I think it's time Luke Steele was given another chance.

    I mean, what has the lad done wrong? He got the man of the match in the last game he played, and kept a clean sheet. His shot stopping is on par, if not better with Mullers and his kicking his way better. The only thing that I thought separated the two was the dominance of the area and coming for crosses, however, in hindsight, I probably rate Steele higher on this than I do Muller, who constantly flaps and mis-punches.

    Get Steele back in!

    I think they should have at least played Steele for t' cup games.</p>

    We got a good keeper there, and if we're not careful he'll get p*ssed off and leave.

    No idea. Definitely not at work, though. Honest.

    Can't fault the logic.

    One of the better Davey signings who competes with another of the better Davey signings for the position we didn't really need permanent cover for.

    Waste of transfer money and wages as it stands. Cash in on Muller - if people are still interested - and get Steele in.

    Absolutely 100% correct

    Davey doesn't even put him on the bench most of the time.

    That's a big fallacy, that people need to eliminate fast. He's good, but he's not brilliant. He flaps; his kicking is woeful and he too is prone to the odd mistake. He's not one of the best in the league. Hahnemann is better. Lee Grant is better. Kieran Westwood is better and after seeing him this season, I personally think Luke Steele is better.

    Was Muller to blame?

    I've no idea as I did not go. I've spoken to to a couple of poor feckers that did and all they mentioned was that Anderson and Leon were "pathetic".

    RE: Was Muller to blame?

    I think Muller's big problem is a comminucation breaqkdown with Moore and Souza. They just don't seem on the same wavelength. How maqny goals have conceded because between the three of them they can't decide who's ball it is. Darren & Dennis are not protecting him like he seems to want them to so Muller should take charge and dominate the box like he did before his injury.

    Any defence containing Calamity Denis will concede goals. Weakest of weak links.

    Who's really at fault here?

    From what I've seen on here, the only player who is immune from criticism at the moment is Iain Hume.

    He's been poor.

    I think TBH , that only Hassell, JCR and Moore and probably Foster have been owt like recently. At a push Muller.
