A bad game and you shoot him down after being a key player for us. Typical LIW.

Here here. He isnt good enough for Stoke so he isnt good enough wen we get promoted, but until then he'll be ok. We need an injection of class now

I said it before he came, I want promotion, and is not good enough

I thought Pugh was an average player before we resigned him but I do think he gives our formation a good balance, not unhappy he's here now.

-------------------------------------------------
Becchio, Clayton, Lees, McCormack, Snodgrass, White...

Exactly how many more injections do we need?

Whilst I agree he does bring balance to the team

But he doesn't bring 18 goals, tonnes of assist, pace and a threat like the man he has replaced

'We need a Somma' could do with an injection.

A lethal one.

And wasn't Hughes a fairly important part of the squad in our promotion season?

selling our best player was never a good idea,

Hughes was never a important member of the team

Agree with that LIW, Max is hard to replace and Pugh isn't like for like.

Just have to hope Mccormack's goals haven't dried up now.

I also think there is huge pressure on snoddy to create things now and actually makes it easier to play against us

Ps

Is Nunez injured, seems strange since his new deal barely even been on bench

Re Nunez, why is it strange, didnt same happen with Somma last season?

posted on 26/10/11

I was wondering about nuñez earlier,4 years yet not even on the bench.

Pugh has brought more to the table then Howson this season. Amazes me that he doesn't get it ahead of others.

It's unfair to ask Pugh to be a player he's not.

He brings a lot to the team but you can't expect him to provide that spark of creativity you need at times.

You natuarlly look to the left wing for creativity but that doesn't have to be the case.

It's Grayson's responsibility to have more creativity around him or to replace him with it if necessary.

Gradel is 1 of reasons why we WONT get promoted. There are others.

folks pugh has done well leave him alone! Flipsake apart from the boro game when we were down to 9 men, this is the first time we have hit a blank! Amazes me how negative our fans are. We were the better team 2nyt just wasnt our nyt. We made brum look ordinary at times and they are one of the best in the league. Do think that larry has to utilise nunez and sam bit more now to change it about more but we cant have it both ways and we look more solid at the mo. Keep the faith we are doing well, onwards and upwards in beating baardiff. Mot.

You're mentioning Nunez and Pugh in the same mention like they're anything alike.
Pugh plays LB and LM.
Nunez plays Attacking Midfield or striker. He CANNOT play as a winger, so why mention them in the same breath?

Is it not worrying how often we play well but don't win?

Just because Nunez can't play as a winger it doesn't mean he shouldn't be involved.

Grayson stuck to the 4-5-1 last season and is sticking to 4-4-2 this. Why can't he mix things up?

posted on 27/10/11

I said he was a poor signing

Going waste half 1m as well

Madness

You needs to learn to read

Where has anyone said about playing Nunez on the wing

It was just a question asking what's happened to nunez

posted on 27/10/11

How long is going to take some people to accept that Gradel doesn't play for us any more?

He wanted to go he's gone get over it for f s.

Pugh has made us look a hell of a lot more balanced on that side and is helping White no end.

He has 1 bad game and people moan.
(Howson was a million times worse)

So many fickle fans on here its untrue.

LIW
In a discussion about Gradel and Pugh, once Nunez is brought up I use my common sense to assume you're discussing the wing, considering that is the common factor between Gradel and Pugh.
