Hoggy Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Hi new poster here. I find it quite odd how players like Bueno and Cywka to some extent are deemed to be too lightweight for this division by our manager yet they are persisting with young Tom Carroll. Anyone else think the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else think the same? Yes NC doesn't seem to like the flair players but he seems to play Carroll who doesn't seem to be good at anything apart from the odd great pass. Is he being played because he is from Spurs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoggy Posted February 26, 2012 Author Share Posted February 26, 2012 There are the rumours that spurs pay his wages if he plays full games which if true is great for spurs and Carroll. It just begs the question why would we agree to this, not really fair in the the likes of Bailey who was doing ok! NC said it was pointless bringing in loans if they don't improve the team and whilst I think Carroll has potential to be a good player in 3 or 4 years time right now Bailey is more usefull to us at this time. And people say Bueno was too lightweight lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry should of been more clearer Just start a thread saying you don't like Clough and don't bother with the subtext. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randombc Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 I heard a rumour on Thursday, that he's got to play as art of the contract, and if he doesn't play a majority of the matches then he'd be recalled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoggy Posted February 26, 2012 Author Share Posted February 26, 2012 Yeah sorry that properly is what I should have done but my point is valid i feel its just another NC decision that is holding the team back and it's frustrating and yes i go to the games 16 yr season ticket holder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoggy Posted February 26, 2012 Author Share Posted February 26, 2012 Why sign him if that's the case he's no better than what we have. Just another decision that doesn't benefit the club what do ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he being played because he is from Spurs I wouldn't say that Clough likes flair players, i think that's what we're often lacking. He just tends to like work horses.

blackNwhites Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 We have the 2nd youngest squad in the league, might explain why they seem lightweight. Leicester did look a lot more athletic the other day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackNwhites Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Think it was Doncaster, not sure though. Just remember Craig Short mentioning it. Might be Peterborough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alph Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 I think he's good. Lightweight? Certainly!! Bryson couldnt push over a blade of grass and Hendrick and Bailey couldn't push anyone stronger than Bryson. I've seen more aggression on an episode of songs of praise. Carroll might be the weakest of a weak bunch, but he's brave enough to receive the ball. He works hard to find space. If our team were to achieve 50% possession he'd look better for it. What makes him look bad, and the rest of them, is there's no one in there to inspire them. To get them with their chests out and chins up. I think they're all ok individually, but together the whole lot of them make Pearson and Savage look like Keane and Vieira. Our balance is poor. I was surprised Spurs thought of us as a passing/possession team (what they wanted to loan him to). From memory we haven't controlled a midfield battle for sustained period.
