Rotherham United manager Paul Warne says his side will be looking to take the game to their opponents when they travel to Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium to face Queens Park Rangers tonight.
The manager has called on his charges to impose themselves on the opposition, following his side’s narrow defeat to Swansea City on Saturday.
Despite putting in a spirited second half display, the Millers were edged out courtesy of Matt Grimes’ first half strike and Warne is looking for his team to take their second half showing and turn it into a 90 minute display against the R’s.
“I was happy with our second half display but I think it’s always easier when you’re chasing a game at the end. You need that character for the whole game, not just the bit part," Warne explained.
well paul play a more attacking formation with two strikers and see what happens
we are losing by the odd goal because we are not creating enough chances and taking them
you said you like wingers well play the two we have and get them running down wings and put some crosses.
It's old territory, but to station an extra body up front you have to take one from somewhere else. It's no good having two up front if you don't have the ball much and can't get any service to them other than punts from front to back, which often just amounts to giving the ball away. It's a difficult balance. The problem isnt the formation, it is the lack of quality when we get into good areas. Without wanting to single anybody out, as a for instance I can think of at least half a dozen occasions when Mikkel Miller has got into some really dangerous situations inside the area and not been able either to get a shot off or find a telling final ball. He isnt the only one. As a team, we need to improve in that department. I am not sure that simply changing the formation is going to magically make the difference.
