Agree. Torp has been awful so far. At least Allen is involved.
I thought he was. Certainly for someone in the centre of things. He looks ponderous when on the ball for me. Too slow of thought.Torp wasn't brilliant tonight but he was far from anonymous

I agree he doesn't look confident but he put himself about and worked hard off the ball . Given a run of games I think we will see the best of him especially alongside Sheaf/Eccles and RudoniI thought he was. Certainly for someone in the centre of things. He looks ponderous when on the ball for me. Too slow of thought.
We clearly have fans who think they are better managers than Robins. If he is actually as bad as you, Grendel and other idiots on this forum make out then why is he playing week in and week out. To me it’s clear you don’t have a clue. It’s weird how you pick out one player when others on the pitch are making errors just as bad.We clearly have fans who have never played football at a half decent level, their comments come under the fu **ing embarrassing category.
Still let them light up the thread with their knowledgeable insightful comments, it’s entertaining
Got to be Wright Simms Saka on Friday with midfield of Eccles, Allen, Rudoni. For me Torp has been 100% anonymous in both games so far.

To be fair read the first 20 pages of this thread and you will see what he meansWe bow to your superior knowledge of football.
why didnt you apply for the assistant managers post ?
Torp was far better tonight.
I don't think Eccles can play the deep role alone. Not good enough on the ball and doesn't have the range of passing. He's fine there with Sheaf alongside.
Agree completely. I can sort of see why Robins has played Allen as he offers himself for the ball off the centre backs and the goalkeeper far better than anyone else. Out of possession he isn't strong enough to play that role though.I think Dasilva should be considered for Friday. He was excellent tonight, as was Kitching. Wilson solid.
Midfield still an issue. Allen, Rudoni, Palmer and Torp are AMs for me. That leaves us only Eccles and Sheaf as DM/CMs.
We really need a CM through the door by the end of the window.
Dasilva always looks ok when he doesn’t need to do a lot of defending. Bristol were shocking tonight. Bidwell is a better option all round. Although at least Dasilva looked tidy enough on the ball.
This is exactly it. I see a lot of people saying Torp is shit or he's been anonymous etc, but he's not a DM. He's at his best when he's further up the pitch but he's not getting in over Rudoni.I think Dasilva should be considered for Friday. He was excellent tonight, as was Kitching. Wilson solid.

I think tonight showed that Rudoni can play deeper . He showed great awareness tonight and was making sure players around him were doing their rolesThis is exactly it.

Alongside Sheaf I reckon he'll look a lot better because he'll be able to get up the pitch a bit more and not have to focus on covering the midfield so much.
He had to sit deeper against Stoke because he was next to Allen, who is also not a DM. Made both of them look absolute gash.

Rudoni will be as valuable as Sheaf come the end of the season. He is a massive upgrade on O'Hare for meOnly caught the commentary for the first half, watched the 2nd half and thought it was a decent performance.
Great ball from Palmer to Simms for the goal and a calm finish for a player who had just come on...loads of positives tbf and an improvement from Saturday.
Agree with the above comment that Rudoni can play deeper as well... really good signing is Rudoni.
Definitely, and easy to see why the club have been after him for a long time.Rudoni will be as valuable as Sheaf come the end of the season. He is a massive upgrade on O'Hare for me
Big man little man. Would work well feeding of knock downs from SimmsBta looks good. Like to see him in a 2 man partnership upfront
Robins will almost never START with these three. They’re the only three strikers in the squad (excluding Obikwu & Dausch and possibly Tavares).On form who will he start/play?
Wright - Simms -Asante?
Lol , I know what you mean but on current form where do we go ?Robins will almost never START with these three. They’re the only three strikers in the squad (excluding Obikwu & Dausch and possibly Tavares).
Yes, Haji & BTA can and do play off the (left) wing. However if one of them tires and needs replacing, then you’re left with bringing on non-strikers. Saka & EMC are great options, but aren’t strikers.
I know what I mean. I’m just tired now & making little sense!
I think they would be an interesting two when needs don't as wellI think Simms and BTA could be an interesting front two when needs must.
For squad depth...as it was our biggest problem last season. He aint bad but he's not Championship quality either, just a body that can at least fit into the formation unlike Palmer. Same with Tavares.for sentimental value??
Norton-Cuffy would be a good addition if we can get him again.First half was frustrating. Asante too isolated, Lati is not a RB . Torp and Eccles played well at times Wright as well
Second half played a lot quicker , kudos to Robins for going for it . Lati can play CB , Kitching stood up well.Subs made the difference
I’ve read he’s going GenoaNorton-Cuffy would be a good addition if we can get him again.
