Never good enough to be a European starter. Miles out his depth. Actually lays bare how bad our recruitment is that we’ve still not filled the RW slot. Scored a just alright goal today which essentially ended the game. You really are the master of understatement mate. Cheer up ffs! Enjoy the moment. It has been a long time coming.

Bar the last couple games I've been very skeptical. When you look at the squad players a the tarriers bring on they make a difference. We should aim for that from squad players and too often I don't think he has done that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s when he has played well, I’d say. When on from the start - not so much. J-Maestro 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The kind of excellent goal we scored loads of when under pressure during 9 in a row. Regarding he RW slot it won’t be filled with a top class player before Tav leaves. It will never be a priority before then. J-Maestro 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He scored a good goal, but so did Bert Konterman - didn’t make him a good player. If you’re happy with him starting 25+ games next season, then we’ll just have to agree to disagree. Delighted he scored btw. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally sprinted from his own box, controlled a terrible pass and a cracking placed goal. Was probably better than Jack’s. left winger 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

five stars 1,621 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 A good squad player, particularly useful as a sub. I hope he can continue to develop. J-Maestro 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeoGeo7 10,495 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 With the way lundstram and Bassey have improved under Gio and his coaching team I think a full pre-season for Wright will really help him, plus that goal will give him loads of confidence. He’ll be a good squad player but we need better than him, and Diallo for that matter, on the right wing. J-Maestro and Rowley Birkin 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

goaaaal 946 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Love it when he's on form like today a very intelligent player with his runs and isn't afraid to take that ball in the right direction. five stars 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

siamthedanger 2,855 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 To be honest I’m disappointed with his development so far, thought we would get a lot better from him this season. Can’t fault him the day though, great finish. graeme_4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m struggling to find stats for starts this season, but Balogun has had 37 appearances, Sakala 50, Arfield 50, Wright 37, Roofe 36. He’s not good enough to be involved that regularly. Anyway, I’m away to keep celebrating rather than moaning. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supersonic 4,654 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Gio is getting things out of players I didn't personally expect him to. Wright is one of them and he's got to be absolutely chuffed with himself given the parts he's played in not only getting us to a Europa league final, but he's won himself a scottish cup now as well.

Monkey Butler 23,019 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Still looks too lightweight despite the fact he's apparently been trying to bulk up and work on his strength. Great goal today but he's never a first team player. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
