Was he on the bench yesterday? Seems like hes not in gus good books, although hardly surprising given his attitude when he did start

Pointless aquisition?

Yep. Pointless addition especially when Gus is not prepared to play him in his favoured position (ACM).
Will get even less chances now Vicente is coming back.
Sell him on I say...

Great player and proven at this level.
Needs a manager who believes in him, and plays him regularly in his correct position.
I hope what I've heard is correct .

It certainly appears that his acquisition was/is a mistake for both himself & The Albion. How much did he cost btw?

Overshadowed by Orlandi and Spanish Dave and won't get anywhere near the team now that Vicente is nearly back. Can understand why Gus got him, though. Of the 8 signings in the summer, he is the only disappointment.

Sell him maybe.. But not to palace. We should never sell a player to palace ever! We can't stop free transfers but we can say f*** off if they offer which they'd have to do for Dobbie.

Unfortunately this rumour does seem to be gaining momentum and it will your gain and our lose if true.

Competition for places isn't it. Who are people suggesting we drop for him?

He will come good, just needs time and a chance.

Love to hear why he doesn't fit into 'our style of play'

If Vicente goes in the summer could be more useful. Agree with others here about the right level but just doesn't quite fit in a position we have lots of options of which he's the least useful (doesn't mean he's shit!)

Not if but when for Vicente, he will not be with us next season as either goes to a better club or alternatively no renewal as missing too often.

I think Dobbie is an excellent player but Gus hasn't given him enough chances much like Hoskins.

So how many games should we play with a handicap for while he finds his feet? I don't doubt he could be a good player but now is not the time to bed in players that don't honestly look like they want to bed in.
