Great performance so far. We should be 3-0 or 4-0 up. Terrible misses by Arma and Archer. No fault of Still’s . We have to get a striker in the next window or Still might as well give up
I’m not saying Onuachu would be the answer and we’ll never know how he’d do in the championship but he outscored the rest of the strikers we have in the PL last season albeit only just. I certainly don’t afford him godlike status neither do I criticise Stewart. If Stewart was injury free I’d say he’s probably better than tall Paul.
Having said that I agree Nick that he wanted out after a less than impressive stay and we wanted him off the payroll due to his high wages. However neither tall Paul is responsible for his high wages and lack of service nor Roscoe responsible for being signed with a terrible injury record. They were both panic buys by SR because they hadn’t identified a suitable striker in time.
As for some of Tall Paul’s 6 goals being against relegation threatened clubs, how many of our strikers have done that this season. I’d have sooner kept Onuachu and got rid of Archer and not signed Downs
Onuachu has scored 6 goals and 1 assist in 8 Turkish Superleague games for Trabzonspor who are second in the league. He’s also scored 2 cup goals in 4 games
Okay he wasn’t good enough for the PL but we might have seen a more productive return from him if we’d given him the service he needed
I suspect he got pi**ed off with his time here particularly under Martin and wanted to go. Who could blame him
I’d settle for a draw. This is more or less the entire team and manager that got 92 points last season and only missed out on promotion to the PL by a late Sunderland winner having been the better team Their position in the league now is a false one due to Selles so even though we need a win, a draw wouldn’t be a bad result
You have to ask is it worth complying with FFP regs
I’m guessing clubs will get away with financial irregularities because the football authorities are 💩 scared of setting a precedent and having to apply it to Manchester City
