You can only play as well as the opposition let you. Unfortunately , we were unable to get that "killer" ball into the box, for Victor or Cauley to capitalise. Plus Doncaster did a good job of marking both of them. Given the team we were forced to put out, a point was a welcome bonus, as in the first half it looked as though Donny were going to beat us.
Been here a few seasons now and still not a regular. Little chance of being one if we go up. For a big guy he gets bullied off the ball to easily. For a striker he fails to have attempts at goal. For a tall guy he wins little in the air.
I like your comment and he’s certainly struggling to impose himself on a game. We are really short up front, but it’s our own decision.
His touch and movement were poor last night but he ran his nuts off and had sod all to work with most of the time - it's all good experience for him and in cameos before last night, such as at Portsmouth, I thought he caused defenders problems. Not ready to start games though yet.
Played like victor the polar bear from the wildlife park up the road lol He was manhandled everytime he got the ball which went unpunished all match they were diving all match which the ref bought we are going to start getting wise to this and start doing the same
The one player in the squad who seems to have gone backwards under Daniel Stendel. I’m sure he was playing better under Hecky
Shows how poor a decision it was in both August and January to go with just two strikers in the squad.
Brown and Thiam can so play in a front 2. That makes 5 strikers is that not enough in league 1 sorry I forget we need 6 wingers, 4 goalkeepers back up centre half to push Jackson for his place on the bench, a centre mid again if Dougals standards are dropping in the dugout. However we have got through this season with only 3 leftbacks I'll never know. Bring back all the number 10s I miss having mallan, knasmullner, Moncur sat not playing but god it would have been worth paying them for a year to do nothing just incase we needed them for a night like last night.
Like supertyke said he has been here 16months he spent last season in the 23s so this is 1st full senior season. Last night was his 1st start for ages and he had little if anything to feed off apart from a half chance where he headed over from cavares cross under pressure.
