Well he should do if he's fit !!

Showed what we had been missing in those last 10 minutes at Bristol.
Crucial to how we play, a handful for defenders and holds the ball up. Just started scoring a few also 👍
Get him back in Mr Carrick 👍
Lath is more effective from the bench when defenders are tiring and the game is more stretched 👍
 
I agree with the OP, + I am a massive fan of Josh however, as much as I didn't think bringing LL in from the start yesterday was the best option I do think with more game time, experience and maybe another full pre season that LL will be come a real handful with hopefully goals coming regularly from him.
 
I agree I feel LL has more to come. If Crooks was not available I think LL would get his chance with Josh.

We just look a bit better with Josh. he wins alot of 50/50 challenges.
 
The pace of LL I feel is more for the last 30 minutes when their defenders are tired, he's got pace to burn and can outrun most championship defenders.

Agreed. He showed he's become an important part of the current squad & worth his position in the team.

They may compliment each other if twin strikers are ever used again.

I'd like to see ELL in the support role behind Coburn. I think he'd have the pace & desire to get up to Coburn while he's holding the ball up and then make it easier to retain the ball or run in behind & stretch the defence.
 
Heard he has a hernia issue which will no doubt need keeping an eye on. Probably why he didn't start.
Think people are been a bit unfair on L L as the service he got was non existent. Two opportunities he had he played good ball in for others. Especially the one we're Jones was offside yet again. Someone needs to explain the rules to him.
As mentioned above I would like to see Coburn and Lath start together.
 
Coburn should start when fit. He is getting better and better. When it clicks goals wise - and it will - we will have some centre forward on our hands.
LL is not a dud, but he should be a bench option.
 
Unfortunately ELL is not looking strong enough thus far.
Coburn has to start. His battling style sets the tempo and tone for the rest of the team.
Carrick dropped a right clanger leaving him out on Sat.
 
ELL looked a bit lost on Saturday. He hardly touched the ball. Earlier in the season he looked so potent. I hope his lack of game time hasn't dented his confidence.

Just like Josh need game time to show his worth so does L.L as he has been used as a sub for weeks.
I think his service on Saturday was poor.

Pity we don’t have any replacements for Fry and McNair..both haven’t really been at the races this season

That'll be the same Fry and McNair who had predominantly played in the 10 games before Saturday that we'd won 8 of?
The same ones that were excellent against Leicester, Sunderland, Birmingham, Norwich etc?
Or do we only count games where we've lost to judge players?
