berg to buy some new players and fingers crossed he gets it right.

Well said I agree with you 100%,we need a massive clear out and some quality players brought in or we will soon be in trouble, financial and in the league .How on earth can owners achieve this in less than 2 years or 3 seasons is beyond belief!

I have to agree with OOJW it is what i have been saying all season about this squad,but for me two signings and playing 442 woud change things emmensly,,we do need someone on the pitch who can constantly drive the team forward,i am not all that sure that Rochina is working playing him just behind Rhodes,Rochina for me flatters to decieve some great touches but his final ball does leave lots to be desired,(oh for a young D Dunn) Lets hope that Berg can see this with his subs on Saturday i feel he can,,give him a chance guys.

Its a tricky one. Whats happened over the last few years has been predicted by many fans, but not the management or owners. If the Venky's are serious about the club they need to invest most if not all of the money they have taken ou the club through selling players such as Jones and Samba, and replace the average dross we have now. Its no good getting promoted (not that I think we will this season) and getting battered every week. As mentioned above the club has been wrecked in a couple of years.
I would like us to stay in the championship for another season, repair some of the damage done and build a stronger team, that can work together and may I say be able to pass the ball.

Rover Blue when the team travels back to 1982 on Sunday will that affect Dunnys age?
