only1swanny Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 Cravies grafts but has bugger all end product. Which has been the same with ngog Beckford Mason Sordell Davies. .. so maybe it's the tactics rather than the players. Quote
Mounts Kipper Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 (edited) Moritz is one of our biggest threats this season ok he's. Not quick but at least he has something about him. Jutkewitc (or however you spell it) is a better version of cravies imo. Cravies grafts but has bugger all end product. Have you seen jutkiewicz play? If not how can you judge him? Davies has played just 2 games this season rattled the bar the other night and carried a threat, Davies played 18 times last season and a lot of them were as a substitute he scored 4 goals coming into a new team before he signed for us in 101 games he scored 42 goals, hardly a no goal threat is that. I suggest the Scottish plank gives him a run and see what his goal stats are after 10 games, no doubt it won't happen and Davies will be shipped out, that will be a real shame as I said in another post I believe he's a late developer I can see him doing something similar to Ricky lambert although obviously no England call up.

ex_midlandwhite Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 CD did rattle the bar Tuesday but didn't really hold the ball up at all. Our best move of the match was the new lad holding it up back to goal and playing Chungy in with a really cute ball. Of course the shot was fired over though Quote

Mounts Kipper Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 Fucking hell Mounts that's quite a leap you're taking there from what we've seen I might be completely wrong but sometimes with big lads the penny drops mid 20s there are lots of examples just get a hunch he could be one of those. Either way he's worth a longer look than the 20 starts he's had for us. Quote

The guy is 28. I'm not waiting till he's 35 to see if he comes good. Quote
Mounts Kipper Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 (edited) . The guy is 28. I'm not waiting till he's 35 to see if he comes good. 2 good examples of strikers who did it for us after going round the block are SJM and KD, he's played 20 games for us many as sub Freedman said he was not fit he is fit now looks a threat good physical strength something we've not had in our team since KD in his pomp and we've missed that, give the lad a chance.

Casino Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 but write mason off at 14? from what i've seen davies deserves a run round i dunno what his like off the pitch Quote
Horwich Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 He will never have another free transfer like glenn murray in his team...that was the difference Quote
Casino Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 Which has been the same with ngog Beckford Mason Sordell Davies. .. so maybe it's the tactics rather than the players. bullshit unless i'm missing the fact that they have all been scoring 1 in 2 until they arrived at bolton Quote

Saw him a few times during his time at Cov. Was pretty handy, not much of a goal threat admittedly but brought others in to play very well. Just feel he offers more than Cravies Quote
SnoopJohnnyJohn Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 I suggest the Scottish plank gives him a run and see what his goal stats are after 10 games And after 5 or 6 games without scoring everyone will be on Dougie's back for continually playing a player who can't score... And you'll probably be one of them. Quote

And you'll probably be one of them. If any striker picked by Dougie doesn't score in 5 or 6 games we should be on DF's back though Shouldn't we?! As we'll more than likely be in a relegation spot if that happens Unless said player had set up a fair few maybe? Quote

Also, like all other forwards at that time, was hampered rather than helped by the man formerly known as SKD. Quote
Leigh Exile Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 Our forward are hampered by how we play; rarely do our wingers/ wide midfielders skin someone, get to the byline and pull it back. Most of the balls to Davies on Tuesday were played with his back to goal, he nor anyone else has much chance. Quote
ianovit Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 Why are we arguing the toss about the merits of strikers past and present when the problem lies with our shit defence? No team can compete at any level if they are conceding fuckin comic cut goals nearly every week.This is why confidence is so low and why CYL for example panics and snatches when he has a shooting chance. Quote
DazBob Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 This is why confidence is so low and why CYL for example panics and snatches when he has a shooting chance. Our players miss gilt-edged chances because our defence is prone to mistakes?? I'm not having that. Quote
ianovit Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 Understand where you are coming from but confidence is a massive factor and we don't have any, primarily because the defence is so dodgy. Quote
Casino Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 confidence is a massive factor its another reason why dawson was so great for us him nicking goals got us in front in games but, re lee his finishing is generally dog shit i still have nightmares about that pathetic effort against blackpool last season and if confidence wasn't high then, it never ever will be Quote
The Spragg Dog Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 We need to try something different instead of this rigid mentality we have got. Quote

No he doesn't he tries another pass when he gets a shooting chance. Quote
