    Are doing well this weekend.
    Larcheche made 2 assists in the 4 -2 win at Dundee United.

    Whilst Kelman scored 2 at Blackpool in Orients win.

    Kelman is certainly the sort of player we would be looking at to buy in the summer. I assume we will bring him back and give him a go at least in preseason.

    Has he just found his level with Orient or is he now mature enough for the Championship.

    Who knows . I don't

    Kelman scores goals. I'd definitely get him back for next season.

    Strikers success can be as much on the system the team plays around them (look at Chris Wood this season at Forest),

    I have no idea how Orient play but this may be contributing to his success, our one up front has left nearly every forward we've had struggling.

    Would be great for him to come back and be a success,

    Yeah, strikers need chances to be made for them, but they also need to be able to take the chances that come their way. Kelman seems to have that abillity.

    Our current striking options are not that great.

    I saw a bit of Kelman against Man City in the cup. I think even they were impressed with him. He had an impact on the game with his aggressive press and fearlessness taking on defenders. He's definitely matured into something much better than we saw at Loftus Road.

    I've seen quite a few of Kelman's goals for Orient and he has a knack of anticipating where the ball is going, definitely has a 'poacher's' instinct. He can hardly do worse than our current crop...

    Hit the nail on the head there! The system we play creates very little for a lone striker

    I don't understand this at all. I'd love to be proved wrong but he has failed to make the breakthrough with every manager since Warburton. Scoring a few goals in League 2 and then League 1 is all well and good but he has not shown enough desire or quality to succeed in the Championship. Move on and let him go.

    He’s 23, free (to us) and the top goalscorer in the league below excluding penalties. We’d be absolutely mental to not be having a look at him in pre-season. Maybe he isn’t up to it. Maybe he’s kicked on as young players do.

    Larcheche Is the one for me.
    He often looked Ok and we seem short of left backs

    You’d think Dykes would be tearing it up in league 1.

    He couldn’t tear up an envelope.

    Never gets any time.
    Now injured...no I don't know how either.

    Whatever we got for him...we made out like bandits.
    ( I believe we did well out of Armstrong too)

    One for the future, or to cash in on...

    Not fussed if Santos comes back...

    Thought we'd ditched this waste of space...

    Taylor Richards looks like he has put on about five stone!

    If you look at all Kelmans goals this season they are pretty much all tap ins. Be lucky to get five all season in the Championship.

    That’s the art of being a goal scorer being in the right place at the right time & doesn’t matter how you score them

    That'd make him second top goal scorer at the club!

    Kelman would’ve stuck that chance Frey had at Coventry away. Something of a sliding doors moment for the season.
