Murphy: at least can run at players well, with the ball, and works hard defensively (plus has a decent shot on him).

Skalak: can at least put in a decent ball, occasionally.

Izquierdo is so..... absent.

Knocky and March are simply off form and we've stuck with them both for a while now. People will say Murphy and Skalak aren't good enough but like Knocky and March they had plenty of good games in the Championship, so what gives?

....and Baldrick. Don't forget Baldrick as an attacking threat. What gives?

Leave Jose alone. He needs more game time not being a sub one week and subbed the next.

Thank the Lord you’re not the manager. Terrible assessment of player quality

How soon is now?
I watched Skalak against Barnet and he was shocking, if that's what he currently has to offer then his first team Albion career is over at this level. Murphy can beat a player, but doesn't offer much more and jumps out of so many tackles. Both will easily find new clubs, but are not PL players

Both will be offered out in January window.
Rangers want Murphy.
Skalák to anyone who will take.
Neither have a future here.

Because March and Knocky are really, really poor currently?

We can go round in circles here ???
Skalak and Murphy would definitely not be a better option, I didn't think March was too bad yesterday, especially in the first half.
I wouldn't say either player is really, really poor TBF.

Don't rate Skalak, not good enough in open play. I am surprised Murphy has dropped out of the picture, more than good enough to do a job off the bench.

Anyone suggesting Skalak should be anywhere near the first team squad bar the Palace Cup reserve match needs putting out of their misery in a quiet corner.

I would rather have Murphy or Baldock on the bench than Brown. They are our players and will give 100% given the chance.
