I played sunday league football today.
Clearly I was the best player on the pitch.
I scored 5 and made 7 last ditch tackles.
We lost 5-0 but the rest of my team were sh it!Comment

Yes, he is right up there.
[QUOTE=jmelanie;1556031]What I don't understand is why JFH didn't play him at the end of the season when we were safe and had no chance of promotion.[/Quote
I didn't understand that either.Comment

Billion times better tonight then against Swindon. Some decent movement my only observation and complaint is about his first touch its non existent as is his second seems to need three or four touches to get ball under control
Worked hard an put a shift in do I was satisfied with his effortComment

If we can give him more match time, I'm sure he'll have that sorted before we know it.Billion times better tonight then against Swindon.

We can all see a good player there, we need to give him that chance and hope we do.Comment

My take on him tonight was that he made some runs but they weren't particularly great. I brought a friend who's a big big fan of the sport, really loves the tactics of it and knows a lot and what he said before anything else was that CW set himself up poorly for making runs by not hooking his runs but just running horizontally. His touch was poor, his finishing was poor but at least I saw him looking to run for balls and we did play a few solid balls through. I did feel however we as a team improved massively when he moved out wide when Polter came on. I don't think he'll be good enough for this level as I think he lacks too many key things a striker naturally needs."What stats allow you to do is not take things at face value. The idea that I trust my eyes more than the stats, I just don't buy that because I've seen magicians pull rabbits out of hats and I know I just know that rabbit's not in there." - Billy Beane

Yep this is what I was trying to say at length earlier in the thread but some just want to write him off without giving him that chance.
His touch will improve with time as will his movement given the right coaching, just want to see him given that proper run not just the odd game here and there.Comment

As you think he is just not good enough for this level do you think we should just get rid rather than try and coach him into a better player like we seem to have done with Polter?My take on him tonight was that he made some runs but they weren't particularly great.

If so, that's a bit RedknappesqueComment

I'd start him against Wigan, give BFG a rest. If we start with Sandro, who can actually pass a ball and not just hoof it, it may suit Conor's gameLast edited by lymehoop; 24-08-2016, 07:38 AM.I must away now, I can no longer tarry
