Simply not good enough at this level, surely Poyet must see this.

Can finish but needs 4-5 clear cut chances to do so.

Work rate is average and doesn't read the game at this level.

Yet the commentator says MOTM so are you there watching his performance ?

Barnes is fine for the squad but we as bloody desperate for another striker for christs sake.

I heard he was more or less MOM for 5Live and SCR. Keyboard warriors know best.

I'm not a Barnes hater in any shape or form. But I do not think he's a good enough player at this level, and in this team. I think he and Dicker are hard working players who have been with us for a while and who probably understand what Gus wants them to do the best because they've been doing it for years. But when it really comes to it, they're the weak links in our team now and when you have signed players like Crofts, Hammond, Dobbie and Lopez, it's time to play them.

The majority of fans really like Inigo Calderon, but the difference made by the higher quality of Bruno has been immense. Same with Bridge over Painter at left back, Kuszczak over Ankergren in goal. We've come a long way in a short period of time, and there's still work to be done, that's obvious. For me, it's time to move on from playing Dicker and Barnes now because they're just not the players who are going to help us win Promotion to the Premier League.

Gus made a tough call with Navarro, he's going to have more tough calls to make in the summer and rightly so. We still have League 1 players in the squad and the evolution of our playing squad is still a little way behind the evolution of the club off the field, but say whatever you want to, we're competitive in every game. We've lost 1-0 again tonight which is a shame but it's only one goal and we've had ample chances to have equalised. It isn't all doom and gloom.

He failed to score, and as Brian Clough said, "I pay you to score goals, now get in the box" and he has not scored since when as against the chances he has had? That my friend is and always will be the bottom line for a forward

His goals to chances ratio is poor.

Very poor indeed. It's all very well the radio saying he was MOTM tonight, but the stats tell me that his goal ratio this season is 1 every 6 games. If we harbour realistic play off hopes then a new striker is required.
