Cantwell needs to play in Stiepermanns position longer term but he’s not effective on the left. To answer your question on Cantwell in the OP. Games started: 12 Won: 8 Drawn: 3 Lost: 1 Win ratio: 67% Win or draw ratio: 92% Games not in starting team: 11 Won: 6 Drawn: 2 Lost: 3 Win ratio: 55% Win or draw ratio: 73% So looks like the results show the exact opposite of what you wanted them too! But I think we all recognise how much stronger we look in attack with Buendia / Cantwell / Pukki all interlinking and on the same wavelength... Well at least most of us do anyway 😆 Source: https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/todd-cantwell/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/332341/saison/2020/wettbewerb/GB2/verein/1123 Edited January 3, 2021 by Hank shoots Skyler 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But Dowell has hardly pulled up trees has he, and that's who I'd guess he's in competition with. Edited January 3, 2021 by TeemuVanBasten Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,870 Posted January 3, 2021 Look... We lose everytime he plays. He endlessly wastes possession and gives the ball away. He's weak in the tackle, doesn't run about after he wastes the ball and he writes his own stats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cantwell needs to play in Stiepermanns position longer term but he’s not effective on the left. If the stats show that we win more points when we've played a quick winger on the left improving the balance of the team, then once one of the wingers is back from injury Cantwell can be moved inside.

andrew norwichcity 8 Posted January 4, 2021 I saw people say he had a bad game and we should have scored more but I think his chances weren't as easy as people seem to think. He had a cracking game, more disappointing those chances just about got away from him for me. He absolutely turned their midfield 2 or 3 times and put in a shift. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That’s all I’m saying. He has lots more to give and has the ability and he is the key to us pasting teams going forward. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dj11 402 Posted January 4, 2021 Cantwell and Buendia are our 2 most skilful players and try to beat players, thereby creating space for others. There is risk attached if they lose the ball, but more often than they succeed. We are very lucky to have such talent in the team, and I so enjoy their creativity. It will be a sad day when Cantwell or Buendia leave, and we will be poorer for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lake district canary 4,778 Posted January 4, 2021 20 hours ago, Jersey Canary said: I’m not saying he’s not going to be an excellent player but he reminds me to a certain degree (not in style of play but the affect on the team) of Snoddy. Great player but constantly slowed the team by too much dribbling and ponderous play. If he. An be more one touch and a bit more clinical then we could have one hell of a player on our hands but at present I feel he gives the ball away far too much and puts his foot on the ball too much and his finishing is poor. Todd is prone to slowing down the game sometimes, but not always, but is anyway far less predictable than Snoddy, making him potentially way more effective. Some of the things he does makes him unplayable at times and the fact he didn't get his shot away when running through on goal was partly because he was intent on getting the ball on his right foot. His fluffed shot from Pukki's pass was also because he wanted to use his right foot when using his left foot should have been the natural finish. I'm sure he can shoot with his left foot, but could do with being a bit more confident at using it. We know he can finish, so that isn't the issue and I don't think he is poor at that - as always it's about choices and as he progresses he will more and more make the right decisions. Starting to become a top influence on the pitch - but he has a way to go to become the player he could be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

repman 738 Posted January 4, 2021 I think the team does lack a bit of threat in behind when both Todd and Emi play in those wide positions, Emi has done very well in this area so far this year, but not something that comes naturally to him. It also doesn't help that Sorensen isn't too comfortable charging down the left wing every time we go forward. I would like to see Todd given a go in behind the striker when Onel/Placheta return, it seems like that should be his eventual position anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
