Although he’s certainly not the best free transfer of all time I can’t take you seriously after the ‘Listen to me just hear me out’ threadWell it is the discussion as he’s been claimed to be the best free transfer we have ever had, up there with 3 named premier league players and should start ahead of a 0.75m player
Because he wasn't free?
Evo, I agree with much of what you have said, and disagree with some of it - respecting opinions is key though!They do count but the league is where the goals are needed.
Win the checkatrade or get promotion which is it?
Baka outperforms biamou in the league and over the course of his tenure at a higher level mostly...
One is universally loved one is universally hated... Its difficult to understand

I don't understand you using the term "universally", as I was very pleased last week to hear several people cheering and encouraging Baka in his battle against Pompey, and he certainly got a good reception when he was subbed.
Who doesn’t support them during the game
I only know 1 person who doesn’t like or rate max lolA late contribution:
1. Max was out for most of last season with an acl - most players on their return take some time to return to their previous level of performance.
2. This season he looks like an improved player and is still improving - well done coaching staff!
3. He is a team player and creates space for others to exploit.
4. Both popular within the squad, as well as outside. .... unlike Leon Clarke who was only interested in himself and next signing on fee.
In short, we have an improving team player who is an important contributor to the culture of the squad and provides MR with a different tactical option.
Can I question you on your ability to state as fact that we would have been promoted with a different keeper to Burge, or that we'd have been promoted by now with a "decent striker"?It’s the same argument regarding Burge
If we’d have invested in a decent keeper we’d have been promoted 3 years ago
if we’d invested in a decent striker to actually play in this system we’d be promoted by now
We haven’t
You really need to turn your hearing aid on.Tbh at home no

Half the number of people and winning games of course it’s not but this St. Andrews is great for everything is getting quite monotonous .It’s nowhere near as negative as the Ricoh
Certainly disagree with that. Maybe it depends on where you sit but I hear far more moaning this season than in previous years.It’s nowhere near as negative as the Ricoh
Precisely why I moved seatsCertainly disagree with that. Maybe it depends on where you sit but I hear far more moaning this season than in previous years.
FUCKIT
I’ll say it.
Robins (for being a striker as a player) doesn’t, for whatever reason* play a system (currently) that plays to a strikers benefit.
He concentrates on midfield (holding and advancement) and a solid defence. Which means we’ve probably conceded less than a lot of teams in the league (can’t be arsed to look).
Arguing amongst ourselves about strikers stats and selfies seems a bit fucking redundant when half the time, the system currently employed, leaves the fuckers running around for scraps.

You've been reading Grendels posts for to long, rubbing off on you.Fair enough, if I've come accross that way it's not my intention.
Just trying to be balanced if I'm honest

Not necessarily you however it’s evident in parts of the ground. As I said it might have been worse at the Ricoh not by where we sat but there were twice as many people plus we weren’t doing as well. If we were in the same position at the Ricoh do you think it would be any different?Ive not said it great and said it’s not sustainable I just don’t see this swell of player negativity
Nor me I agree it’s much better as the team and individuals are outperforming maybe even their talent at present.Ive not said it great and said it’s not sustainable I just don’t see this swell of player negativity
Wow, actually incredible.His 2 play off semi final goals at Notts county have equal weighting to the 8 you mention.
Exactly the same as you get now.I can imagine exactly what it would be like at the Ricoh. Constant shouts of forward and fans having aneurisms when marosi rolls it short.
Exactly the same as you get now.
What has changed?
Nothing...
Max Biamou
Was part of the most significant change in tactic this season.
23rd October vs Fleetwood at Home.
After the back to back defeats at Rotherham/Tranmere, then drawing a blank at a MK Dons in dissaray. We found ourselves totally outplayed first half and losing fortunately by just one goal vs Fleetwood.
Robins then went 3 at the back. Bringing in Mcfadz into the back 3.
Also Bringing on Max Biamou at half time for Jordy Hiwula.
Those huge changes in formation changed our season.
After 13.5 games untill the change.
21 points. We were lying in 9th place.
The 16.5 games since picked up since picked 36 points.
Biamou changed the game with his first meaningfully game time of season.
Not crediting him with huge change since then.
Significant . Hiwula has only played 16 mins since.
What a change.
11 goals in all competitions since end of October (posh game) in number has had a massive part to play in our success since then.
There were many on here (il try not to snigger )calling for Hiwula to be back in the team at Biamous expense.
Biamou has totally justified his place in the team.
