Dwight Gayle (now playing for Hibernian)


Recommended Posts

He's literally contributed nothing to where we are this season. Would have been better off with hindsight snapping Fulham's hands off in August and going with Joselu & Perez as the strikers.

Fair point, though we’d have all kicked-off if he’d gone without replacement and it would have been a hell of a risk (that said, doubt Mitro would have done any worse if he’d played more).

He's playing on the shoulder constantly, even when his nearest man is 30 yards away. He isn't going to work in Rafa's system, he isnt strong enough to play alone. It's sad but it isn't going to work out for him. Plus he has mystery issues that have always been vague and mystical.

What should be happen is he should come deeper to get the ball and turn and the other forwards go beyond him. If that actually ever happened it would be like witchcraft. :lol:

 

The general IQ of the side is low hence poor match management and endless panic.

He's just not very good at this level. If someone in the Championship gives us our £10m back in the summer then thank him for promotion and wish him luck.

He doesn’t even try for balls in the air man. When we’re camped in their half often times he’s just waiting as an outlet on the wing somewhere and ball cleared centrally ends up back in defenders possession. He’s worthless.

I'd play one of the kids or a winger out of position over Joselu and Gayle at the minute. Hopefully Slimani means we don't need to resort to that, but if he's unanavailable for any games, I don't think these two have shown anything to warrant a place. The service has been limited fair enough, but they show very little of any substance on or off the ball and miss match-winning chances.

Think that's harsh. What is he meant to do with long balls up to Sakho and Tomkins. Don't get me wrong he wasnt good, but he's a poacher/finisher and has nothing to feed off.

 

He's had chances that a poacher/finisher should be poaching/finishing the last month and he's failed badly at that too.
