I was sceptical about Bogle from the start, but agree that much of the criticism is well OTT, as was the criticism of Bonne before him. We've not created many chances since the start of 2020, generating massive pressure on the striker to score the one good chance he might get, when no striker will take every chance they get, especially at L1 level.
Bogle is poor, the two goals he scored he looked like he would miss, even with an open goal against Swindon.
I get the impression that you didn't really see or understand that incident.
Watch the highlights. As Bogle was going round the keeper, he was clearly fouled by the keeper. Despite being knocked off balance and stumbling, to Bogle's credit he tried to stay on his feet and rolled the ball into the net.
Other players may have just gone down for a penalty. It would have been an easier option.
Bogle should at least be given credit where it is due.
Are you going to defend what happened 5 minutes later?

That wasn't the question, was it?
Okay, the previous statement was that bogle is poor and even looked like he was going to miss an open goal.
yes, bogle is poor and even when he scores, he looks like he is going to miss an open goal.
Bogle got more goals than Hemed and Parker put together, don’t know why he gets so much grief!
Hemed was the league above, which is a big step up, in a struggling side. Parker was awful but was part of a team that got promoted, so is forgotten. For me, Bogle is one of the worst strikers I have ever seen play for us, up there with Abbott
Hemed was shit and so was parker, bogle is a better player then parker thats for sure.
Anyway back on topic, I would love the last/next signing to be a 19-21 year old left sided center back on a perm to be back up to Famewo this season and either first choice in league 1 next season or back up to A N Other in the championship next season.
Bogle defo off, gallen hinted at it in his prre match talk. for me we need a good Defensive mid (unless watson comes back in) to protect the area in front of the defence
I think we need a lot more mobility than Watson or Pratley offer and this coupled with a largely snail like defence is a big issue. A huge amount resting on Akin and Ryan being fit. I have a feeling more than Bogle will leave. I think we’ll try again late for Randall but Bows still sees a mobile box to box cm as the priority.

I agree. Someone with a bit of drive and mobility . These two are well past that. Someone like Beilek. I thought the lad from Bournemouth would have been perfect.

Randall and Ofoborh would be superb if very unlikely

Looks like signing that 6th striker was much more important than proper defensive cover.
Season is over.
Essentially he is saying Pearce and Oshilaja are good enough quality backup players.
I disagree, we might have numbers at CB but they're not good enough to get us promoted. We need to be able to replace Innis and Famewo with similar quality and we can't.
Innis has been fantastic so far, but like with Matthews last year, this has been by far the best he has seemingly done in a not short career, so it would be silly to put that much pressure on him coming back from injury and solving all our defensive issues, and not look to bring someone else in assuming that form keeps up when he's back, and that he can start every game.

He played 5 games. At 25 he has never played more than 22 in a season. He is the sort of player that Gallen just has to get away from signing.

We currently have 6 strikers on the payroll and conceding 2 goals a game.
Can I just call him Dave?
for me we need a good Defensive mid (unless watson comes back in) to protect the area in front of the defence
aneke
stockley
washington
bogle who is likely to be moved on
schwartz?
thats 5
let’s add Miller, Maddison and Davison to the list as well. Plus the two youngsters that played against orient in the pointless cup.
I thought the lad from Bournemouth would have been perfect.
Schwartz, Aneke, Bogle, Stockley and Washington won't all be on 2k a week. Seems a waste of money if 3 of them at a time won't be playing.
2 decent centre backs is what this team needs.
