    Pony player, carries no more goal threat than Michael Jordan.

    Obviously as a giant, he gets well marked at corners, but when you compare him at Andy Carroll, you see you need power and movement as wel.

    A few of Jackson's goals have come from corners as he manages to find space, Texeira has scored twice for us with headers, so it can be done.

    I think, I'd rather have Tucudean up front that Makienok...

    Your wish is granted. I believe he is contracted for a further year!

    Makienok offers something in the air if used properly (as in getting crosses into the box).

    Give me one definitive trait of Tucudean's game....what exactly can the guy do?

    The master plan is coming together, we'll be playing at a level next season that all the network misfits won't look so much out of their depth, I can't wait. :open_mouth:

    Tucudean got half a season, then got bombed out. That coincided with Igor scoring all those goals, and he did score that great goal against Derby.

    He's a more technical player than Makienok, he's not the striker I'd choose to sign, but never really was given a fair chance here after that miss against Millwall

    Ah don't remind me. He saw the whites of David Fordes eyes.......and failed like every other one on one since!

    He has the wrong attitude, I won't be sad to see him go.

    He's not good but the amount of abuse he gets sent to him on Twitter is horrific. Who has the time/desire to send shit to players personally on Twitter?
    If he's the worst player you've ever seen then you have a short memory.

    Yeah I ended up calling someone out which I've never done on Twitter as it's ultimately a losing argument. But I really don't understand that. You can see the variety of opinions on him, but at no point in here does anyone say "he doesn't give a toss." And it's not like he's said racists things (like Vardy) or tried to strangle his partner (Danny Simpson being the latest) or some other heinous off-field act.

    However shitty we may believe the attitudes of some of our players to be, there will always be someone in the crowd with an even shittier attitude. Twitter has just given them a means to personally abuse players in front of a much larger audience instead of just everyone in ear shot on the terraces. No idea why players are there to be honest.

    He tries hard and is left frustrated often by the fact he is not good enough and is not used to the physical game.

    He'll look even worse next season once we've completed his signing.

    Don't think anyone hates him - just not rated by many.

    He's not the worse player in the world and I'm guessing won't ever be prolific, except in maybe a league like the Danish one. Whenever I've seen him play he's either been very good or very bad. No real 'In between' performances.

    Didn't he say at the start of the season that he wanted to score 10 goals - and the view was, hang on, that's fine if you're a midfielder but not if you're a forward - and he's not even managed that.

    You cant really moan at him for that seeing no one else has done any better though

    Strange signing looking back. He needs crosses yet all out wide midfielders at the start of the season were generally more comfortable cutting in from their "wrong" side, JBG, Moussa, Ceballos (may be wrong on him), Cousins when played on the left, McAleny.

    I don't think we got the best out of him but I don't want us to bring him back, even in League One.
