Well lets face it he's not very good is he?Apparently rather arrogant by all accounts as well.A player who should be playing at a lower level methinks.We need some better players, but, everybody knew that anyway!No Hart on the right and not giving Frutos who is a better player than Cox (if you remember his peformances in the Championship) a regular place on the left.I sure hope Wilkins knows what he's doing!

When he went to Aldershot on loan they played him on the right wing.

I think, sadly, that's the only place he can actually be effective for us.

Give him an extended run there and see what he does.

Oh and Wilkins. The diamond DOESNT WORK.

Who told you he was arrogant. From what I have heard a lot of it is bravado because he is actually lacking in confidence.

seems to me that Wilkins has run out of ideas in how to play Robinson. Not a forward at this level, didn't excel in the diamond and not really a succes on the right.

He did'nt strike me as arrogant when I met him at the sponsorship dinner last week, Just a young lad who needs a goal to boost his confidence again.

Always seemed polite and nice enough whenever I have seen him.

His play with Cox is very good as they appear to know exactly where each other is. Our problem is Savage who wanders all over the park trying to beat 10 men with attrocious ball control.

If we had a Dele Adebola/Dion Dublin type player who would win the ball, in the danger area, and knock it down to Robinson as a support striker all would be well. Like Toshack did for Keegan.

its a phase that players go through i spose. he hasnt scored in a while and he needs to make himself present on the pitch, instead of bottling every tackle he needs to get stuck in :angry:

Strange that he was top scorer at the middle of the season. Perhaps he just caught crapitus eh?

He'll bounce back and show fans what he's capable of.

Likewise.

Seemed like a perfectly nice, friendly person to me, without a hint of arrogance.
