What has Uche done wrong ?

This is what we keep hearing, he doesn't fit Wilders style of play. However, Wilders plan B is clearly to just throw everything at the opposition, and there's obviously no problem with that. However in these instances, such as last night, it would make far more sense for me to throw big Uche up top and get amongst the tiring defenders, and hopefully create space and chances for the other attackers. If they don't take these chances thats their issues.

Last night I just thought with all four strikers being quite similar players ( I haven't included Coburn), these just seemed to get in each others way. I for one would keep him and loan Coburn out.
Completely agree with that and despite 'Wilders style of play' we are still outside the play off zone !!!!
 
The service, like against Reading, was down to their poor positional play, far too easy to mark.

As for Uche, he needs to sort himself out. A footballer who can't last more than an hour is no good if you're serious about challenging for the play offs.
He doesn't need to last the full 90 mins though does he, he can still do a job for us playing just a first or second half when required? Like coming on last night when we needed something different. I doubt he'll be on a massive salary so why not have him around in our efforts to make the play offs?
 
I agree - He offers something different, and that goal against Mansfield was brilliant and showed that there is more to him than just a physical presence.

I do trust in Wilder though.
