Crackers Corner Posted May 7, 2017 Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 For me has to get a look in next season. Was a real threat in the air today and great hold up play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just doesn't look a goal threat for me but hard to judge when you have zero decent service Agree that his hold up play was good and he at least gave them something to worry about Taylor & Duric would see us relegated next season IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC RISK77 Posted May 7, 2017 Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 All a matter of opinion but I thought he was awful today. two strikers for me hopefully another promising loanee and one of our own being a marquee signing. fear for us with Taylor and djuric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBFC II Posted May 7, 2017 Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 the best target man I've ever seen tbf, didn't lose a single header today and with better service from out wide would cause a load of problems in the area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair to people, it's boring. He wins almost everything but to what end? No one seems able to read where he's knocking it down to. He'll lay some off and does hold it up well but it asks for long ball. He's good at what he does but is that what the club needs? Hopefully he's an impact sub and spot starter going forward. If we pumped crosses into the box then he may score more but we don't exactly play to his strengths. When he does lay it off to someone else we try to walk through the defense instead of getting it wide. Then our width is our full backs who can't cross.

We've been spoilt with Wilbs who could lead the line and was a goalscorer to boot Wilbs looked more mobile at 37 than Duric does if I'm honest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However it was little over a week after he joined. So there is that Djuric/Engvall has the potential to be a dangerous combo imo. Particularly if Engvall can keep his goalscoring form going until (and after) he returns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not suggesting it will be - but a signing that doesn't deliver would IMHO see us in problems As it stands I don't see we have enough goals in the side for next season Either we need a 'restyle' in style of play and / or personnel or we need to recruit goals from more than one signing in the summer IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont see him being the 'main' striker for us. But think he could get 5-10 goals and just as many assists if he was a regular starter in a front 2 for next season. Particularly now he's had some time to attack and has a full preseason with us See above about a potential Djuric/Engvall pairing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wayne allisons tongues Posted May 7, 2017 Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 Djuric linked up well with Enqvall at Fleetwood. Seemed to know what each other were going to do and the goal for Paterson was from there work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
