Odd that this non performing player has been on the bench so often and given short cameos at the end of a number of games then. If CH doesn’t rate him as good enough he shouldn’t be sticking him on the bench. We’ll see if having Andone fit will see Locadia dropped completely, in which case your...

The fact that you can make this excellent point, as what I assume is a tongue in the cheek comment, is not that encouraging for the rest of the season, there is no plan B :down:

Not suggesting he should play instead of Murray as we play to Murray’s strengths and won’t change the system, that is clear, but maybe he should get to play with him for a game or two? I live in hope that when Gross and Propper are back CH might take the brakes off our 10 men behind the ball...

This is what CH said when we signed him “We brought him in because we have found it difficult to get goals and we’re not a team who has ability in the central positions to really stretch teams. Glenn and Tomer are classic number nines and what Jurgen will give us is the ability to stretch...

Well that will count you out on your discussion in this thread then

So beyond criticism for you then, again your perogative, and no you haven’t answered the question as to why we sign strikers we can’t and won’t give a run to.

You’ve also said we can’t change the formation to suit a striker and I don’t think I’ve seen your answer as to why we continue to sign strikers that don’t suit the system we play.

Ricky Van Wolfswinkel was another expensive player who Hughton wasted millions on as well. I think it’s perfectly reasonable to question his ability in signing strikers but criticising anything Hughton does is a no no for some on here. Defenders, wingers, midfielders and keepers yes, he has a...

So who is responsible for signing a player who doesn’t fit the way we play then? Hughton has no say in the matter? If we are not going to change the way we play what is the point in signing a player who is not like Murray and is not given a run because of it?

I think you might have struggled to find that many on NSC who thought Barnes produced the goods when he was here. Slagged off by some during games and loads after it. One **** in a pub after the game tried to tell me it was Barnes fault we got thrashed at Liverpool in the cup. Edna Krabappel...

No idea what your point is, we bought the wrong player for the way we currently play. You can carry on making out this is Locadia’s fault, your perogative. The witch hunt on NSC irritates the **** out of me. Barnes and Guy Butters all over again.

If he can’t play like Murray he will never fit into CH’s current tactics though, so still wouldn’t get game time.

Yep, no plan B will feck over all forwards who don’t play like Murray. Begs the question, why buy them?

Hard to shine as a forward over a 15 min spell in a team that hardly ventures over the halfway line and when the ball comes it’s normally from a hoof which requires a Murray type player. I’m not going to argue the point any further as I know am very much in a minority on here and as he isn’t...

Disagree strongly. I can remember the Coventry game, he scored. The away game at United, he played well. The West Ham game he scored, goal was incorrectly disallowed. City away - any forward was fecked we had about 15% possesion and 10 men behind the ball. Huddersfield away (?) played as a...

Never really given a chance, so hard to argue that he’d be better off leaving
