It's normal to slate Nuhiu because he's rubbish......I'd quite happily acknowledge his talents and have asked several times for his lovers to point out out the talents he has that you'd want from a half decent forward Pace Finishing Heading Desire that sort of thing.....happy to be educated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcmigo Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 He is what he is. There is is no point having 6 forward players who are all the same. Nuhiu fills a place in the squad for a big forward if we want to play more direct football. Could we get a better player to do that role ? Possibly. But we need to focus our spending under ffp. If we are a long ball and direct team, splash out on a big fella as they will be starting most weeks. If we are going to be a tip tappy team who only lump it when losing , then nuhiu does the job fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Farrell Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 He'll always divide opinion due to not being very good. He's playing to the maximum of his ability though. Unlike half the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will never acknowledge anything good about Nuhiu - you’ll even go to the extent of stating he’s not good at the things he actually is good at. The thing I love at the moment Ian is that you and the other Nuhiu haters can’t bear the fact that Nuhiu is playing that well that getting picked to play.

To the point where i couldn't get frustrated at him anymore I genuinely sat there is fits of laughter at how poor he was.

Some of them still maintain that May was unjustly treated when he was here, shouldn’t have been sold to Preston and that he was better than Nuhiu.

Rough translation of your first paragraph "once someone points out the obvious I can't find a response so I'll fall behind the "I'm not embarking on conversation with you" defence although you then proceed to not only carry on said conversation but start a new paragraph about it as well.....make your mind up as for that next paragraph, would it be the fact that Nuhiu is playing "that well" that is the reason we are picking up so many points and hurtling headlong towards a play off place?

Just a lack of strikers instinct or ability. You must admit though Ian, he's not even in the top 10 worst players this season. Most of the squad have had a nightmare.

There's no surprise every striker here has enjoyed playing alongside him, he's a handful but as you say there are days you watch him and wonder how he's made it this far.

I'm sorry but you saying what you said only makes people question your knowledge about football... sorry I'd argue with that indictment (abysmal) but its past and been done to death. What matters is the now and I think that currently he is going well and more importantly, given our appalling injury situation, it has become crucial that he continues in this vein and stays fit. It's subjective and I've always said that it's not so much the criticisms of him specifically but the distorted levels which have been OTT in my opinion. I know that this works both ways too; it's as if balanced opinion holds no sway on here only extremes of good or bad. It's telling that recently his hard core critics have laid relatively low (odd exceptions of course) which is testament to his recent contributions. It is inevitable unfortunately (IMO) that some will seek to downplay his contributions whilst conversely magnifying his mistakes or shortcomings. No doubt the converse applies too. IMO there is a middle ground where the real truth is to be found. It's manifest now that he's an important player for us at the moment. He might even be a handy squad player next season even.
