Yes but to sacifice an Emi or a Cantwell in the Championship there would be uproar. He's ok to bring on when you are defending a lead, otherwise he offers nothing.

Hank shoots Skyler 2,094 Posted July 14, 2020 Just now, sonyc said: Not seen Rupp have one pass made? And Adam Idah has done more on 5 minutes than Drmic all game. Movement, strength, commitment. Have to agree, although I stuck up for Drmic for only being a bit less **** than Pukki the past few games, Idah easily looks the livelier of the three strikers. Not sure why he hasn’t been given a start.  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With a bit more time to bed in and an easier division to play in, I'm confident he'll be a useful squad player next season. Give the lad the benefit of the doubt in the current scenario, because the entire team is utterly bereft. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Canary Wundaboy 1,358 Posted July 14, 2020 Rupp deserves no defence. Every attack that goes though him immediately breaks down. Gives the ball away when we’re going forwards, loses it when we’re trying to hold it up. No positives whatsoever in his performance today. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harry53 207 Posted July 14, 2020 Yet another game using subs too late. Rupp and Drmic given another opportunity to prove to us they have some skills. Sadly they don't and they should have been removed after 45. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope this is true but it seems rather more hopeful with Rupp than it would’ve been with Vrancic. Vrancic showed at least a few glimpses on arrival - not sure I’ve seen any from Rupp? He did hit a half volley v Man United in the cup pretty well but it got blocked unfortunately... I’m all out..

sonyc 5,489 Posted July 14, 2020 (edited) Really want to see Idah and Martin getting game time now. Glad if Drmic or Rupp don't play again (this season or next frankly). Just want to see the youngsters in their positions. Edited July 14, 2020 by sonyc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dr Greenthumb 746 Posted July 14, 2020 Farke set up for 0-0 and still couldn’t do it! Interested to know why our two strikers are back defending an attack in our box when we are chasing a game! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then we can discount anything you say as if you'd watched vrancic when he first arrived you'd have seen he's slow but oozes quality in the pass.  It's not hard, you just watch. Seems a lot on here don't really watch the game they bang on about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
