That's my starting point and 'everything ' I have seen or heard suggests completely the opposite to your insinuation ? You can also add I've never seen a post criticising Wes's character before yours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'd take posts like this far more seriously if I didn't remember posts on here saying exactly the same about Yannick Bolasie when he was here. He was even then characterised as an all-pace one-trick pony with no potential who'd sink into obscurity when he left for Crystal Palace and he was a couple of years older than Wes. A run in a team that had confidence in him and look where he is now? I'm not saying Wes can achieve the same but I am saying people are far too quick to judge young players.

Me too LB Especially after playing some significant parts and impactin some recent games with real signs of 'breaking through' Ridiculous One thing not to expect from any young player always used to be consistency - that's obviously changed in the 'new era' We are expecting young players to dig us out of a hole that's not their doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say he needs time more than people saying he can't be trusted to play. Not sure where he is going to get that game time from though, maybe he does need another loan spell as Bobby Reid seemed to have benefited, although not yet the finished product. We've all had bad days at work, but I doubt if many of us have 15,000 pairs if eyes watching us and all the (social) media reports too. Not to mention the 100s who don't even go to the game, but post vehemently on OTIB type sites to vent their fury at such poor performances and attempt to explain/justify why he should never be seen in a City shirt again....

I appreciate he is a local lad and helped us in recent weeks, but in our current predicament I'm not convinced he is the answer. Very suprised gladwin wasn't given an opportunity.....all good for giving local lads a go but we have more strength in depth now. as I'm sure we can all agree Wes was awful today....going forward fine you make mistKes but defensively he nearly cost us twice.....one by losing the ball in the box and again when completely ignoring the runner....no excuse for that. im expecting to get shot down for this but I really don't think there is much value in playing him now we have gladwin tomlin etc. A bad day at the office....we all have them.can still have a role/impact for the rest of the season and a useful option in the squad.a lot to learn and think he will..........

MATT BCFC Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 I have seen nothing to suggest that he won't be another Marvin Brown. His final ball really is poor and his finishing isn't great either. I will be happily proven wrong but he was poor from what I hear at two league two clubs last season. Stats seem to back this up as well. If he was signed from another club and didn't come through our academy more people would be saying what I am.

Major Isewater Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 I have n't seen enough of Burns to say whether he'll make it or not ( i suspect he will ) but i have seen enough young players to know that they can't perform consistently like an older pro can . It's mindless negative criticism from 'supporters' which makes it harder for a youngster to break through at our club . Some people live in la la land where players are computer generated and never have problems like lack of confidence , tiredness or injury .

Shtanley Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 Gone out on loan to Fleetwood, slightly strange as I feel he certainly has something to offer and should be in and around the squad. Oh well, hope he does well. Shame his EURO hopes seem to have faded away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully it's a sign there is another face coming in soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeh Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 he needs to work on his final ball and finishing, we can't let him do that here in a match situation due to the relegation battle, so makes perfect sense to send him down a level Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I would suggest his hopes of squeezing in the squad for Wales would be enhanced by going there and doing well. It would only take a few goals, assists and an injury to a forward and he could be right back in with a shout. Good luck to the boy!p and he gets to play at Highbury every two weeks. Not many can say that, including Arsenal! :laugh:! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
