Desperate for another quality CM. It's somewhere I think we need to bite the bullet and spend some money rather than bringing in a development player.Hackney missing is HUGE, he is our best player, simple as that.
Also means that we have to play Howson and Barlaser together, which against teams that play on the front foot, exposes our defence too much. The odd bad game's are starting to creep in more and more with Jonny unfortunately.
Is he our best player though?Hackney missing is HUGE, he is our best player, simple as that.
Struggling to think of a better oneIs he our best player though?
Mcgree possiblyWho could you argue is better than Hackney??
Didnt they do the same with Crooks last yearIf Coburn has a hernia injury he needs surgery rather than sitting him on the bench hoping it goes away. Ridiculous.
Yes but had Akpom and brought in Quality in Jan.Didnt they do the same with Crooks last year
Christmas this year?It's not so much who is the best player, but who is the most valuable to the team. They are of equal value to the team as there's nobody else that brings as much quality in their respective positions in the squad.
Carrick has said that Hackney will not be fit for wednesday, but will be back before Christmas.
Absolutely, unequivocally, YES. He will have a great career in the game spent in top division football.Is he our best player though?
jones, mcgree, hackney, smith or dijk, obrien, lenny, paddy and forss would have all made a big difference on their own.
fry looked worse than clarke. he hasn't kicked a ball for a year hardly and was pulling fry out of it all the time. once clarke is fit and we have fully fit right backs. fry wont get a look in anymore.
barlaser is weak, back up player at best. obrien and hackey would dominate howson and barlaser.
forss, mcgree, jones i'd rather see any of them on rather than greenwood and rogers.
engle, people round me(season ticket) think we dont pass to him when he's in acres because hes...erm not very good. i'm starting to agree. hes not impressing me. very poor every week.
basically we have a squad which doesnt seem massively different in class when you look at it on individual ability, but collectively the guys out are far stronger when playing together than the team we saw saturday.
Fry is a weird one. He does have these games sometimes where he looks absolute gash (like he got out of bed the wrong way). There were times on Saturday where his body position was all wrong and looked like he wouldn't be able to get a challenge in or get laced by the opposition player. Other times he looks pretty solid and a decent championship player. I don't think he'll get a chance in the prem, unless it's with us.I prettt much agree with this word for word. I would love it if a bid came in for Fry and we all moved on. I think he needs the move too
