I still remember now,another Arsenal loanee from a a few years ago. It was Paul Dickov and the amount of effort from him was terrific .

Polar opposite which is why Dickov had a decent career

Wilson has some ability, he's very lightweight and if he strengthens physically has a slight chance at playing at a high level but I see nothing to suggest that Akpom has the qualities to succeed at a higher level than league one

The kid is woefully short of confidence, giving him stick just exacerbates the problem.

If he starts tomorrow we need to get behind him, do our job and be supporters.

Didn't hear any booing in East Upper - relief he was going off but that was it. That said obviously most of the East stand leave after 50 mins apparently!

Honestly, I think he's out of his depth at championship level. I also think Wilson will never make it at the top level but Akpom is considerably worse

Whilst I wasn't at the game, there's no excuse for being on your heels rather than your toes when players are looking to play the ball through. That is absolute basics.

The booing was shameful. From what I've seen he struggles at champ level. This nonsense about not trying is bullshit, it's a tough league, high standard and he's struggling, not going to help booing him

Rubbish. Anyone who has played or watched football knows when a player is not
trying. It's obvious to see.

Unfortunately I did hear booing from where I sat in East Upper... can't see any positive value in booing one of our own players...people pay there money so I guess they have the right (?)..but personally I prefer cheering the team on

GM makes some interesting comments

I remember the endless threads damning poor old CMS - running around like a Duracell
Bunny , clapping the fans and couldn't score for Toffee. Definition of trying mind. Didn't help him on here though.

We need a boo tally tonight.

Everyone could post on here the rough location of the booers then we can total them up, and work out a % age of both the pretendance, and the attendance.

Any who can't see well and need a little extra light can turn on the torches on their Omsung Phines to enable them to more accurately count.

I remember the majority on here saying he did try, he just wasn't very good. I think Akpom tries, I just don't think he understands his position so ends up very lost.

Indeed, add in the amount of empty seats (tut, tut) and early leavers....BINGO.
