TRon Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Has he actually played more than about 130 minutes yet? Is it not too early to comment on whether or not he will make it in this division? Hes had one full game and two cameo appearances off the bench, given the amount of time Gayle & Perez have been given he will score goals in this league. He hasn't had much time on the pitch tbf, I am basing my opinion on what I saw of him last year. He'll be starting soon though, so when the chance comes around he really needs to make an impact.

louistoon Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Never understood the backing he gets on here. He hasn't really done anything to justify it. He's probably received more cards from referees than he has scored goals. Its because (for me) he is the only striker of that type we have got (apart from Murphy but given his strike rate I would rather start Mitro) and Gayle/Diame isn't working. Plus as said above in his only start this season we won 6-0, so I think he at least deserves a few more before we write him off . Play him with Gayle/Perez in the number 10 slot and see how we do.

You would like to think their finishing might be better on another day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 True Faith podcast were raving about Murphy's performance in the cup, they definitely wanted him to play more league games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foluwashola Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 I mean, bit weird if they were raving about it. He looked areet. Would still rather see Mitro given an opportunity to start a couple of games rather than feeding on scraps. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marmoset Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Still early days, hopefully he'll improve over the season, has still young enough to learn. Will always have certain limitations but can hopefully make the best of what he's got. Absurd we relied on him to be our main striker and score our goals last season with hindsight though.

Ronaldo Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 I read it as a hot streak overall, not specifically against Norwich. I like Mitrovic a lot but he's contributed virtually nothing this season, obviously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Caused Norwich all sorts of problems last season. Could be worth a go. Have Norwich still got the same central defenders? Mitro's not going to cause any bother with his pace, then it comes down to whether he can impose himself against championship central defenders with his strength. Question mark for me there still, he's decent, but he's no Andy Carroll. Still not convinced by his finishing either. He deserves a chance though, if he performs he can keep the shirt, if not, then I guess Murphy will deserve the next chance to fill the target man role.

Ronaldo Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Well what's your point? I wasn't being critical of him so much as the 'hot streak' assertion that was admittedly misinterprested. He's contributed nothing yet for which there are several mitigating circumstances. Live with it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
