Why would one appearance for the U21s be “on the CV”? Senior players make appearances for youth teams all the time for fitness/sharpness reasons.

He played vs Spurs because he hadn’t had any minutes yet, it was in the cup, and his pace was always going to be useful against their high line. Did well. Then he started vs Swansea and did nothing. It’s not odd at all, he got a chance, did alright, then failed to follow it up.

His time will come. But that’s what happens when you have 3 £££ strikers for one position

6-0 in 30 mins 😂😂😂

What are you saying :ROFLMAO: Kitching and Thomas weren't invited? Or refused to go? Not sure which is worse.

Collins was on the bench in the cup. He'll be on the bench. Hope Dovin still has his confidence, otherwise I fear he'll be another addition to the goalkeeper graveyard we seem to be collecting.

The thing with Kitching is we signed him as Barnsley’s club captain on deadline day. That is a recipe for getting shafted on the fee no matter where the player is coming from. He’d get far less criticism if he cost a million or two less.

Nah. Playing on the left as an inside forward is his best position. And how many goals are we actually conceding down the left? Not many, our right hand side is the much bigger issue.

Tbf I think Binks might be better going forward than Bidwell. Would probably take time to adapt though.

What are people even arguing about? Handbag city in here

Haji is on for 15/16 league goals again without even playing that well- if he hit 20 this year he’d obviously be worth more than £7.7m. Simms is out form but after 19 goals last year any decent return this year (15+) he’d easily be worth more than £3.5m. Sakamoto was less than £2m, he’s worth...

Wright, Simms, Sakamoto Probably Bassette & Thomas Maybe even Dovin and Torp. also, just because we don’t get a “return” on a player doesn’t mean the money is wasted.

Wright plays the position perfectly as an inside forward. He actually does play wide out of possession.

Nah Preston are crap

Sheaf is miles ahead of Eccles. Hamer was miles ahead of Sheaf.

Yet again you prove you don't understand what I'm saying. The point is Dovin wasn't given enough time to come to any reasonable judgement on his ability, and dropping him is likely to have a negative effect on his performance in the future.

No one has said this or anything like it? People are making the point that it's nonsense to drop a keeper after 6 games having done nothing wrong. How would Dovin even prove that he's head and shoulders above Wilson in only 6 games anyway? The mark of a good keeper is long term consistency...

Dovin was presumably higher rated than the Derby keeper prior to this season? Obviously getting dropped for Ben Wilson won't have helped his stock.

It was Dovin’s error obviously but as a defender you should never be hitting a pass like that, with force, bouncing and directly at your goal. It’s basics. And yeah, I wouldn't factor international performances in at all really. Especially youth teams. You seem determined to defend Robins to...

Get Carsley out and an actual manager in. The front 4 were all over the place, absolutely no cohesion.
