He did yesterday
He did yesterdayAlways think his strongest games are when he has Wright in front of him. EMC likes to stay on the touchline more and restricts his forward runs and I think Wright helps out better defending as well.
World Cup qualifying !Just set up a goal for Wales in the nations league. Lovely cross
Ah I thought that little heart shirt thing in the BBC 3 branding was the nations league. My mistake!World Cup qualifying !
JDS replaced injured Nico Williams early in 1st Half.
Will Bellamy start JDS against Belgium on Monday ?Ah I thought that little heart shirt thing in the BBC 3 branding was the nations league. My mistake!
Not the best opposition but he hasn't looked out of place
That's the finishing we need
They are playing Lichtenstein to be fairBellamy appears to have them purring tonight.

You can’t really compare a short sub cameo appearance in a single match to really strong final qtr of the season for club and country.Hopefully impresses scouts of other clubs, if we want to get promoted we need better, regardless of a few good games at the end of the season.
It’s like judging Tavares against Man Utd and hoping that he’s got something in his locker. JDS has disappointed me far too many times over the course of the two years he’s been here and for that… I’d rather us move on.
Could you imagine Toffolo/Brau and then on the other side having MVE/KKH to choose from each game

Im not saying he’s the answer but this isn’t a fair comparison.
Need to balanced with views on JdS, same as wright and not let recency bias kick in.
yea he’s been excellent on whole last 2/3 months, BUT there are still weaknesses which ultimately will hold us back.
Ideal world you upgrade both LBs - however, JDS form as given us option to maybe just upgrade Bidwell for now and focus money on other areas in short term.
The system we currently play doesn't suit a lot of our players. None of our forwards bar maybe a raw Bassette suit playing as a lone striker with their back to goal. Simms and Wright scored plenty of goals running onto the ball. Simms and BTA played well in a 2 together and both started scoring.Take Simms for example… Simms scored 19 last season and then disappointed this season. I’m not going to hold all my hope on that Simms can do that for us. I’m going to judge his performances over the whole duration and to be honest he’s not performed well enough. From memory Simms scored two hat tricks and a brace in that season so overall even then, it wasn’t always sunshine and rainbows.
Same for JDS, over the course of all performances it’s not been good enough and we can do better.

Would have agreed re JB - but the last 2 months I’ve just seen real drop off from him, think Father Time starting to catch up, quickly.I’d personally say overall consistency has shown Bidwell has given us more than JDS has.
Other than that I agree with you completely

Never occurred to me that he wasn’t fit.Does anyone else feel his late season form might be down to him knuckling down and sorting out his fitness a little / the coaches forcing him to sort it out?
Bit harsh on him after playing well the other night, I suppose Belgium are on a different level.On the bench tonight
Looks like theyve gone 5 at the backBit harsh on him after playing well the other night, I suppose Belgium are on a different level.

His form towards the end gives me hope for next year.
I mean you might well be right. One would hope fitness for a pro footballer is a given. One would hope…Myself and a few other people noted his chubby lad physique in a mid season city unseen video a little while before Lampard came in I believe.
