I think we should give tav a go

mark robins is clearly way more qualified but he’s raw and is worth a punt more often from gjr bench

Weren't you saying that Kelly was the first name of the team sheet under your former moniker on here?

[Grendel]

And Waggy, Kelly, Walker etc are?

At least Tav has the legs to run.

Usain Bolt can run

I think Liam Kelly is finished, we need a center midfielder

 

[Matt smith]

Usain Bolt can run

Tavares scored vs Preston

therefore he should be in consideration

 

[Grendel]

He’s just not good enough

He is nowhere near good enough as a championship starter. Nearly 22 and started a handful of league games

He can do 5 minute cameos but he’s miles from being a championship player and would be nowhere near todays oppositions squad and I guess that’s the issue

 

[Grendel]

Trevor Benjamin scored against Watford

 

[pusbccfc]

Usain Bolt can run

But Waghorn and Walker cannot.

 

[Grendel]

But Waghorn and Walker cannot.

No they can play football

 

[pusbccfc]

No they can play football

That's pushing it.

Trevor Benjamin scored against Watford

Didn't he punch it into the net?

 

[Deleted member 9744]

Waghorn was hopeless. Might have been a good player at this level in his day but seems finished. Tavares looked a considerably better player than him today. His movement off the ball was causing their defence all sorts of trouble. With O'Hare injured we lack this.

I think they are all better players than tav yep

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Who heard the "fingers in the air" comment regarding the takeover.. and where?....
And could have been mis-heard??....
"Things are in the air".... which obviously isn't good....

Waiting for efl. I know it’s boring but that’s it

 

[pusbccfc]

I think they are all better players than tav yep

Surely not Walker?

For what it's worth, I'd not even come close to starting Taveres but off the bench I think he's a better option than what we've got primarily because of his pace and trickery. Something we have not got.

 

[Matt smith]

Seriously think Norwich will be coming for robins in the next week or so

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Well I would like mid table.

do you think we’re going to be near the bottom?

It depends heavily on the transfer window.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Surely not Walker?

Yep walker im sorry

Walker is actually better than Tavares though - Why on earth do people think Tavares is so good? There‘s a reason Robins doesn’t play him ffs

[alexccfc99]

Almost like MR watches FabTav in training every day of his working life and based on that decides he’s not worth utilising

I'd sooner keep Tavares than Walker.
We know Walker is shite, but there's an outside chance that Tavares might turn out to be a player.

Or as last resort. Will be interesting how mr works out how to play without Ohare

If this ‘takeover’ is as it seems - A high quality Premier League loan can help plug the gap if COH’s injury ends his season

We’re not losing many goals with Cal as much as we love him, we’re losing a player who draws a man to leave space to Viktor

 

[Sick Boy]

I’m baffled as to how SU are 2nd in the league - we’ve been poor all game and apart from the odd bit of quality from them I don’t see that they are any better.

Yeah, I’m sure they’re gutted.

 

[Sick Boy]

Anyway, yet again we’re shown just how crucial CoH is for us and how we play.

 

[Sick Boy]

I wonder how many play-off contenders would be looking to sign him if he were available.

 

[Frostie]

He is nowhere near good enough as a championship starter. Nearly 22 and started a handful of league games

He can do 5 minute cameos but he’s miles from being a championship player and would be nowhere near todays oppositions squad and I guess that’s the issue

He wouldn't even be in our squad if others were fit.

 

[fernandopartridge]

I'd sooner keep Tavares than Walker.

Nonsense.

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

I wonder how many play-off contenders would be looking to sign him if he were available.

Thats because they have more than 1 striker up to the level required

Walker has done nothing in 18 months.

I don't actually think people think Taveres is 'good' but most agree he should be an option from the bench. We've been throwing on the likes of Walker and Waghorn off the bench for 2 seasons now and both have done literally nothing. Taveres has the one thing no one else has and that's pace. That's why there is a want for him to come off the bench.

 

[pusbccfc]

Nonsense.

If you had to get rid of one, surely it would be Walker. Tav will be on peanuts.

There is a lot of debate about the forward line but after 3 goals let in today I would be tempted to drop Wilson. He has conceded 7 in 4 games and while some were far from his fault I still feel Moore with a degree of confidence is the better keeper of the two.

 

[shmmeee]

Id get rid of both. Walker is out of contract in a few months. Let Tavares go on a free to L2 or whatever.

Wilson puts us under so much pressure with his kicking. He gives the ball away every 7 minutes on average.

 

[skyblue025]

When a player heads the ball in from inside the 6 yard box from a cross 30m away I always wonder why the keeper hasn't come and at least punched the ball. So hard for defender who has had to turn and run back towards the goal to get too the ball ahead of the attacker and direct it away to safety. Still no excuse for the terrible marking but the keeper has to make those his own.
