Coventry are considering loaning out Jordan Ponticelli before the close of the loan window next week with a number League Two clubs chasing his signature. #Coventry #skyblues #ccfc

Tricky one with Max's injury.
If we've spoken to Ponticelli about him needing to get out on loan and play regular football, then it's not right to keep him for a bench appearance here and there just because Max is injured....however if he goes and we sign Chaplin (or similar), he falls further down the pecking order.

Quite annoyed by this if I’m honest. Saw him against Oxford when he came on and brought a different dynamic up top with Biamou, made a real difference. Also had a pretty tidy finish from a header ruled out (unfairly for me!) for offside which proves that he’s a finisher. Never understood why he never got more of a run out in the first team!

May well be our best goal scoring option. Give him a start to see what he is capable of in league one before letting him go

Robins's comments suggest he may wel;l be in line for a start at thwe weekend, however.

Some might say he's the only natural goalscorer we've got.
Would be happy for him to go on loan, but now we have lost Biamou and are already a striker down I'm not so sure. To lose two strikers in a week is not the best of business. I know Jones is due back, but what if he takes a lot longer than expected to return.

He was a lot more assured and calmer in front of goal than Mcnulty was last year. He deserves his chance with us.

Of course no one’s expecting him to be a similar player to Biamou or play in a similar role, but in a change of system alongside JCH then he could do a job

You never know, maybe a striker making striker's runs might open up space to enable a pass...

Good move. Imagine if we started jp and he doesn't fire for 2 games. He'll be hounded out. Doesn't need that at his stage of development and get him back in Jan when we've started playing football and he's more confident

The guy doesn’t work for SSN but he’s still very reliable, so hope where ever he goes has a weightwatchers nearby

Could the same be said of him playing alongside Bakayoko?

I think the fans would have a bit more patience with him as he’s one of our own, he needs to play off somebody I would play him with JCH and see if Bristol rovers still want that lump

I seriously doubt he will be going out on loan now that Biamou is out for the season basically.
Bakayoko I doubt will be in the team for a while. Would argue he is 2nd/3rd choice right now

I think it will be JCH and Hiwula but with Ponti / Bakayoko on the bench.
It just depends what Robins tries to do. If we are going to start creating chances then give Ponticelli a chance, if we are going to play 1 up top and stick him on the wing for the last 10 minutes then loan him out.

So we give him an easy ride then but not others because “he’s one of our own”?:emoji_thinking:

What a load of cobblers that “natural goalscorer” theory is. Where are the goals then?

Change 'goalscorer' to 'finisher' and I'd agree with his comment.
If Robins is saying that Bakayoko is a better player than Ponticelli then I fucking give up.
Bakayoko will turn out to me one of our worst signings ever. I though Vincenti was a terrible signing but Bakayoko takes it to another level.
I can’t believe Robins signed Bakayoko and must have had him pushed on him. That’s the only excuse I can think of? It’s like going out with 10 men and were handicapped straight away with him. No wonder players get pissed off with Bakayoko in the starting 11.
Before anyone asks no I’m not a fan of him!

He is a natural goalscorer. I think you know exactly what I mean by that.
JCH isn't a natural goalscorer. Biamou isn't a natural goalscorer. Bakayoko isn't a natural goalscorer.
McNulty was. McGoldrick was. Think you know exactly what I mean. It's a instinct thing and a natural finisher thing.

time will tell. idiotic to say it after 2 games. 1 in which he scored
Oh FFS get the shit of your eyes and be honest the guys utter shite and if you was honest you would admit that and also admit that he isn’t going to improve a great deal.
