I’ll give you that. If you want someone to make a five yard pass he’s your man.
High pass completion isn’t a bonus for an AM, it suggests safe passing choices.
1- Highest pass completion in the team?

He's played 14 games centre midfield not AM
And makes very few passes for a CM. He’s nowhere near as involved as other midfielders. As I keep saying: he runs about a lot and makes safe five yard passes but you need more at this level.
Not sure he can sway you at this point
I’ve seen him have maybe three good games for us. He can sway me by being effective on the pitch. If he’s a DM win the ball, if he’s an AM open up defences.
Grendel gets dogs abuse for his taxi threads yet you want Robins destroyed. That's a bit harsh!!Anyone who gets in the way of me seeing Sheaf Hamer Palmer O’Hare and Vik in the team together must be destroyed for the good of humanity.
Are you nuts? He scored twice because he’s doing what we scream for from everyone else . Shoot first timeI thought he did well last year, he went through a stage of tearing around midfield and nipping the ball off toes, little give and goes out wide with Dabo and Maatsen.
This year I’ve been less impressed. Good assist today but other than that there hasn’t been the wing-back link up and he’s been bullied off the ball.
He scored two goals (both of which it’s almost like the defender’s assisted by kicking through whilst he’s shooting). Other than that his shooting has been delayed (prefers to pass) or miles off target.
We’ve got some of the best midfielders that I’ve seen here in about 15 years (Hamer, O’Hare, Palmer (getting there), even Sheaf (so frustrating - quality player but does some stupid things). Allen is probably our 5th best midfielder but still better than most that has come before.
Allen’s best attribute is that he can find space and offer an outlet. He then needs to give and go. His dribbling goes nowhere because he doesn’t have the pace or strength.
He offers something to the team but he’s no Zidane.
I find this strange.Ffs, some people on this forum boil my piss. He's not top drawer, never will be, but he does a job and a job that we need. He also never, ever goes hiding in games.
Anyway, we've all got our opinions. Rant over.
he’s awfulWalker put in his shift today
Must be the same posters on FB who switched off when he scored.The majority of this forum tonight
It's not the majority though is it? Most people recognise his qualities, quite a few see limitations and think we could sign better, and only a small vociferous minority keep slagging him off.The majority of this forum tonight

Don’t forget he doesn’t talk and is thick.I think actually on here he’s been slagged off by a lot of people - no technique, shit, a dwarf, adds nothing to the team - even against West Brom when he created our best chances they aren’t anything to do with him
It’s been relentless. He doesn’t divide opinion it’s all pretty much one way

So what.second top scorer isn’t he?
Like those two convicts who turned off in Oz at HTMust be the same posters on FB who switched off when he scored.
Would you drop Hamer, Sheaf Palmer or O'hare to accommodate Allen ..... I don't think so.second top scorer isn’t he?

If you look at minutes per goal, he's actually fifth. (Behind Palmer)robins mostly left palmer out when they were all fit

Allen other than one season at Burton has a goal scoring record of one a season - he’s an ok back up midfielder at this level but that’s it
Allen is s league 1 player he’s nowhere near the level required
the Allen contract renewal continues rk look totally absurd
Alen is mediocre at best and offers nothing
If you’d rather have the likes of Jamie Allen who does nothing ever then good for you
Allen is embarrassing in front of goal abs other than huff and puff offers very little
Because otherwise he’s a stand out player compared to third rate tripe like Jamie Allen
Allen has been utterly useless and hopelessly out of his depth
tbf Mick Harford did indeed score over 150 goals during that fantastic one season with us.If you look at minutes per goal, he's actually fifth.
Which just goes to show stats can prove everything and fuck all.
Indeed.
Imagine how much of a bellend you'd have to be to relentlessly slag him off for years.
Oh.
This is qualityIndeed.

Not even worth a squad place in Grendel's spreadsheet.tbf Mick Harford did indeed score over 150 goals during that fantastic one season with us.
