We do, just people expect them to be sane quick, plus people got to remember Baka is 6ft 4" his stride may not look big but I'm sure he covers alot more ground than the rest.Players say Baka is as rapid as Giles. That training video would suggest that’s about right. Why don’t we see that pace in game?
Agree. I’m a massive Baka fan, but even I wouldn’t call him a pacey striker, but I can see Giles’ pace in games all the time. Just wondering why that is. We rarely seem to try and play Baka in behind.
Too busy ready to slag him off! He has all the attributes of a modern day striker, add his good attitude and I think he's an assetPlayers say Baka is as rapid as Giles. That training video would suggest that’s about right. Why don’t we see that pace in game?
Difference in positions I guess, usually more space out wide?Agree. I’m a massive Baka fan, but even I wouldn’t call him a pacey striker, but I can see Giles’ pace in games all the time. Just wondering why that is. We rarely seem to try and play Baka in behind.
Also a fact of pace over a few yards compared to a 100m sprintMaybe it's just a question of coaching? He's most likely been played as a target man for most of his career due to his size, so will be more used to playing with his back to goal. The runs Godden makes for our midfield are much more impactful. I don't think we've seen the best of him yet.

Probably hit the nail on the head there. Style of play. We don’t really knock it long in behind so don’t get to see it often, other than the odd ball down the line.
A Mowbray loan if I recall no reason to suggest Robins rates himDominic Samuel?

To be fair he scored two pretty identical goals of that kind of vein against Peterborough
Haha, good spot !!! I meant it’s not our general style of play to be hitting long balls in behind though, hence us not probably fully appreciating the pace he’s got.
My only hesitation wish Walsh would be if it's a loan, he clearly has the quality but I don't want to be developing players for other teams in the division if he signs a 4 year deal there. Spend the money on someone we can push on.
I don't know if those two are the best example, the first one he beats the defender with his first touch and then there is nobody near him and the second the defender manager to catch up with him.To be fair he scored two pretty identical goals of that kind of vein against Peterborough
Surely a right wing back on loan to cover until Dabo is fit and then as backup until Dacosta is fit. Also a further CAM in light of Jodi's injury

So what is our CAM depth chart now
O'Hare - Allen
Hilssner - Shipley
Jobello - Kastaneer
Do we need to upgrade that and if we do does it mean getting rid of players?
I think we'll be playing a bit deeper this year with Championship sides pressing us more so hopefully he steps up when he gets the chance and shows what he's capable of.I see your point but it shows a glimpse into what he could do with more efforts to set him up that way
We still need cover until Dacosta is fit.Dabo is almost back, can't see us loaning someone for just a few weeks (if that) of cover.
Definitely need a JJ replacement though
It says to me we need to trim the squad a bit as well as additional, shame Kasta didn't go last week, balata should be out on loan and Jobello is still recovering and is an outright winger. I can see why you'd want someone else in there but I'd be trying to get players on their way too.I’d put Bapaga ahead of Kasta there. We haven’t seen the most of Hilßner and Jobello is an unknown quantity really until he’s fit. I’d maybe get a loan in if somethings available, it’s the sort of position you can find a gem in the youth teams of bigger clubs. At least until Jan when Jobello and Hilßner are match fit.
Every club in the Championship and some in the Premier League would take him. Why would he come here?Maybe Billy Gilmor since Chelsea have signed Havertz and have Mason Mount and Ziyech as AM (A Season Long Loan)
He would get better opportunities hereEvery club in the Championship and some in the Premier League would take him. Why would he come here?

What like Norwich or somewhere like that?Not really as he’d play for the top Championship sides too. Chelsea would also want him at a club where’s he’s kept on his toes and is not a shoe in every week as it will be the same at Chelsea
