He's a striker,play him up front
Piroe, the world's biggest and chunkiest number 10 lol. Looks well out of position there, would like to see him further up with Bamford dropping back to link up play. I like Piroe but he's starting to look like a bit of poor signing. 12 million for a square peg who I'm not sure will cut in the prem.
Sorry he's not awful, he's feckin awful, the worst player I seen at our club for a long time, cannot control a ball, cannot pass a ball. Absolute dogsh!te.
Do you rate him Lowfield? Forget his history, tell me what you think of him now. Every player has his best before date.

He cannot play as a striker, up front, if he ever had that touch he's lost it.

Joseph plays in that position and makes a difference. He's sharper, brighter and more dynamic brings Firpo on the left more into the game because he attacks the box, Piroe cannot do that because he is too slow and doesn't have that first touch.

Absolutely ridiculous statement. Worse than players last season?
He was a very useful player first half of the season, goal every other game, he’s a good finisher.
He hasn’t looked great this calendar year but I’d bet on him scoring the winner between now and end of the season. If we go up, his 11 goals will have been very useful.

Does barely anything when he's on the pitch and 11 goals doesn't justify the fee paid, can hardly control the ball. Look at the local press, consistently the lowest rated player in the squad.
Has hardly started this year but in 24 matches has scored three goals (Swansea, Preston and Ipswich) one of which was a penalty.
Looks disinterested at best most of the time, compare his body language with Joseph's or Bamford's.

Are you saying that you have formed no emotional attachment to Piroe?
Presumably not Joseph or Cooper.
This attack on Piroe just goes to show how little people know, absolutely ridiculous, not played much recently,played out of position and still third highest scorer

Am not against him, think he’s decent.
But anyone who thinks he should play as a number nine, Know absolutely FOOK ALL ABOUT FOOTBALL.
It aint football manager 🤦🤦🤦
Think you should stick to football manager mate,got out of league 2 yet?
No need pal, watch football, and understand football changed over last 20 years.
He aint and never will be a number nine.
You obviously dont 👍

The other issue of course with Piroe is that he is nowhere near good enough to play at the level up.
We bought him, presumably, to get us out of this league.
If we go up, then what?
Contracted until 2027, what do we do with a striker who Farke has already, pretty much called time on.

Self-flagellation … (makes you go blind so I’m told … ).
Anyhoo... I've mentioned a couple of times how in Bielsa's first season the wheels fell off, I know it's not something any of us will ever forget and it still stings 5 years later but even so it's worth remembering that we went 2nd and 3 points clear of the Blades after we beat Shef Wed with just 4 games remaining and I even remember chicken counting posts about which EPL grounds the following season fans were most looking forward to visiting.
We were hot favourites to get the job done but then we somehow lost at home to Wigan, another Bamford missed penalty and them a man down... incredible and then we lost away at Brentford 2 nil being denied a stonewall penalty before they opened the scoring just before the break and in no time at all Shef Utd jumped ahead of us and clinched automatic promotion after we could only draw at home to Villa and that legendary sporting Bielsa moment ordering his players to let Villa equalise which Pontus probably helped seal his exit by trying to ignore his gaffer's instructions.
The point being once bitten and all that there is no way I'm counting any chickens because as we all know from bitter experience how this game can kick you in the guts and with 7 games to go there is still a massive load of work for Farke to get his troops assured of at least 2nd spot so I'm just taking it one game at a time and no taking any opponent for granted and hopefully as long as we don't have another Wigan type nightmare and the players stick to their usual form, especially being tight defensively, I'm hoping by the time we face Boro away or immediately after, it will be mathematically impossible for us not to be automatically promoted but if we have to wait until our final game of the season then so be it.
