barrycowdrill Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Dan got 4 in a season and a half for a Cheltenham side that ‘didn’t create much’ and ‘hardly had any of the ball’ in the meantime May got around 35 in the same period… We aren’t challenging for the autos with the former. We would with the latter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northender Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Work colleague from Cheltenham says he's got another year but has said he wants to leave, probably to Charlton where he's from. He also doesn't rate Dan one bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theyve really not been that bad. Shoretire is about 12 and Jerome 45. The other two have just been alright. Work in progress on Vin. Injuries and thrown in to a different role. He will come good him.

Mantra Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Randell seems to be becoming the new Kachunga on Twitter especially. Because his first couple of games were poor, people have got it into their heads that Declan John is streets ahead of him, which really isn’t the case. They’re both decent without being amazing. John seems to be a bit of a moody bugger though, maybe Randell has got a better attitude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radcliffe white Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Apart from a few occasions Randell just doesn’t move forward with the ball, he asks for the ball but then plays back majority of the time, if he’s to be the guy on the left he needs to be more creative its like with Vic he needs a good pre season and hopefully kick on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that's anything to do with it. Its not that he's never done anything decent - occasionally we see what he's got unlike Vic for eg - but its just that he doesn't seem an IE type player. Whoever's on the pitch, it feels like we have 10 players all playing to a pattern, knowing their jobs, good body language, clearly motivated, aggressive in and out of possession, and then there's Randall who seems to do his own thing, or do the least that is acceptable. I've nothing against him and if he improves great, but I'm just surprised IE sees a player in him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he scores 8 or 9, maybe 1 a month, there will be arguments that he's justified his place - Kachunga didn't score and he still had plenty of support, so there'll probably never be an agreement on if he's worth a regular starting place.

Toney was being shit at Wigan at around the same age Dan was when he was at Cheltenham. May is a fair bit older. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing with Nlundulu is he's a bit older than he seems At the same age, Toney had just signed for Brentford after scoring 40 in 76 in the third tier I think there's a plaher there and Evatt seems very keen but he's not exactly a young pup either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitesince63 Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 I agree with IE that there’s definitely a player in there with Dan and if he can mould him into our style of play he could be a good one but he’s still got another year left at Southampton and I wouldn’t want to loan him again, turn him into the next Toney then find we can’t afford him, or he walks away to a better offer which is always the problem with loans.

I wouldn't be up in arms either way. I get the mystery box element of having someone totally new in on loan, but equally Dan and Shola clearly have some ability so why not give them a full pre-season learning Evatt-ball?

I've no particular opinion of Dan, what will be will be, but he's 24 and he's scored 7 goals in 56 games. I get that Toney was a relatively late developer, but he'd scored 11 for Northampton before he was 20 and another 24 in the next 3 years before he took off at Posh. He'd scored 76 by the time he was 24 (pre-Brentford). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might not be much consolation to him if he doesnt get sorted at some level or other but he was front and centre of probably one of the most important seasons we've ever had so wish him all the best.
