    Sordell was worse than Obika. At least Obika tried. I would like to see Obika & Reza down the middle, frustrating seeing them on the wings when they so clearly want to be in and around the box

    Really I thought Sordell put held it up put a decent ball in for CH.

    I think our major problem with Reza, sordell and piggot is we don't have nearly enough possession in the areas they need it.

    Too much 40 yards from goal with your back to it.

    I had hopes for Obika when he came for this loan spell. So far i've been disappointed. After last night, utterly disappointed.

    he's still the best we've got which says something

    So do I, fortunately Sordell can't play. If Solly is fit, Wilson has to play wide right as he should have last night. Toss a coin for wide left. Morgan Fox will surely be ahead of Evina to deputise for Wiggins.

    Would say last night was his best performance for us (then again, I don't rate him that highly). Actually showed his pace when getting on the end of Hamer's kicks in the first half and also won quite a few knock-ons, which nobody has done whatsoever since Yann left.

    Yes showed pace to get on the end of them but what did he do when he got there absoloutly nothing first one was a feeble cross second one he turnt back inside into trouble and lost it, complete cack

    He has barely started a game all season though so bound to be rusty-he wins headers and has pace which is two strengths none of our strikers possess. He needs to start every game in my opinion and hopefully we have enough time for him to improve and score some goals to help keep us up....

    Better this than anything involving Church.

    agree....and the "alongside" is key, not on the wings

    Obika has joined the ranks of Church and Sordell...poor sod. Very disappointing. No doubt we will buy him end of season....

    Agree - 4-3-3 just doesn't work against sides that pack the midfield - neither does one of our centre forwards against 2 typical Championship centre backs.

    I said Obika was shite from the first time we had him and I will say it again he is proper shite and sordell the man would not score goals for a Sunday pub side let alone a championship side

    Won't go as far as you, but I also thought the same when he joined last season and was shocked he actually scored for us. Was underwhelmed when I heard he came back, as I really don't think he's a championship player. The most worrying aspect of it all for me is he's probably the best option we've got. So in laymans terms, We're f**ked.................
