" Karlan Grant "

Sat Aug 12, 2023 4:51 pm

Desperately needs a goal.

His confidence looked at rock bottom today.

We know he's a good player at this level but it's going to take a goal for him to get back to those levels.

Must admit surprised to see him stay on as long as he did

He should have substituted after 20 minutes. He was useless

Hence why wba don't want him and he's not a wideman imo

Just not happening for him, maybe needs to be taken out for a few games

He was gash

Was told he is a one trick pony, cuts inside and shoots. They cut that option off today, hence no influence on the game.

He looked good preseason

Him and O'dowda looked totally confused today

He is striker so effing play him there he scores goals we got no one who can score goals so ffs play grant striker sorry but we have a poor manager who cannot see why grant was worth money it is because he run through and score goals

An we play him on the wing 2 games been useless why because he is a striker unless we change things League 1 is on its way
we were shocking today I was ashamed of the dire shit we played today

Needs to play through the middle that's his best position! He ain't a winger and we have better anyway? :ayatollah:

He's not a winger simple as. Never seen O'Dowda have a shitter until today and that was down to him being a liability.

He looks poor, very poor

He needs to play up top

He has been poor so far I agree. But Grants goals died up at wba when he was shoved outside and Robinson joined us. The two linked up for quite a few goals the season before. They have only had 15 mins together this season. I am quite exited by the potential of a Ramsey, Robinson, Grant combination.

2 real games in and he’s being written off by some.
Yes he should have been subbed earlier but to say he is shite etc is a bit harsh ….new club…new manager ..new team mates…
Tanner got the same treatment off some last season and now others want him to start Leciester game .

Worst piece of business this club have made god knows how much a week we are paying can we send him back also why do we always put 2 players at the corner flag when we finally win a corner this playing from the back must stop it takes us 1000 passes to make 50metres why not just Hoff it up field and compete for it in the oppositions half from being really excited yesterday today I feel we are going to struggle just like last year hope and pray I'm wrong

He's defo not a winger, not enough pace unlike the QPR right winger yesterday. I don't think Bulut knows his best team yet. Maybe he should have a behind closed doors 'possibles' v 'probables' match to pin down those 11 places.

Since watching him at Leeds I’ve never rated him , we have better players to take his place

He is rubbish

Re: " Karlan Grant "

People slated Philogene last season until he was integral to our plans in the second half

Agree that is Grant's trade mark move - Needs a goal soon or could do with him teaming up again with Robbo .

First few friendlies he looked hard working and sharp, he's looking weaker and weaker as every game goes by, something is wrong, Bowler was brilliant at Leeds and shyte on Saturday whats going wrong with the tactics?

Bulut needs to get them playing this week in training!

he looks like a right big lump, he's probably best playing as the target man to hold up the ball and bring others into play. we know he is a striker, so probably should be competing with Ugbo to play that role, but Ugbo seems to be making the right moves, runs even if he doesn't get the ball.

me personally, would rather O'Dowda on the wing, running at defenders whipping balls in, knowing we have someone like Grant winning headers and flick ons for someone like ramsey to get on the end of
