Or maybe because he’d worked with JJ for 2 years and played for us so knew all of our players. Or we were the only team willing to take on Castillo as part of the deal. I think every team would be interested in a player that can score 20 goals from the bench at this leveladdick1956 said:
That explains why he ended up back here. Every other club in this league wanted him .NabySarr said:
He is still good from the start, but as a sub against defenders that have been on all game he has the pace to get in behind which adds a lot to his game that he doesn’t have from the start. He’s the best sub in the league and when he’s used as just that he is fit for most of the season. He turns draws into wins and losses into draws, I can’t believe there is any criticism of a signing like that and he is probably the only player in our squad other than maybe Dobson that every other team in the league would want as part of their squadRedrobo said:
When Chucks has started I don’t think he has been effective as when he comes on as a sub. Maybe because he feels the need to pace himself?cafcfan1990 said:
Exactly. It’s undeniably a bit frustrating he cannot play a little longer but at least he gets the opportunity to have an impact on a lot of games. That’s still invaluablethenewbie said:
Except the number of games is NOT low. That's exactly the point. He doesnt start and finish whole games but he actually played in a lot of them.addick1956 said:
Why introduce Bogle... that is not the argument.cafcfan1990 said:
He done a lot more in his "25 minutes" than Bogle did starting. I appreciate you've got a real issue with a player not being able to start, I actually get that, but surely you can understand it's all about what he does when he is on the pitch? Ultimately, that is what determines whether he's successful and whether he's an asset.addick1956 said:
He struggles to play 25 minutes. Perhaps he makes up for it by working from home ?😃cafcfan1990 said:
Aneke played 31 times last season, which was 6 more games than Bostock. The season before he played 41, 23 times more than Bostock. You have to go back to 2016/2017 to find a season where Bostock played more games than Aneke.addick1956 said:
We saw Aneke how many times and how many of those were 90 mins ?cafcfan1990 said:
As usual, that's incorrect.addick1956 said:
Your last statement is on the way to making him a scape goat 🐐.Scoham said:
No one has made Bostock a scapegoat. Having doubts about whether a player relegated with Doncaster who also spent a lot of time out injured would be a good signing isn’t scapegoating at all. We already have two players in Inniss and Aneke who struggle to play twice a week, Bostock would likely be another.addick1956 said:
Well said... it is not as though he cannot play so why make a scape goat of him before he arrives and plays.FishCostaFortune said:Our owner wants us to play possession based dynamic passing football, it is likely we are going to be bringing in a young progressive manager whose team had the number one stats in the relevant areas in league last season.Why wouldn’t we be linked with a player, on a free, who had the 4th highest pass success rate in the league last year, and by all means is a local lad and player we have looked to sign in the past?
Does not seem that out there a bit of business to me.
He certainly plays more regularly than Sick note Aneke.
Admittedly, Aneke does struggle to play 90 minutes but the fact is he impacts games regardless of whether he starts or not. That's the stat that really matters, not how long he plays for.
I have a problem with a player who can not start or cannot finish a game but this bloke cost £300k . How many minutes did he do at Birmingham ? The number of games may be immaterial if it is low and ask yourself this. Bowyer was quick to return him but why ?But totally agree his impact as a sub is significant both on the pitch and by giving the fans a lift, which makes him a valuable player to have in our squad. An absolute bargain at £300k.1 -
Could be, he was linked with Man City last summer.cafcsinger said:I doubt Huddersfield are really in for that 6 ft 9 striker, probably just agent talk so they hope a league 2 team comes in for him

‘Retaining the premier league title will be a tall ask for Pep Guardiola's troops this season and he reckons the 6ft 9in striker could help them do so.‘

A player we should be going for if we are serious about top 2. Will probably end up with Grant McCann again at Peterborough unfortunately

Said a source close to the Abu Dhabi owners "Those intricate passing triangles are all very well, but what the fans really want to see is the keeper and defenders launching it from the back to a big target man striker. Long throws into the box, players getting stuck in. We need to stop all that fannying around with it".
It is thought that Pep Guardiola is unhappy with this pressure to change his style, and is rumoured to be interested in the Swindon Town job.6 -

This is not my opinion and runs counter to the evidence of when he has played against us but...
...my Hull City supporting mate thinks Malik Wilks is rubbish and has no idea how to play football (but admits that he has pace and strength).0 -
Did he confuse Wills with Leko/Jaiyesimi?Cordoban Addick said:This is not my opinion and runs counter to the evidence of when he has played against us but...

Marty is still scouring Championship Manager 96-97 season and trying to work out how to execute the cheat in real life - by selling Josh Davison to Man Utd for £10m before then spunking all the money on Steve Stone and Colin Cooper.NabySarr said:A player we should be going for if we are serious about top 2.

Scott Fraser takes penalties. He scored 9 of them for MK Dons last season before joining Ipswich.0 -

25 years old. Joined Rochdale in January from Woking.
First half of the 21-22 season he had 13 goals in 21 games at National League level. 2 goals from 13 appearances in League Two since.0 -
Underwhelming I would say but in Martin we trust!8
