Service.. Service.. CF need to do more than just receive the ball. When we lose it, does he do enough? Does he come deep to receive the ball allowing runners to advance? There's more to being a CF than being on the end of crosses....
 
No. Being match fit at Div 2 level is completely different to being match fit at prem level. Much faster.
that's not match fitness though really, more just adjusting. Something wickham has never really done consistently. He needs a run, not convinced he will score man, if any. But he deserves a shot and will be here next season regardless.
 
Wrong. While the two of them on the pitch together playing the same role, it wasn't even close.
Wrong. Who are you like, it's different opinions that's all. Your opinion is a bit of a woosh mind.
 
N

ope it was from a corner there were defenders on the line
wrong. It was from a free kick just outside the box. Not sure there was anybody on the line, certainly not the far post anyway.

Don't think he needed to be in the 6 yard box anyway, thats where a smaller player would usually house themselves. 6 foot plus striker should attack the ball.

Needs a run agree. Adjusting to pace of prem has a lot to do with fitness e.g you need to run quicker.
 
think you need to have a word with yourself if you think Wickham's play was on another planet, as you put it mate :lol:

Baffling mate, it really is. If Wickham played well tonight then what do you have to do to play bad.
 
I'm just back and I'm still annoyed at the decision. Just me, and everyone else in the ground.
the changes happened and it improved the team, we took over the game and nearly got a point. Certainly not a decision worth dwelling on or rueing imo.

Talking to someone who thinks that we travel away from home and have a 'mob loathing' of one of our own? You're a mess man.
 
Whickham should work harder... Talent is there, I'd like to give him a shake and remind him what he does for a living & how lucky he is..

Certainly did, Johnson was excellent when he came on. And lets get something straight, I don't think Wickham was anything more than bang average tonight. But at least he showed a bit of willing, showed a bit of desire to do something when he had the ball. Jozy did the square root of bot all without the ball tonight.

fair enough. Honestly couldnt even put a fag paper between them personally.

both worked very hard and did their job at times and failed at others.
 
not read through all the posts so apologies if repeating anything here.
i was kind of hoping he would lose his 'ball greedy' side but unfortunately it was still there, always looking to score (not always a bad thing) but at times he needs to look for the pass, spent too long wide right first half i think.
as said, not the best game to judge him on and i would like to see him get a bit of a run.
