Nine Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 41 minutes ago, STM said: I've seen at least one howler per game by Schar picking up the ball with no pressure and looking for a pass but absolutely failing in execution, which leads to a counter attack by the opposition and of course Schar himself isn't blessed with pace. I don't mind the long diagonals because there are less risks. The point is that Schars performances have regressed, quite alot...and in an Eddie Howe side, there's rarely a hiding place for a CB because of the expectations placed on them to win their duels. He’s not playing anywhere near the standard he was in 22/23, and he is getting to that sort of age where you might expect dips in form. It’s a shame because when the team is performing he’s usually been a big part of it. As I said though, I don’t think he deserves to be written off as a 3rd/4th choice yet. I feel like he could still perform well enough in a more balanced back 4. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 New contract is a no brainer but I'm tipping the dialogue wheel away from Crucial to Rotation and his chump agent can say "that's what we're after." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamPS Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 2 hours ago, nufc123 said: Wilson has been a fantastic player for us, but do you want to give him a new contract? Schar has played 41, 47 and 30 (so far) games last 3 seasons. If Wilson had that sort of availability giving him a new contract would also be a done deal.

Lush Vlad Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 2 hours ago, Nine said: It’s because oppositions press is focused on him, Burn isn’t a threat with the ball so Schar gets pressed and has passing lanes cut. Another ball player next to him and it’s a different story. It’s not been recent, either. It’s been what teams have been doing to him and then what he’s been doing all season. Moving the ball quickly and accurately and passing out from the back are certainly not what Burn’s good at. Not his game at all Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordie Ahmed Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Schar has been poor this season, especially the passing which has went from being class to a hindrance No issue with him being given a year extension as we won't be able to go out and buy 2-3 CB's but someone of a similar profile is needed in the summer as a priority Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
olliemort Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Need someone with more pace beside him and he would be alot better again. Be a very good third choice cb, both of our cbs badly need upgrading if we are to compete for top 4 places. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weezertron Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 (edited) Another one year contract before phasing him out into the club shop as a male model, and then only a matter of time before Ralph Lauren will tap him up. Edited March 7 by Weezertron Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andycap Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Played well today if burn couldn't get to the ball then he did. One thing his long passing has gone south mind but every now and again he finds a corker out to the wing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
