https://x.com/Callumw_15/status/1828873 ... 18075?s=19


100 appearances, but never given a proper run and starts.

Their is Quality that is needed badly, I’ve said it for years.

He’s 22 years old




Rubin has been outstanding, not just the goal

When Alex Roberson scored , Rubin made it

Rubin outstanding

I'd consider dropping Rambo or Sio and starting Rubin this Saturday.

It won't happen though. If it does, I'll eat the match programme.

I 100% agree

But I doubt it with Bulut.

Rubin scored that In front of Wales manager Craig Bellamy, who is in the directors' box at CCS tonight.

Would be more than happy to see Ramsey & Colwill on together.

Totally agree. Had a growth spurt over the years but now he is right. He comes on when we are down and when it does not come off is targeted, but the senior players and manager gets a free ride. Play him starting for 10 games.

Why do most commentators say bulut rates him (said it tonight) yet doesn't give him a run in team?

Re: “ I will say it again and again “

Wed Aug 28, 2024 7:33 pm

100%, give him a chance or sell the poor fucker and let him play football

How do you work that out? I don't think he ever gets targeted, saying he's inconsistent isn't targeting him. If you want to see what targeted looks like go & read a thread on any one of our attackers.

Re: “ I will say it again and again “

Wed Aug 28, 2024 7:37 pm

Always said he shouldn’t start games but fair play, proving me wrong so far tonight.

Not just the goal but is linking up with other players well too, some nice play.


BUT that yellow card he got shows a lot of petulance and he needs to cut that out.

If you read all the comments - they say consistently he came on as sub when we are down and have a go at him as he has not turned it around.

Re: “ I will say it again and again “

Not sure he can replace a Siopis or Ralls role.

For him to play, we don't play Ramsey?

Re: “ I will say it again and again “

Wed Aug 28, 2024 7:42 pm

Now is the time. He's been our most (and only) exciting player for months. There will be off days but he's got something.

Re: “ I will say it again and again “

Wed Aug 28, 2024 7:51 pm

I have been watching Rubin for 4 seasons and still don't know where and how i would play him.

I have said he'll end up a 6 but other day say a 9, he should be an 8 rather than a 10......

Be interesting with him and Robertson now, as Bulut is welded to 2 static DM's

Fair dues respect.

Football is a simple game.......

Smack it across the face of goal and anything can happen

Re: “ I will say it again and again “

Wed Aug 28, 2024 7:55 pm

I would very much like sio dropped and rubs to start, sio hasn't been as good as his first 10 games he's so in and out


Rubin would come on leaps and bounds playing week in week out

Re: “ I will say it again and again “

Wed Aug 28, 2024 7:57 pm

Up until now I’ve always rated him but didn’t think he could play 90 mins and effect it enough.

Based on what I’ve seen this season Bulut has definitely improved his overall game to the point where I think we should give him a run of games.

He’s certainly learning and improving which is probably the most encouraging thing.

I'd drop sio and have collwill 10 with Ramsey and ralls / Robertson deeper

Rubin is not going to get the credit, or the assist, for the third goal but he deserved it.

He’s at his level a glorified reserve match.
Can’t do it with the big boys consistently though.

Has he been given a run of say 5 starts? NO

But made 100 appearances at 22 yrs in the Championship.

Name another City Academy player to do that in the last 14 yrs please?

Bore off will you.

If its not one player it's another. If its not the players its the manager.

Go and have a walk or read a book or something that makes you slightly happier.

Well said:

Either those with doubts about Rubin, I agree that he does have Quality.

I can’t.
But he’s not had a run of 5 starts for a reason.
He’s played 100 appearances at 22 which is no longer a kid, and there’s next to no one trying to sign this so called talent. I’m as gutted as the next man but he just hasn’t got it.
In my opinion.

Given enough game time he’ll come good 100%

He’s had a 100 appearances is that not enough game time?
I hope your right.
