Has to start through the middle in the absence of Etete and Meite for me.

Ugbo is like playing with 10 men, and his right place goals have dried up completely.

Maybe play Bowler and Tanner out wide?

We let Harris go last season and Davoes is on loan, both are better than Ugbo

Really? I can understand Ugbo has limitations but he's an upgrade on both of them. He's not a no 9 in my view. Needs to play off a big striker.

Grant put in a lot of good crosses today that our players didn't take advantage of.

He's better out wide.

But apart from Chelsea youth on his CV, what has he done in football ? I was shocked to read he is 25.

He doesn't look electric off the mark which is normally the main trait playing off the striker. I just don't think we win many with him starting

Possibly the funniest thing I’ve heard for weeks.

He has only regularly scored goals at the same level that Bagan is currently playing, Davies is one level higher.

Didn't realise he was 25. Thought he was closer to 21

Agree, was saying earlier I think grants a better option down the middle.

Maybe mate but while Ugbo isn’t great, he’s still better than the 3 we shipped out. My opinion of course :thumbup:

There is good news about Robinson too - he didn't need a shower after the game ( lazy b***ard).
