Very confused by Mowbrays refusal to let MJ play the full game.

Plymouth's new centre half looks quite decent tbf, he's won a lot.

Think we will win after some changes and stepping it up second half, desperately need a forward on the pitch though but Lankshear solves this issue for the next game at least.

Just wanted to shout out to Callum Styles. He’s been such a great buy, every week he gets better and better.

Such a useful player too, can play well in a number of positions.

LB is perfect for him though, a good LB can act as a playmaker at times, as can RB (See Trent) so he can influence play.

Becoming a cult hero this lad is

My favourite player at the minute, love the comparison to Trent as Stylesy is absolutely everywhere when we're attacking and he's just a classy player.

Have to say as well, for being 5'nothing he sure does win some headers!

Looks a decent prospect and he actually looks physically big enough and ready to play Championship football unlike previous loans.

Happy with this.

West Bromwich Albion FC / Ollie Bostock

« on: January 29, 2025, 11:45:25 AM »

Everytime I've seen him he looks a really good prospect, both footed, quick and puts the ball in the back of the net. Really want to see him get at least some minutes this season.

Him, Whitwell and Heard are my three I want to see involved next season in some capacity.

What a goal that was from Ollie Bostock, brilliant finish after running the length of the pitch.

Everytime I've seen him he looks a real prospect, both footed and real eye for a goal.

I’m desperate to see him in midfield, I guess the only way that works while keeping Heggem in the middle is if Frabotta has enough about him to play left back although for now there’s no need to really change anything from yesterday.

And me, he's our best player on the ball in the team. I mean, to be fair to him, even playing left back he basically goes where he wants and effects the game.

Immense yesterday, his dribbling caused them so many problems and the way he made the two pompey players collide into each other for the second goal was like a Harlem Globetrotters routine. Deserved a goal yesterday but think he will flourish under Mowbray.

This kid is PROPER an absolute baller. Some of the passes he pinged were beutiful and seem to have time in everything he does. What a player he looks.

Agreed, looked a classy player already at 21.

Biggest bloke on the pitch and he gets pushed around like a toddler.

Theres a player there but not in this league, too quick and strong for him.

Well, he got over 30 minutes up front today. How did he look? Ready for a full 90 minutes or not nearly good enough? Thoughts.

Dreadful but worst thing was he didn't look bothered in the slightest. As a forward coming on at 5-0 you'd be raring to go against a rubbish team he just didn't look interested.

Mowbray called him out and he responded with that, poor.

Ahhh i cursed it by saying Doak looks ordinary

He's done nothing all game tbf, great finish but Styles and Heggem kept him very quiet.

His stats for Leige paint a picture of a ball carrier rather than a passer, though it's always hard to separate a player from the team/system they play in. He isn't an assister or goal-scorer at Liege.

Scored 6 in 18 for NI national team, some good goals as well. Potentially a more forward thinking Molumby, we desperately need someone who is going to drive the ball forward in the middle of the pitch.

Superb today, he was absolutely everywhere. Wasting him at left back, need to move him inside and let him drive that ball forward.

Morrison was at the training ground today

Mowbray with his golden boys Brunt and Morrison and hope the nostalgia carries us to the play offs.

I thought he was dreadful and made my feelings known but he's been fine the last 3 games. Still not a starter for me but compared to Racic he's atleast involved in the game, good or bad.

Agree, we are definitely moving the ball forward quickly and generally getting more players into the box.
It's the game management that concerns me.
Getting the right person in is the most important thing.

Tbf, we did this under Corberan aswell I think we just struggle to see out wins for whatever reason.

I thought we were great today for 93 minutes, moved the ball quicker and faster and on another day we go in 3 up at half time. We need someone who is going to get us playing this same way and if there not out there then we need to wait.

They didn't even look like shooting let alone scoring so to give that away is dreadful.

There was a lot of praise for the summer transfer window but my word most these signings look very far off championship standard. Even sunday league players rarely have a touch as bad as Diakite there.

4th or 5th time he's done it so far today, he's awful.
