CMS still loves us

[Brighton Mod]

Remember when he arrived, scored the goal against Sunderland in the cup, headed in at the far post, unmarked. he did because someone passed to him!

i like CMS ...i think he has had one of the worst runs of luck and/or general loss of form or playing with players smart enough to play him in ....he is nippy , runs all day and has an eye for goal BUT he is 5 foot 9 so needs to be played on the ground...with our penchant for wingers i honestly can't see why we don't just make a stupid bid for Crouch , he's got 10 inches on CMS and a bit of lanky magic to boot..!

 

[Questions]

He hasn't really shown the form to have warrented a 3 mill figure but I would rather he was here, fit and playing alongside another quality striker. Not going to happen though is it ?

Three strikers all under performed this season,are they all rubbish or is something wrong within the club,never been a happy ship these last four seasons has it

Yep, disappointing that we have only made the Play offs two seasons running, we'd probably been in the finals of The Champion's League if we'd been a happy ship?

He is not nippy. He looks like he is nippy because of his running action but how many times have we seen him outpace a defender (including centre backs who are normally slower than full backs).

Do Peterborough play 2 strikers up front? If so, he will score a few I'm sure. Could do well in the Championship if he had the right strike partner. Sadly, that is unlikely to happen with us, so maybe Posh is his best option for the future.

Yes they do. It's as simple as this folks, for as long as we continue to play with one lone striker CMS will only have a bit part to play at the Albion. He is a poacher, not a target man, he needs a big old style centre forward to play off of, and as we all know, Poyet, Garcia, and now Hyypia don't set their teams up to play that way.

Absolutely. The maddening thing is - Gus did play with two up top in League One but then ditched the formation from the moment we hit the wide open spaces of the Amex.

So unhappy a ship that Bruno, Calderon, Ankergren, Dunk, and it now seems Greer recently signed new deals.

Just shows the misery there must be around the place

Would you be happy if it was? I suspect not and you'd probably post less.

I see that CMS is currently on 99 goals scored for Posh, so would be nice to see him finally bag the ton tonight. However they don't have players like Boyd and Tomlin to supply CMS and McLean plus McCann seems out of favour lately, so the goals might not flow quite so easily for the 'Mac attack' this time around.

CMS might be back there but it's the end of an era with London Road now newly renamed as 'The ABAX' stadium and the replacement for the old Moyes End terrace finally in use.

 

[symyjym]

He is starting tonight with McLean. On Sky Sports 1, might be worth tuning in.

Good luck Craig

 

[Westdene Wonder]

Although I agree, there may be an element of confidence involved maybe? The guy has played a certain way for 3 years at Peterborough, signed for Brighton and was told we'd build the team around him, and then steadfastly refused to adapt in any way to his style of play. Surely that would knock the confidence of a goalscorer, especially as he's not scoring as much as he'd like.

Spot on, I expect him to do well at Peterboro,Good luck to him,he ran himself into the ground waiting for the through ball which no doubt he will now receive.

Peterborough look pony. If this is the norm CMS will struggle for opportunities. Two occasions now he should have been played in with someone choosing to fart arse about with it instead
