Lrrr Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Didn't help him that Bobby dropped back to a CAM in a 4231 so had to try leading the line alone when we were trying to contain them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Negan Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 He’s such a waste of money. It’s a bit of a concern that we have Diony but Woodrow is preferred over him... we wasted the January window if Diony doesn’t step up. We needed a striker and RB that we’re ready to step in. We didn’t sign a RB and the striker we’ve signed looks as though he won’t ever start a bloody game... Work in the morning but im getting 30 cans of thatchers in and drowning my sorrows. This is exactly why football should be on a Saturday, you get a day to recover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrahamC Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Knew someone would post this. Last week we put on a guy who was unfit & struggled, this week with Diedhiou clearly tiring we put him on to close down & work hard, which he did. Not sure how it was his fault that Wright lost Lasogga for the first and Bryan did the same for the second, but hey, he’s the scapegoat every time he plays, isn’t he?

tinman85 Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Diony must be on his way back to France already. Another waste of wages. We will soon be bringing Taylor on again. Why didn't we just go for it in January? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DownendRed97 Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Didn't even look up for it when he came on, weak in the tackle, poor touch...a loan move that hasn't worked out might be an understatement...shame because when he played against Derby at home earlier in the season I thought he might have been decent for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodrow was the bloke we brought on up front. And didn't close down. Once. At all. Ever. Work hard? You are having a laugh. I know you are not a fan of Taylor, and I forget his injury details, but if he's in plaster, on crutches, with a knee brace, he'd still be more effective than Woodrow. Odd that you can't see this.

He’s not had much of a chance either....that might be his doing, e.g. not putting it in during training etc. I just don’t get the constant criticism for results that he’s really not had too much say in.

Fiale Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 He came to us hoping to improve / put himself in the shop window and potentially gain a contract. He has seen our signings since, has hardly started or come on as sub so knows he has no future here. So not sure what kind of performance you would expect from him, I think I'd even be tempted to just dial it in. Shame as earlier in the season when he came on there were glimpses of a good player, but hey, not all things work out - what's happened to Engvall now - not even on the bench ?

Lack of Action Man Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Where on earth is Matty Taylor? Is he still injured? We need his panache and tenacity from the bench late in games. He winds defenders up, makes them uncomfortable late on. We miss that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davefevs Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 12 minutes ago, JonDolman said: Woodrow has shown he offers very little as an impact sub. So i was surprised and disappointed to see him come on. Unless he suddenly improves a lot, then it looks like a bad loan signing. No problem with that. But for me he is no impact sub as he does not have pace or strength to unsettle defenders. There was one point in the game where a defender miscontrolled the ball and he could have got to it but was way too slow to react and did not even look determined to win it when he did start to make a move towards the ball. For me he is behind diony, Taylor and engvall when all are fit. So 7th choice striker with diedhiou, reid and Duric as well. I think you’re right in your ordering. Assuming Diony and Engvall will be our striker subs on Wednesday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
