Confirmed Signing Yann Gboho (3 Viewers)

What's that gotta do with him looking so slow? Has he been carrying the house on his shoulders?
A bit of hassle with the move but I don’t imagine he is having to do the painting. He’s always been slow it just looks worse now as the opposition players are so quick.
 
Anytime someone has a poor rub we are told they ain't premier league standard lol
Does my head in! That and a loss being a disaster and a sign that the wheels have fully fallen off 🤦 it's like the wobbles we had last year never happened. It's like us winning 4-1 wasn't a thing. It's like players haven't turned form around before.

Relentlessly and grindingly pessimistic with zero ability to see the wider picture and how far we've come and how well we'll do to even survive. It's gonna be a rough season as we'll loose a load of games however we do.
 
He looks slow and again when he came on we seemed to lose a vocal point up top. I don't like slagging players off so early in their career but he does not look either fit or up to it at the moment. Hope he turns it around soon
 
Needs to change his nickname to the magician. Lads just disappeared.
 
Maybe he should be playing. I’m not sure - he was a last minute pick up at a relatively modest price, so I’ve a fair few doubts about how good he will be.

i think to be throwing his toys out of the pram when he’s been here 5 minutes stinks. After a few months, maybe. If he was KKH, or Torp, or Simms, maybe. I wouldn’t agree with it, but I might understand.

But this player, if he does play, he’d better be decent

He got 13 goals contributions (10+3) last season in 36 games in in Ligue 1 and cup, and 9 (5+4) in 33 games the season before. He is proven quality in one of Europe's big 5 leagues.
 








This is being kept out by Sakamoto, EMC and BTA

And seemingly now, Hamer

Its not premier league standard though is it. He didn't do that shit against PSG.

Its still a step up for him.

But yes I agree there needs to be some level of consistency when it comes to selection.

The fans arnt that stupid.

The French league is miles off the PL. Saying that, I’d start him against Sunderland at this point.
 
Interesting moment yesterday…

He was amongst the subs who were warming up on the touchline. Frank signalled for Hamer to get ready to come on. Gboho ran back with Torp and signalled “👎🏼” towards Frank…

It could be nothing, but didn’t look great given the recent speculation…

Heres the Opta World Leagues Power rankings.

Top 5
1. PL
2. La Liga
3. Bundesliga
4. Serie A
5. Ligue 1

10. Championship

The Championship has topped out at 6th before, surprised to see it down in 10th now, I guess we must have been elite!
2 or 3 teams doing the heavy lifting in Portugal. Outside of that it's absolutely dire.

Is that devaluing our victory last season in a roundabout way,?

No lol. I'm sure the Championship was rated around 7th last time I checked, which was admittedly a while back. If anything I'm saying the league was harder when we won, if you can really pay any attention to this.
 
I can fully see why he threw his toys out the pram. Blokes a Ivory Coast international and was quality for Toulouse in Ligue1

And now hes being kept out by fucking Brandon Thomas Asante and overlooked for a fat pisshead who has the stamina of a middle aged man with heart failure
Thomas Asante is a Ghana international so calling out the Ivory Coast bit doesn’t make much sense.

And Toulouse in Ligue 1 isn’t any guarantee either.

I’m pretty sure Ghobo is better than what we’re playing currently, but if there’s an attitude issue I don’t mind Frank sticking to principles.

Where's his attitude issue at Toulouse or for the Ivory Coast national team. It's up to Lampard and his man-management to get Ghobo on the pitch and performing. Freezing him out indefinitely (which hasn't happened yet) is not an acceptable outcome really in our position.

Obviously it’s dependant on circumstances.

I imagine a lot of our new signings from abroad have come here to play in the premier league, with little prior knowledge or respect for Coventry City. Not hard to see how that could lead to issues if they feel they’re not getting enough minutes.
