His best point has been some of his set delivery’s but there are also corners that go straight off the pitch He tries super hard and there are green shoots of recovery although I’m not seeing what others are but in all honesty I’m a football snob who won’t be tugging any of this worst footballing period in our history’s players off too much .
The corners that go straight off the pitch is a product of him always trying to make them dangerous , rather than just aimlessly chipping them into the box, which we’ve had all season .
I agree - he’s no Claus Jensen , but we are in division 3.
Of the 2 in the first half that sailed out, one was a cockup but the second to the far post was very close to Famewo there, and was a legitimate attempt at a difficult delivery. The second time he tried that corner we scored.
I said to make him captain last week and got roundly mocked. Well, Gilbey was our captain today. I don't feel I need to add anything to that
Gilbey’s display today made me long for Darren Pratley . Can’t abide players that hide .
Pratley never, ever hid. I'll give him that. Would have been a large improvement. Wouldn't have given us much play going forwards, but would have at least done something about Oxford's effortless progress
He still lacks the defensive side of his game, if he gets that he will become a complete player, if not then this is probably the highest level he will reach.

This IS the highest level he will reach, bottom of league one!☹️
When you analyse the recent performances of Gilbey, Fraser and Lee, it's a nonsense that Morgan can't even make the bench
It’s a farce . Lee has been awful, let’s be honest - Gilbey has been very occasionally effective , or god awful, or has more often hidden, Fraser has been useless - it’s crass that Morgan has been ditched for one average performance away at Wigan .

Been ditched because he had so many chances to stake his calm he failed every time … that’s why not just one game
Agreed its a bit depressing that actually Morgan doesn’t look any worse than Lee, Gilbey or Fraser, but that doesn’t really help because none of them look very good

How many good games have Lee and Fraser had lately ? He was playing well . I know it’s fashionable on here to say how bad he is but he was good in most of the games when he played .
Are we sure he hasn't just picked up a knock in training? - Its bizarre how he's just disappeared so suddenly.
Was unused on the bench against Sunderland and Accrington, and hasnt been seen since, so its not like he's been subbed on in either game and has put in a disappointing performance - Unless he's said something stupid in training.
Not picked by a manager who continues to play players out of form, out of position, injury prone, can't last 90 mins. Not picked by a manager who is failing in many areas.
A manager that has picked a formation continually that on results doesn't work.
Many fans don't rate Albie but I do and think he would thrive in a better side actually. Technically better at passing, set play delivery and commits to shutting down the opposition for 90 mins than many others.
Albie maybe better off at another club but those who continue to want a homegrown scapegoat e.g. Fox wont be happy until they run another out of this broken club.
To digress a little, there may be a clue to the performances of Frazer and Gilbey in that they both suffered bad bouts of Co vid but I think Albie coming on against Wimbledon may have given us a better attacking edge, he wasn't on the bench so I'm starting to wonder if he may be moved on, shame if that's the case.
