Sammy silvera coming up on talkSPORT.

I thought we'd decided he was rubbish. Or 'League One standard at best,' or something. Or was that last week? It's hard to keep up these days.

I think (hope..) the majority would seem to have settled on ‘he’s a young lad coming a long way from home to play at a much higher level than he’s used to, and he should be eased into things from the bench, rather than starting every game right from the get go, at the expense of Championship proven quality players such as McGree and Jones’

Much as Carrick has done brilliantly to really turn the dodgy start around, and is now looking every inch the real deal that we hope he is, I think the management team need to take some responsibility for wrongly chucking him in at the deep end.
Anyway, onwards and upwards for the lad now hopefully, with a little bit of the pressure off him.
 
If he’s not starting regularly, might not be a bad idea to let him go on a 6 month loan in January. Regular games in the SPL or L1 would do him some good getting used to being closed down quickly.

I've no problem with throwing him straight away. He looked good in pre-season and I assume was shining in training. They'll have liked what they saw and thought he was ready. He's probably not that far off. A decision made in good faith by someone who knows a good player when he sees one.

Obviously training and matches are very different and the mistake IMO was not realising sooner he wasn't up to pace and taking him out the firing line a bit quicker. Possibly also throwing him alongside Rogers too didn't help, too much inexperience.

I do wonder if he'd put away those big chances he might have done better. Confidence is a funny thing.

He'll come back better I'm sure. Decent cameo off the bench v Sunderland, something to build on.

yes he missed a few big chances and after that hudders game looked garbage. it must have killed his confidence tbh.
