Doncaster Rovers
5.1 long balls, 1.9 tackles – McCann reuniting with this 23-year-old would transform Hull City

Why Hull City should reignite their interest in Ben Whiteman
Back in August, a report from Doncaster Free Press (h/t Hull Daily Mail) claimed that Hull City were linked with a move for Doncaster Rovers midfielder Ben Whiteman.
Grant McCann, who managed the 23-year-old during his previous managerial stint at Doncaster, was willing to bring the talented midfield enforcer to East Yorkshire but the Tigers had an official approach for Whiteman rebuffed by the League One outfit (Doncaster Free Press h/t Hull Daily Mail).
Whiteman had been identified as a potential alternative (Doncaster Free Press h/t Hull Daily Mail) to former captain Markus Henriksen, who looked set for an exit from the KCOM Stadium in the summer. However, Hull City failed to get a deal over the line to secure the services of the former Man United youth player.
Whiteman, who was released by Man United without being offered a scholarship, shot to prominence with Sheffield United. He then went on to spend time on loan at Mansfield Town and Doncaster Rovers due to stiff competition for places at his parent club.
A successful loan spell at the Keepmoat Stadium during the first half of the 2017-18 campaign paved the way for a permanent switch to the League One outfit in January 2018.
The box-to-box ace hasn’t looked back since then, going from strength to strength to establish himself as one of the mainstays in the club’s midfield.
The Rochdale-born star has made a total of 115 appearances for Doncaster in all competitions till date, scoring 15 times and setting up another 7 goals in the process. His rich vein of form recently earned him a new long-term contract at the club until 2023 (h/t BBC).
As per WhoScored, Whiteman has averaged 67.9 passes per game at an accuracy rate of 83.5%, including 5.1 long balls, 1.5 key passes, 1.9 tackles, 2.2 interceptions and 3.4 shots per game in the League One this term.
Verdict
Hull City’s failure to secure a deal for Ben Whiteman didn’t seem like a big loss back in the summer, given the plethora of accomplished central midfield options available at McCann’s disposal.
Irvine and Stewart have been the mainstays in the middle of the park while the likes of Batty and Leandro Lopes have also clocked up some decent playtime this season.
However, with the Tigers yet to finalize new deals for out-of-contract stars Jackson Irvine, Kevin Stewart, Daniel Batty and Henriksen, they might as well start exploring the prospect of going back in the market for the Doncaster skipper.
The 23-year-old also offers a wide range of qualities, as well as the versatility to slot into defensive and box-to-box roles in the middle of the park.
Whiteman is still unproven at the Championship level but he has already shown enough promise in the third-tier.

Arsenal
Debuchy And Reiss Nelson To Start – Strongest 3-4-2-1 Arsenal Line-up To Face Doncaster In The Carabao Cup


Predicted Arsenal Line-up To Face Doncaster Rovers In The EFL Cup
Arsene Wenger’s men managed to take a point from their trip to the Stamford Bridge this weekend, as they take some confidence going into the rest of the season. They are back in action this mid-week as they take on Doncaster Rovers, a Professional Association outfit on Wednesday in the third round of the League Cup.
The Gunners will look to go all the way in every competition this season and have enough quality and depth to compete for this trophy. Wenger is expected to field a decent enough line-up, with enough quality to win his side the game.
Team News
Arsenal are without the services of Danny Welbeck who picked up an injury at the Bridge. He will be joined by Mesut Ozil, who will not be risked for this League Cup tie after missing the game against Chelsea. Francis Coquelin and Santi Cazorla remain absent while Theo Walcott, who picked up a niggle against Koln, is expected to be back in action. Forgotten defender Calum Chambers is back from an injury and is expected to feature for the Gunners.
Formation: 3-4-2-1
Manager: Arsene Wenger
GK – David Ospina
Giving Petr Cech some rest should be Ospina, who had a decent time in his previous outing, against FC Koln.
CB – Calum Chambers
The forgotten defender Chambers is back in training and is ready for first team action. Wenger should use him as a part of the backline in this tie.
CB – Per Mertesacker
The German international was solid when used earlier this season and Arsenal will hope that he can put in a solid performance yet again.
CB – Rob Holding
The young defender has done no harm to his reputation since moving to the Emirates and should be used on the left-hand side of the backline for Arsenal.
RWB – Mathieu Debuchy
The French star failed to make a move away from the club in the summer and Wenger has a chance to use him in his natural position on the flank this mid-week game.
CM – Mohamed Elneny
The Egyptian midfielder was decent when he came on against Chelsa and deserves to make a start against Doncaster.
CM – Jack Wilshere
The English midfielder being eased into the first team and this is the best chance for Wenger to test him in the middle of the park.
LWB– Ainsley Maitland-Niles
The youngster has been excellent whenever he’s been called upon and Wenger seems to trust him enough to use him as a left-wing back in this game.
RW – Theo Walcott
The English winger has not been able to hit the ground running this season and has failed to get into the first team. He should see this game as an opportunity to win back the trust of the manager.
LW – Reiss Nelson
Another youngster who deserves some first-team action, Nelson is expected to start in an attacking role on the left flank for the Gunners.
ST – Olivier Giroud
The French striker is still waiting for his chances in the first team in the league but he will get a chance to start this tie, acting as the experienced link in the attack.
Here is how Arsenal might line up:

