In fairness, the rest of the team don't give him much either.

I have definite concerns around him and he's had some poor performances, but he doesn't seem like a major issue in our overall woes in the last couple of games.

Think hes a major issue. For huge parts of almost every game hes just not involved at all. He seems to go under the radar for some because if he doesn't touch it hes not making mistakes

If he drops off and lays it off 4 or 5 times a game people say hes played well.

The way we play it is becoming apparent we need someone with a bit of nous up top to play that role.

We're not in the business of short intricate triangles, hitting the byeline and delivering crosses or balls over the top to run in behind. The type of things young strikers could work with and develop.

We have a slow build up, methodical tactics and we don't create much. So we need a striker who can work defenders, create his own space and know how to hold the ball up well every time and bring others into play. All things a young striker learns to do with experience.

Until we change the way we play, or buy some full backs who are capable of overlapping and creating space out wide, he'll continue to be a passenger who has to wait until he can grab a rare opportunity to get a chance or a shot away.
