My reasons are perfectly clear and it is purely down to the fact that one of our playmakers is not making enough chances for others or scoring himself - or looking like scoring (contrary to what someone else said). I've praised him for all sorts of things that he does well, but we need goals and/or more players making chances for others. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And as I keep pointing out but you keep ignoring- he is making chances for others. He has the second most key passes in our team (behind Emi, who you also dropped) and the third highest per 90 minutes. It is just hugely contradictory to say 'we're not creating enough chances' then suggest an XI including Trybull, Rupp and Drmic all of whom are significantly less creative and less capable of scoring goals than Cantwell has proven to be.

They are just stats over the whole season and do not show the trend in recent matches. And regards Trybull, Drmic and Rupp, I take it you didn't go to the Burnley away cup game.......yeah, I know, its not the league....but it is a fallacy to think other players couldn't do a good job.

Stiepermann had enough chances at this level. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You never mention it... Ya da ya da. I think that match was hugely relevant to our season and showed the quality of the squad - and without most of the youngsters - and farkeball was still very clearly working. My opinion is that one or two of the youngsters are now showing signs of mental tiredness after their huge rise and all the hype this season and maybe it is right that others come in. Its just an opinion - oh and Duda only played about 10 minutes of that match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
