Stive Pesley Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 To be fair we know Theo can score goals - he scored plentry for us - it was the rest of his game that was the problem, more specifically the number of blatant chances he missed.

YoungUttoxRam Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 No he's a poor player despite his efforts and occasional goal, his stats on FIFA are poor too so I'm not arsed he has gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that was the case why is Sammon still with us? I think Theo get some over the top criticism, yes his touch was often poor but he knew how to get into the right position to get shots in on goal....he was a forward who knew how to score goals at this level & for a 150k Donny have got a bargain.... Wonder if we have a got a bargain with Russell, a player unproven at this level...or will he be another failed lucky dip buy ...Think that sum's up our investment in players, that a lucky dip player is our star signing..

Asanovic Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I'd much rather have Sammon than Robinson. Good luck to him though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostyn6 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I cannot believe how backwards some people are when it comes to football. Have Nigel Clough's constant excuses and drivel corrupted your brain power or what? Let me explain something quite simple. Goals win games. If a player has an allround decent game but doesn't score and a different player as an average game but does score, then one has had a positive effect on the game and one hasn't. Sadly, endeavour alone wins nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChaddesdenRam Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Depends on what you want as a striker. Theo's all round game is poor but he will score goals. Sammon's all round game is much better and will have more assists but he won't score as much. Depends on your needs. I think Chris Martin is a better combination of the two, will score but also has better team play such as holding the ball up, winning fouls and getting other players involved.

I'll ask the same question I asked another poster - did you praise Clough for getting a bargain when he signed Theo and did you lavish both the manager and player with praise when Theo was in the team?

Gary Teale Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I think theo offers more than salmon. We have had no money according to many yet we have someone for 3/4s million who is going to be sat on the bench. Better spent on the back 4 and a good centre half Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gcdcfc28 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Chris Martin hasn't had a prolific season since Norwichs sin in league one Conor Sammon hasn't had a prolific season since the 10/11 season Johnny Russell has had one season where he's scored we a dozen goals Mason Bennett is in the deleopment squad Conor Doyle in the good ol' USA Expect plenty of goals this season lads.

I've actually said countless times that Theo was a steal at 150,000 and have indeed praised Clough for his capture (along with Ward). Both of those players scored goals and created chances - I'll try and find a post later if it means that much to you. On a flip side, find me a post where I've attacked Clough for playing him please or said anything bad towards Theo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, endeavour alone wins nothing. You are oversimplifying it. A player having as you say "an all round decent game" may well have created situations where other players have scored. It is a team game and not about individuals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell Hull and Cardiff that... They both built teams where their strikers failed to score in the vast majority of games... Expect plenty of goals this season lads. 4 games in and the wrist slashers are out in force... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
