Pilko Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Just now, midds said: Always staggered that there never seems to be a young kid (18/19) who plays as CF for the reserves or U21s that could come in and help out to give him the break he desperately needs. There's Wilson, Wood and Gayle. That's it. Like zero other strikers that are coming through and could benefit from PL minutes. We're still sparse as fuck in all areas as a club. I was just thinking this earlier, there's absolutely no underbelly to the squad whatsoever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khalidao Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Terrible player. And you cannot even praise his off the ball work. Just terrible positioning, touches, passing and finishing. 25m down the drain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 I’d make him a priority sale for summer while we can still get a fee for him from a bottom five PL side. He’s clearly not going to fit for our future so ship him out as soon as possible so we can bring two new strikers in Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not entirely surprising if you consider the fact the club has only lived to exist in the PL without any regard to any other level of squad. Nothing else has mattered to Ashley. Just keep the club in the PL, that's been the mission for over a decade and fuck the consequences such as the one we're talking about now. No standards within the club, no talent coming through, no regard for anything other than staying up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 We’re desperate for Wilson to come back like. Feel like Spurs could push on and commit bodies forward today knowing there was no threat coming their way. Saying that, Wood’s still a better option up top than Gayle and unfortunately thats our only options at the moment. I really wouldn’t be against binning him in the summer though, I don’t think he’s even a good back up option. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wood needs taken out of the side, but he can't be really. It's difficult to solve the problem too because you can't backfill with too many players and tell them they won't be playing often as they walk through the door.

Fantail Breeze Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Not sure what game people were watching, he was the best player on the park. Things like goals and assists count for zilch when you have stats like headed duals won. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Personally think he's been very poor and the winning run, for the most part, was in spite of his performances. I can see some positives that he brings but as a goal threat he offers very little, and ultimately that's what he's there for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
