    We can’t afford to carry players, he isn’t worth a place at present , sorry but that’s the way it is.

    But if he went to a league one team like Eisa at the beginning of the season and played well scoring goals. Would people be complaining that we should of kept him here?

    I would of thought come Jan we will have the other youngster fit to take his place as homegrown or recall another and send him out on loan. Just we can’t do anything at the moment.
    He was probably only used as Marley Watkins was not match fit on Friday. Who I don’t rate was a niggly in your face player that unsettled Barnsley defence a bit like Taylor in the first half on Friday.

    Taylor had plenty of chances and proved he couldn't score goals at this level. I agree with the decision to move him on.

    Eisa, on the other hand, was never given a chance. I am more frustrated about that than Taylor. We may well find out next season whether Mo can score goals in the Championship.

    Maybe they would , wouldn’t make it the wrong thing to do though would it? , when you consider Mo wasn’t given a chance here but Semenyo has , and he obviously isn’t ready, nor has he , unlike Mo shown the ability to score at any level , it just seems a bit odd to me.

    Yeah considering we barely saw Eisa, seeing him bang them in in League One is starting to feel a little bit of a bad decision... Big gap between the 2 leagues mind.

    I think it’s pretty obvious that Eisa did not fit into the way we want our strikers to play

    Which surely begs the question, why sign him in the first place?

    Not all transfers work out. Like life there is no guarantees

    There is a big gap , if we’d seen more of him maybe we’d be more sympathetic with the decision to let him go, as we didn’t it seems he wasn’t really given a chance.

    He wasn’t given a chance here though was he, admit there’s a gap in quality between the divisions , but I do feel his face just didn’t fit.

    Yes it probably didn’t or he couldn’t do what was demanded of him. Either one would see out of the squad and not required

    Nah of course, that's when measuring how good they are though. Surely if he didn't fit into the way we wanted our strikers to play, that's the sort of thing you'd know in advance? I know it's not as simple as this but in general you know what type of player a player is when you sign them, that's less of a gamble is it not?

    But history shows that this isn't the case, there have been many transfers have not worked out. Every transfer is a gamble
