It's about playing to the guys strengths which are winning the ball in the air, running about loads and decent passing. I think in a 442 we could get the best out of him but he's not a finisher, never will be. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â He's just well out of his depth and I also can't believe the management thought it would be a great idea to spunk the transfer budget on a hold up player when our finishing has been rank since the first game of the championship last season.

It's not the lads fault either tbh. I just can't see the love in with him and to change my mind he'd have to get 10 goals between now and the end of the season. It's obvious the guy can hit a ball but for whatever reason he tries his luck from distance instead of laces through it in the box Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSashWithWindass 5 Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 I've been willing him on so much but it just doesn't look like it will happen for him.  For instance on Wednesday night he had the perfect opportunity to burst the net and instead hits the post. He never seems to be in the right place in the box always at the edge watching the move happen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa6995 3,684 Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 Its not so much his ginger hair its his freckles that are an abomination, perhaps a wee bit of foundation might make him score more goals. ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sconer 29 Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 I said ten games into the season he's not good enough, not got good movement, positional sense or eye for goal and has a touch like a donkey but everyone shot me down. He's one of the worst signings in our history in terms of value for return. Fact! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lloyd72 Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 He's a lot like Nicky Clark imo, I liked Clark because he would run himself into the ground but he wasn't good enough and neither is Garner. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrLaudrup 4,704 Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 For me one of Warburton's worst signings. He was bought to score goals which he doesn't do. He didn't do it for Preston either. To say he works hard is a poor excuse from supporters accustomed to a poorer team over the last few years. Effort is the least we should expect from any of our players. Sebo tried too...he isn't a legendary striker either. I'm not saying he's the answer but I'm sure someone like Ryan Hardie might have offered a similar goals return without us having to spend 1.8million. He should be close to top of the scoring charts for that outlay. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