Doncaster Rovers: The Future Looks Bright, But Rovers Have To Watch Their Feet

Being relegated is one of the worst feelings in our beautiful game but it is how you react and bounce back which shows how much character belief your club has, and that’s what Doncaster Rovers have just done. The South Yorkshire side just pipped Brentford to League 1 promotion in an extraordinary Aguerooooooo last day kind of game.
Donny Rovers have been teetering up and down between The Championship and League 1 for the last nine seasons. They had four years in League 1 as in 2008, as painful as it is for me to talk about it still they beat my beloved Leeds United in the playoff final 1-0 after a James Hayter header sealed there place in The Championship where they spent another four years there. However they always say it is how you react and they bounced straight back after a solid season with a truly unbelievable finish.
In the final game of the season, fellow promotion hopefuls Brentford hosted Donny at Griffin Park on a sunny end of season affair. The situation was that whoever won would go up automatically and the losers would have to go through the gruelling playoff process. However a draw was not enough for the bees plus if Donny won and Bournemouth failed to win they would be crowned champions.
Still with me……?
The game was played as expected, in a very tight and nervy fashion as the consequences were too vast to be playing open football and take risks. Having said this it all exploded in literally the dying seconds. Brentford are then awarded a penalty kick in the fourth minute of stoppage time. You just could not write this script. This is when ego’s possibly become too much as everyone would like to be the one who nets the penalty and is known and remembered for scoring the goal that clinches promotion. As three players argue over the spot kick I believe the original penalty taker was overlooked. Marcello Trotta was the man to take it, he went for pure power and blasted it right down the middle but it was too strong and the ball canons off the crossbar. Next thing you know Billy Paynter has the ball on the right flank, has a man in support and only has to beat the keeper. He simply squares the ball to the hero of the day James Coppinger who rolls the ball home to send the travelling Yorkshire fans into ecstasy.
Doncaster were champions, Brentford were playoffs and as it goes they lost to Yeovil in the playoff final. That just shows how massively important that last game was.
There is no drama like football drama….
Anyway moving on, the future is once again bright for Doncaster Rovers as they return to the extremely tough and unpredictable league of the nPower Championship. As this league is known for being one of the toughest to stay in or get out of, people have been saying that it may be slightly easier next year with the relegated teams from the Premier League not being that powerful and the promoted teams from League 1 week and possibly out of their depth. However I somewhat disagree because no matter who comes up and down it will always be an incredibly tough division where anyone can beat anyone.
I believe Doncaster chose the right man for the job in Paul Dickov, he may be a rookie to the management game however he showed just what he can do at Oldham Athletic with the highest point beating Liverpool in the FA cup 3-2 but then resigned due to not the best home form. I think Paul will get the red and white stripes playing the old fashioned English way with a target man up top, most likely to be Billy Paynter who gets his chance in the Championship once more.
To sum up there is one thing we all know and that is that it will be a long old tough season for Doncaster Rovers and they are bound to be struggling and scrapping all the way.
