    Seen alot of posters saying he offered nothing today. I thought he did okay in the striker role the 1st time he has played there. Put the 1st goal on a plate for mowatt to score some good link up play with hedges for the 2nd for hedges to cross and Woodrow to score. He did tire towards the end but was Involved in both goals.

    If he could finish he would be some player, but he just opts for power and hope. Feel he would struggle to make the step up to the championship if we make it.

    I still have no idea what his best position is, unless it’s bench-pressing heavy weights just behind the centre- forward.

    Mamadoodoo started the season so well didnt he, admittedly against so called easier Lg One teams. But even that early season promise has faded now into disappointment and frustration yet again.
    Can we afford to keep trying him in that 2 up front thing, in the hope that he and Woodrow will click ?. I agree he was involved in both of the goals today, but I think we've got every right to be expecting more goals from Thiam himself, him havent we!.

    7 goals and 6 assists from the wing isn't too shabby he was in the top 10 for chances creates this season in league one a few weeks back. Think mowatt was no 3.

    Ok thats fair enough, but we're also asking whether he can do this in the league above. And thats where we all want to be and to stay in, isnt it!.
    Thiam isnt on his own here though, I think the jury is still out on most of this squad when it comes to trying to judge Champship standards etc.

    Yeah im not sure he can, out of the players stendel has avalible I'd say Davies,cavare,pinnock,Lindsay and mowatt would make the step up and possibly Woodrow and mcgeehan.

    Im not sure about Toby Carvery (Cavare lol) or Keifer Moore either when it comes to us wanting to compete in the Champship!.

    Most improved player for me this season was poor at the beginning but he is class lately. Had another good game today his wingers infront of him (Brown and green) went AWOL and cavare is still only 23 he will only get better. Not sure about moore he is another maybee.

    Remember the Fulham game where Toby's stupidity cost us a winning game, and it ended up as another loss!.
    Well I agree hes not doing that anymore and he isnt that 'liability' we used to see him as, so credit to him for that at least. But I still dont see him as one of our players who maybe could and should compete at the higher level.

    Impossible to run with pace when your legs meet at the knees.

    He got sent off in the 1st half we still had a long way to go yes we were one nil up but we still could have ended up losing even had he not been sent off.
    Bit pointless going over last season it was a disaster from top to bottom. you could say moore missed a open net at elland road. Davies should have saved brownhills looping header which took 5 minutes to end up in the net mowatt should have been given a chance instead of played out of position then loaned out....
