He is trying to finesse everything at the moment and looks out of his depth.

Needs to be in a better performing side to shine

He needs a proper run in the team. Wright has been pathetic the last few games so needs benching.

Im not writing him off just yet. We’ve got so called star players from last season who’ve not turned up this season.

Was the window still open when we played Oxford?

What concerns me is his end product - he doesn’t seem to have any.
He beats his man then fires in aimless balls to no one - been doing this from game 1 - jury is out right now for me.

TBF game 1 he got an assist from a cross.

He won’t start a game until he sorts himself out - he is an impact sub with no impact!

Just looks like he's got no confidence and is scared to make a mistake
Tend to agree - i want a winger who will attack the full back consistently when they get the ball.
Pre-injury that's what Tats was doing on a regular basis. may lose the ball now and then, but defenders hate a player that commits them.

The biggest disappointment of all the signings, we’ve had our pants down here for sure. If we had gambled on a £500,000 League 1 player fair enough…..but we spunked away 8 times that and were even made to wait for the messiah 🤔

He'll be fine, he looks no worse than Wright and Simms did this time last season and look how they turned out (just ignore how they're playing so far this season 😅)

Wright was crap yesterday but still looked more threatening than EMC.

He’s got no pace so unless we are dominant and he’s receiving the ball in and around the box I’m not sure what he can do.

File this under the same reviews our star players of the past few seasons got in their early stages. I think he will come good.

The issue at the moment is your Wrights and Simms not performing. There’s no real excuse there and they need to step up (which they will).

They have to be selected first, Haji is not right ATM!

At the end of the season we can judge EMC.

He’s not the cause of the problems.

You are right but at the moment he is not offering solutions either.

I am prepared to be be patient with him because coming from League One I never expected him to hit the ground running.

One of our biggest problems are fans who think every signing will immediately be a superstar and totally unrealistically propelled us to be automatic promotion candidates?

Its a very competitive league and we have no right just to walk into the top six.

At the moment we are a long way off but the season can be saved. Mark Robins and his staff have a lot of work to do. But it is early days as a group.

The whole Mason-Clark transfer saga, even taking his performances for us out of account, really makes King look like an absolute amateur really. No wonder MacAnthony was full of praise for him, he had his pants down. I notice that option on another Peterborough player we always managed to negotiate as part of the deal also never materialised.
