His yellow cards are awful though, probably cost us the playoffs. It's true to say that we have got worse PPG without Crooks in the team than we have with him in it, more-so even under Wilder I think. But it's not by a huge amount and with such a small sample size so widespread throughout the season... it's not like the team was reliant on him to pick up points basically. I'm also not sure we can really point the finger at an otherwise ever-present, top-scoring midfielder at being the reason we lost out on the playoffs. Link to post Share on other sites

Bamba’s performance v Bournemouth (A) was heroic. What were you expecting it was his second game in 48hrs or something daft like that. He's 37 and shouldn't be played like that. I blame wilder for that performance more than Bamba he looked really leggy after good performance against bmuff 1 Link to post Share on other sites

He's said when he leaves Watford he wants to do a year in the MLS then turn out for Hashtag United in non league, no joke. Akinfenwa has also talked about playing for Hashtag too after retiring.

The fact remains though, that he was one of our most effective players this season and his disciplinary record cost us at the most crucial time, so he's not blameless in that. Either way, I didn't fancy our chances of winning the playoffs, and hopefully the slower build of another Championship season will be better for us long term. Link to post Share on other sites

I said all along that bamba couldn't playe 3 games in a week so wasnt a smart acquisition to make unless we signed another CB who we knew could play week in week out should we get a bad injury. We didn't, we did and bamba tried but he wasn't up to it. I like him, and I think he had a couple of excellent games for us, but I still don't think it was a good signing in the context of the squad. Not his fault, but still another sign of our failure in the transfer market last 2 windows. Link to post Share on other sites

You make a lot of sense here but I'd still like to be the first person to coin 'Ken Barlow' for when he starts dropping clangers. Link to post Share on other sites

Guffie 999 Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Would like to see us make a move for Kane Wilson. Just got promoted with Forest Green. Young wing back, plenty of assists and a constant threat. Free agent aswell. Be nice competition for Jones Link to post Share on other sites
