Was a little bit of tongue in cheek. But I didn't need 10 games to work out if Michael Dawson was quality. Took 10 minutes.
Omur was good in a good team though. He just isn’t a player who will carry you through those bad moments, relied on others to platform him. Matazo looked very good in a terrible team. Just because there is a situation where it’s applicable doesn’t mean it’s true
Completely forgot about Omur. Doesn’t look like he’s up to much in Turkey, although getting plenty of minutes on the pitch. He’s another I think would flourish in this team, really quick and sharp thinking and quick feet, could see him doing pretty well in the fast counter attacks.
I think Ömür would do okay as a number 10 or right-winger in this system but he’s not starting ahead of Gelhardt or Belloumi. He’s also reportedly on £35,000-a-week. He was eager and I can’t fault his attitude but he lacked physicality and wasn’t particularly quick either. He also didn’t contribute enough in terms of goals and assists and Gelhardt has shown important that is. You can have talent but Gelhardt has backed it up with good numbers and Ömür just didn’t.
He'd be playing central so you’d be looking at him instead of Crooks or Palmer. One of those is on the naughty step and the other hasn’t really got going this season. We’d be a stronger team with Omur in it and I’m sure the goals and assists would have come. He put plenty of balls on a plate that first half season if our players could have hit a boat in a bay with a bouncing bomb he could easily have been in double figures with assists, that wasn’t on him. The Walter era tells us nothing at all, might as well discard that.
