Anag Ram Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 I am not going to come to any rushed judgments but I did think he was rather timid on his debut. He is quite frail and skinny and this isn't the division for shrinking violets. I hope he survives to make use of his obvious ball skills. If he is going to play wide he will also need to beef up his defensive game to support Wisdom or Forsyth. When everyone is fit there will be at least two forwards not even on the bench.

His movement was quite good, but, alas, nobody seemed to want to pass to him. Or Bennett, they hardly got a touch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-JW- Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 I watched through the medium of a screen and thought he did alright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uptherams Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 This lad has great positioning, composure and scores goals. People are writing him off already. Watch this space, he is a talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Fran Van Rams Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 He seemed alright watching on Sky. Good touch and took up some good positions. Was always going to be difficult coming on as a sub away at Leicester but thought he did ok. Would prefer to see him start on Saturday vs. Brighton than Ward.

abertawe_ram Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Bet he plays instead of Wardy on Saturday Neither of the wide men were impressive against Leicester (though the whole team were a bit off it) and both got subbed so I wonder if Steve might change things up. Bamford could well be in with a shout and Steve was talking up Bennett in midweek, I wonder if either could be in line for a start? Good to know even with Russell injured we have a few options Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to know even with Russell injured we have a few options McClaren did elude to the fact, in the rams in focus video, that "you need your experienced players at times like this". Then named "your, Keogh's Buxton's Granty Eustace Chris Martin to an extent and Jamie Ward" Maybe he thinks Ward will play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pej1956 Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Either way, I think a tweak or change is necessary at this time of the season. Personally I'd rest Chris Martin and play Bamford up front. He's been brilliant so far, but we are relying too heavily on him. I'd also play Russell in front of Wardy or Dawkins. I don't think that'll happen though. I think he'll give Bamford a start wide in place of Dawkins and leave Johnny on the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
