1 goal and 1 assist, high xG, has over 3 shots per 90, has good creativity data, gets on the ball in good positions including nearly 6 touches per 90 in the opposition box, has good pressing data. All of that in just 559 minutes played. Him not playing is a disgrace, all because of a mistake against Ipswich where he should've never been put in a position to make. Getting beyond sick and tired of the clubs treatment of certain players. Why does Seelt not get a sniff? Why is Ekwah starting after that shambles midweek? Why the **** is Burstow starting over OUR OWN PLAYERS? 2-0 defeat today.
I’m also going to be livid if this persistence with Jobe costs us getting Rigg on a professional deal. Things move quickly in football and can easily see him being tempted elsewhere and us getting very little for him.
Mate as much I think MB should be given more time than most, I can’t get my head round the faith in Burstow by him and TM.
Great thread as usual @RTB, never fail to impress wit your match day threads. Not keen on that line up. Mowbray will have planned and set up for that, or very similar line up. I would have mixed it up a bit....Jobe or Ekwah, not both, and Rigg starting. Maybe tinker with the defence a bit.... O'Nien as cdm maybe. Give TM something else to think about....we all know it takes him a while to switch to a plan B. Burstow.....bloody hell man. Still think we've got enough to get something, but not confident of a win.
I'm just basing it on the lack of accountability some players are allowed to have. For some players it's one mediocre performance and you're benched for the foreseeable, for others it's play however you want it doesn't matter you'll be playing next game. To me that just breeds complacency and we'll lose games because of it.
Slightly odd lineup, but then some of the players were looking knackered at Huddersfield. Maybe there's reasons for not starring Rusyn. Good to see Mundle starting. Hopefully Ba can come on after having a break. Plenty of options to mix it up mid-game too.
Cmon mate, Rigg is 16 and still small in.stature. he's maybe not ready to start and has been told this season he's being eased in, acclimatised into squad and then next season he will feature more regularly
He might not be here next season though? In his limited game time you can't tell me he looks out of place at all whereas someone like Ekwah has looked out of place in the championship since October and he doesn't get dropped.
Just for once I’d like to see us try something different. Hoping Mundle sticks to his side and doesn’t drift in all the time.
Feel pretty deflated looked at that team to be fair. There are some cracking players in our squad, no doubt about that, but team doesn’t inspire me too much. he’s been out forever, and would take a while to get match fit, but I think the inclusion of Evans would allow Neil to have more of an impact higher up the pitch, and would also force other midfielders in our team to up their game, at the moment it feels like whoever is fit, plays.
Hoping Mundle & Burstow form an instant partnership and do the business. Disappointed Rigg hasnt been given a chance and if the rumours are true Patto can fk off as far as I am concerned. I think all of our players have shown they can perform well so hoping they get professional and start doing it away from home the soft tw*ts.
