Lrrr Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Going off BBC's top scorers list for the championship, despite his disrupted season with injuries Famara has the 3rd best minutes per goal ratio in the championship behind Vydra and Grabban. The man has been fantastic for us and brings out the best in Bobby at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
where's the joy Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 plays with a smile on his face too. the key though is the left arm wrist strap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gert Mare Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 He's a good signing. Still only fit enough for about 60 minutes though as he continues to recover. Worryingly we don't have the same quality to replace him with when he needs to be brought off due to tired legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our weak bench is killing us at mo. No one to come on to help us see games out. Woodrow today ffs. Seriously. Barely touched the ball. But after diony last week...

wendyredredrobin Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 I still think Fam doesn't look great considering his size. Clearly slow and a poor touch, but: You can't knock his scoring record and he clearly makes a nuisance of himself and makes space for others. He is not yet 100% fit He is still adapting to the English game. You can see him improving game by game and his confidence is improving along with his fitness. I'm sure there is a lot better to come from him. Hopefully he can work on stamina and pace. Touch will improve over time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the matter with people on here? Or should I go to a place where people who love and support the club are really pleased with the way the season has gone since August? Frustrations, ups/downs, disappointments? Of course, this is football and even Man City and Chelsea have these! All our first team, some subs and the mgt team ARE DOING REALLY WELL. But our recent form is relegation form so cause for concern and discussion or else why bother with a forum ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpexile Posted February 19, 2018 Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 I understand the frustration by many but if we had been offered 6th spot last season, the majority would have had both arms open. It highlights perhaps the luck we had in earlier games with goals in the last minutes. As LJ said we still are a work in progress & I think that with the injury woes we've had we are doing exceptionally well. If we can hang on to these guys & the young ones (no Cliff & Young Ones jokes please) out on loan I feel we have good times to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seventh however would look like failure after having spent two thirds of the season in a play off spot and that is what is causing concern . Win against Fulham , Cardiff and Preston and we should make the playoffs but we must be outsiders on current form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least Gus will run around and make CBs uncomfortable. I mean you can see it everytime he plays. I seriously do not get why he doesn’t get minutes. He is our player, works harder than Woodrow and is younger yet Cauley plays. I like CW but with Gus back he’d be getting any minutes left over from Fam, Bobby and Diony. And if Diony doesn’t get it together soon, he takes his minutes too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phileas Fogg Posted February 19, 2018 Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 He’s been very good really. His goal tally is brilliant for a first season, especially considering the injury. I think this myth that he’s not a very good player is partly because he looks ungainly and ungraceful. He’s not in the team to do that, we’ve got Reid, Paterson and Kent to look comfortable in possession. He’s a destroyer and a very good one.

He reminds me of Wayne Allison, gangly , big lump , always looked unlikely to do anything but often did . Diedhou also has rubber legs ,like Tino Asprilla , they go in every direction before he fires the ball into the net with accuracy. Love the way he plays with a smile on his face . Top man .

That's actually a good point, for someone of his frame I think he's not as strong as he could be. He's actually pretty small considering his frame.
