Yep, not Championship class. Just has NO pace.
Barrel of Fun
Abort, retry, fail
Very handy player to keep,bit of a liability defending but is useful going forward and knows where the goal is
It helps with the service...

I hope we turn tonights game around but the trend is not what anyone expected given our form between Xmas and Easter. I could understand Gus doing the squad rotation thing especially if we had a list of injuries but when he brings in Lge 1 standard players who have already been exposed in the Championship it is risking all the good work done earlier in the season and cannot be good for morale. Plus it must give the opposition a boost to see players like Vicente not starting.
I know it was a different era but when we came up from the old 3rd Div and were then fighting for promotion from the 2nd I don't recall Mullers not playing the strongest team available and certainly not stick with it following a run of poor performances (not that there were many). In those days everyone knew what our strongest team was - and funnily enough thats what the manager picked, unless there were injuries.
I know that dissenters on here get flamed for not trusting in Gus and do recognise that he knows more about footie than most NSC members put together but at some point it has to be said that he has a stubborn streak that sometimes defies logic.

Can't defend, but creative & pops up with goals. Perhaps retain as a creative right-sided wide sub, but always with a true fullback behind him.

Hey Marxo, I was in Leuven last week for three days and I am there next week and three more times in May, it's a very nice place. Anywhere near you?

According to the BBC we've had more shots on target (7) than they've had shots in total (6)
Perhaps (like the bookmakers odds) he knew the game was up re promotion, so gave a last chance to Dicker, Painter & Co ... and his suspicions that they're not up to it have been confirmed. Assists with the summer ins and outs.
In 1978 and 1979 we had a massive chance of promotion throughout every fixtures of those 2 run ins, with top flight class in the team (Lawrenson, Horton etc).
