    He is not a striker/ forward player.
    Way too lightweight.

    I’m not saying he’s without skill, but there is no way he should ever be played up front. Complete waste of time and i find it concerning that Schopp thinks it’s even an option.

    Would take a Vaz Te type forward over him any day.

    Yeah I don’t see it at all. Seems well below the required standard in that position.

    His touch and skill on the ball is good but yeah I agree, he’s not physical enough for this league.

    Yep, how can he go from nowhere near the first 11 last season to a regular so far this season. Has he got summat on Schopp already?! :D

    Honestly think we would be better playing 2 upfront and packing out midfield at the moment.

    I agree, must be embarrassing if you’re a striker and the left wing back who couldn’t get a game last season is being picked in your position before you!

    Hopefully he will fall well down the striker pecking order once the 2 Belgians are fit...

    I think we need a tricky/pacy type of foreward that can beat a man and open things up,

    We are very narrow. Kitching did his best to give us some width on the left in the second half, but has the limitations you might expect from a central defender when he got into good positions. What I'd give for an Adam Hammill!!!

    Correct Odour is no forward. Lightweight forward line tonight and it showed.

    Anything to do with him playing in the right of the 3?

    Maybe understand it if the intention is to cut inside and shoot, but that's far from what we are seeing anyway.

    Oduor has had every bit of confidence smashed out of him and he plays like that too. If that were me being puahed up front id be bustin a gut to make that place my own but he seems completely withdrawn. I think theres inly goalkeeper we beed to try and get him playing now.

    Ipswich have a good player like that, think he’s called Chaplin or summat.
