Where was BDR tonight? Normally disappears after 60 mins, but was anonymous all game.
He looked slow. He hardly ever was on the attacking end. Is he playing with a knock?
I think Parker had a knock on head was as he didn't replace him!
Juggling between a couple of sources tonight it was interesting to hear "signed from Bristol City", "signed from Huddersfield", "on loan from Lyon as not getting game time in" alongside "big money signing international wonder kid"
We were a long way off being Prem ready and fixed bits and crossed fingers for the rest. 'On loan from Lyon' has done alright out of this way of working and will be off sharpish but as for the rest I suspect they will back out on loan elsewhere or as with BDR back in their comfort zone.
BDR has been one of our best plahers this year. He has been asked to play a really difficult role, and a xounterb productive one. He has effectively been a full back for most fixtures.Yet he is top scorer and regularly covers the most turf.
The players who have been awful like RLC and Cav have cost us dear. The selection of them week in and week out for no productive reason at all has ruined the chances of survival.
Meanwhile we allowed all the players who have speed up top (Knock/AK/Kebano) and even StefJo to leave on loan. Just terrible management, why have them in the squad to start with if you are going to chuck them out, why chuck them out when you have no other forwards left in the squad.
We put all our faith in Lookman and RLC and they both let us down.That penalty summed up his level of intelligence.
