Torp or Hamer? (1 Viewer)

[itsabuzzard]

Torp because he is our player and Hamer is not !!

In a nutshell.

[shmmeee]

But if we had Hamer he would be our player

 

[Bad Boy]

Based on nothing but pure romanticism given that its St. Valentines day and I'm all loved up with Mrs BB I wouldn't be at all surprised to see Hamer back playing in sky blue at some point in the future

Looks like a Scandinavian zain westbrooke at the moment , needs to up his game massively

I think he'll be fine. Might take a little time, but I think there's a very good player in there.

Started very well...then it all kind of caught up with him and he's struggled. No concerns about him long term.

Ah the old “I think there is a player in there” cover story for a player who hasn’t performed.

It isn't a cover story when he performed quite well right after arriving.

No, not at all. It's a "I think there is a good player in there" and he's foreign and will take time to adjust to English football.

 

[Tea & Busquets]

Think this summer will be the turning point for him. Expect to see Hamer esque performances next season.

 

[Ashdown]

Hamer, much work to be done with Torp ! Still too lightweight and head goes down to quickly.

If only we had a player or two that proved that sometimes it takes a little time.

His performance today was probably among the top 3 if not worst individual performances of the season, he was miles off it and even when he took a set piece was terrible. Early days in his career here but no positive signs at all today. Is he physically up to it?

Torp will come good. He needs to build stamina and soeed of thought over this summer.

If he isnt performing by mid September time questions will be asked

It looks like he lacks a yard of pace for the necessary recovery runs.

 

[skyblu3sk]

He will be sound he was brought in with Robins specifically saying he needed time over and above anyone else.

 

[hamertime]

Torp will come good, show glimpses of quality. Needs time to settle and work on his tempo and physicality.

That isn't how it works Otis, you have to decide if he's SHITE or WORLD CLASS and you have to do it NOW. please also note that your answer will be noted and thrown back at you at every opportunity, forever.

Which has turned out to be the case on more than one occasion, see what some of us were posting about Simms as exhibit A.

Exactly.

Robins himself alluded to the fact the game was too fast for Torp.

He needs to adjust to English football. I am sure that will come and he will be a very good player for us.

 

[Deity]

Torp is our best midfield player on the ball. He is also our best passer of a ball.

He was our best player in our first few matches but he was really poor yesterday.

A full pre season, more time to adjust to the pace and physicality of this league, and he will be fine.

 

[Adge]

And I hope that you are correct. It was his time to impress yesterday and unfortunately he fell flat on his face. A full pre-season though will hopefully see him get up to speed.

Hamer

 

[David O'Day]

Torp as he's our player and Hamer isn't coming back

No doubt, then by the following May those people asking questions will be saying "Happy to be proven wrong" and the circle of life continues.

Torp will prove to be a good the blokes just been through a full season at home and then straight into the Championship for 6 months. After he's had a proper rest and pre season he will be fine.

He'd had a rest for a month before he joined, then hasn't really played much in the last few weeks. As a result he just looks off the pace. No doubt he's got some quality but he really needs to be get up a few levels intensity wise, the only way to do that really is by playing.

Torp will come good.... but we're kidding ourselves if we say we'd take him over Hamer

Agreed. Showed some really good glimpses. He’d just signed at the start of the Norwegian pre-season, Sheaf gets injured so he’s thrust into the team, picks up 1-2 knocks and is out the team for a month.

It’s been a tough start, and with a pre-season with us under his belt you’d hope he can improve and show his quality.

The premise of the thread is quite silly too. Hamer was the best CM in the league last season and probably the best I’ve seen play for us there. It’s a non-starter.

You put Hamer back in this team and we’re comfortably in the playoffs and think we can put that question to bed.

I'm not sure even come September questions should be getting asked. Very limited time on the training field for the first few months here. Even with a pre-season it may take a little longer to adjust. Can take some signings from abroad 18 months...

Think you are right that it will come for him though.

 

[harvey098]

Am I the only one that thinks Torp has been pretty decent overall? Even some of his little sub cameos he’s done well.

He’ll get longer spells in the team but apart from Blues, where the whole team were off it, I don’t really think he’s done much wrong? In fact, I’d say he’s been good.

He has been good. Thought this was general consensus?

Song goes to Hamer

Drinking, Hamer.
Football ability....you guessed it.

What about Boosh-ability?

We really need him to score from distance more, IE at least 6 or 7 times, so that the Torp-edo nickname can take off.

Clearly it’s not Boosh.
