It's not his ability that has held him back though by all accounts. In fact it did tell us something - he let it go to his head when there was supposed interest from elsewhere.
Not saying it would - just saying it'd be far more worthwhile to us to have got some experience for those who will be here next season looking to step up than have a group who likely won't be playing like they're already on the beach.
Yep - this playing the strongest team hasn't made the slightest difference IMO. At least some of the U23's might've put in a bit more effort. Been a non-event second half.
Yes, that's why I've not said Ponti should've come on for Bright. I'm saying if we chage things up front I'd rather see Ponti brought on than move Chaplin up there. As for Bright, I think I'd have prefered to see Westbrooke given a run-out.
Not sure why. Not got the movement or skill to do that. But suprisingly not got the pace to play of the last man or height/strength to play CF. For a supposed poacher he doesn't seem to take the chance to get into scoring positions prefering to hold back. I'm really starting to wonder exactly...
Economic Left/Right: -3.38
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.79
So I'm centre left with a strong leaning towards libertarianism. Closest to Gandhi on the graph.
I tend to find when we get an official that normally refs higher up they're awful. Whether they just cant be bothered or think it should be about them I dunno but they're crap. Prem officials seem to be particularly shit when reffing below that.
