    He looks lost and totally lacking confidence at the moment. He’s a relatively young man. His laid back attitude makes him seem like he doesn’t care, I don’t think that’s the case, but doesn’t help his cause.

    We either cut our losses on Fally, or send him out on loan to build up confidence and experience.

    Fally looks totally disinterested most times I have seen him and he could benefit from a loan-out to say Exeter City who are close enough for a recall if we need him. As an aside considering all of the hype around Semenyo moving on up from Bournemouth do we have a sell on clause for him?

    A lot of us on here said that Semenyo was not up to the Premiership level and boy how he has proved us wrong. Some of his goals have been real class and today was yet another example of how he has risen to meet the demands of top level football both in his attitude and goal scoring, and you can't ask more of him. Rumours abound about several of the top teams vying for his services and the possible 20% sell-on clause might help us to bring in better talent and get rid of Fally. The lad has done well and I thank him for his time with BCFC. :emoticon-0137-clapp

    I have to say I was one of those who didn’t rate him at first.
    The first thing I saw him do after LJ recalled him from Newport was get himself sent off vs Derby.
    I was massively underwhelmed.

    I thought he had power, strength, height and speed, but didn’t have a football brain, he was extremely raw but seemed keen, at times too keen, hence that first tackle that got him a red card. I also was concerned that he was a bit injury prone.
    As he progressed with us you could see he had potential, but I must admit I thought we did well to get what we did for him. My goodness how he’s improved, especially this season. From the snippets I’ve seen he looks a monster. Good luck to the lad.

    Agreed and you have to give credit to the coaching staff at Bournemouth for how they have developed him, he was good for us but now wow

    He showed glimpses for us, I seem to remember one goal he scored away from home, think it was Luton, or possibly Fulham which had everyone purring, but now it’s most games.

    I always liked him. He gave me Jacki vibes. When he had the ball running at them you were on your edge of your seat not knowing what he was about to do. Don’t think he did in his early career.
    Shame that Covid limited us to what we actually saw of him live in the flesh.
    Suspected he would do well in the prem as he has that power and strength that can’t be taught only fine tuned. He’s making a lot of us who thought Scott was going to reap us a big sell on fee.
    Hope he moves on to make us more money. But would not be surprised if he moves on again for even more money after his next move.

    Let's hope we can fine tune Armstrong.
