He was awful last night no doubt about it and I'm glad he was called out in the dressing room. This is the one piece of play that really didn't make any sense to me. In a 2 horse race with O'Nein surely he's got to be the winner. I've never bought the idea that a player doesn't try so there must be a big underlying issue with him. Frank obviously loves him, the fans love him (until recently) so where has it all gone wrong. Maybe it's just the end of the road here and it's time to say goodbye. At his best somebody will take the risk on him or maybe he moves back overseas. It just doesn't add up and whatever the problem, it's such a shame

I don't think Frank does love him. He obviously prefers EMC on the left and i'm pretty sure he just sees Wright as the least shit option in the centre.

Nope, hes been fine, its purely a case of not mentally or physically being up for it enough

Hence why some words were exchanged last night

Im not talking a punch up and fists thrown, but he was told by a few that his performances when everyone else has worked their arse off are not acceptable at this club


Could be nail in the coffin, could make him sort his shit out

There was a rumour his missus isn't happy living here. No excuse, but perhaps he's getting earache over it

If he's not been carrying a knock, then I'd hazard a guess he's already had a whisper in his ear from his agent about a transfer.

What might help his game is if he stops playing in roller skates...

I hate it when everyone gets down on a player (oo-err missus), because I think then all you notice is the negative stuff and you miss the positive stuff. In fairness wasn't it his challenge in the middle of the goal that led to the ball dropping to EMC?

Other than that though, I'm struggling to remember him doing anything particularly useful.

And I'm sure I saw on more than one occasion that he simply backed out of attempting to win headers from long balls, and just left the centre half to it.

Now I know it's not really his game, and I know the odds are he wouldn't beat Ballard most times, but I really, really didn't like the not trying. Tats is half the size, and backs out of nothing - maybe that's the point that was being made in the changing rooms afterwards.

I hope for us, and him, he learns something from it, and comes back a better player next season.

This is what I'm thinking. Maybe doesn't want to get injured and screw it up like what happened to COH

don't you then risk the club potentially signing you watching your games and changing their mind?

Not sure that will help anything tbh he doesn’t strike me as the type of guy that would react well to a bollocking

Probably mentioned it while complaining the sandwich he brought them after they fucked his missus was too dry and he was busy apologising.

I wouldn't be surprised if that sort of thing is quite common. Vik didn't pull up any trees in our 3 playoff games and we now know Sporting were in advanced negotiations with his agent prior to that.

If we sell him and have money to play around with I’d go after Mathias Kvistgaarden of Brondby in the Danish league can play ST, LW and CAM.
He’s a lot shorter than Wright but he’s quicker and got a very good goalscoring ratio, I’d probably play him on the left and sign a big target man through the middle

edit : here’s a video of him

I'm glad to hear we've got people in that dressing room setting standards and telling their team mates when they've not met them tbh. Not disagreeing with your point, but if he can't handle being called on it by his team mates, you could argue that makes a case for moving him on. Need stronger characters than that to compete consistently in this league nevermind the league above.

You'd be fuming if you were someone like Eccles, Tats, EMC etc. Giving your life and soul for a game and then you're 20k+ a week, international striker faffs about the pitch.

I'm still fuming.
