He’s far from the player he was before his injury in-fact he’s no where near the level that he was. He struggles to run never mind anything else. Would explain a lot.

His goal to minutes ratio for Norwich last season was as good as any of our strikers. Give the bloke a chance now we have 2 proper wingers and are playing to what should be to his benefit. He was terrible Saturday though and I think his time might be up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes we got rid of Hooper( arguably the best one) because his contract was up and then sold Joao, someone who I suspect we wanted to keep. We still have 5 so there’s no way we could bring one more in. There will be massive change in this area next summer with Fletcher, Forestieri, Nuhiu and Winnall all out of contract. At least 3 of those 4 are likely to leave. Knowing our luck, Nuihu will be the one not to leave! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been here far too long it's time to ship him out. He's only good spell was under Jos where he couldn't stop scoring for a certain period but apart from that has never been a goalscorer and has never been much of a threat The more I think about it the more I think we made a mistake releasing Hooper. He would thrive in our current side and would guarentee goals in this set up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hoping we sell Winnall and possibly Nando in January so we can get one in. Then let Nuhiu go in the summer and re-sign Fletcher hopefully on less money. Then we can look to get Rhodes out next summer too and maybe get two new strikers in. Interesting times ahead in this department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would thrive in our current side and would guarentee goals in this set up I see your point about Hooper but kind of disagree. He isn’t great at playing as a single striker. The 4-3-3 system means there is no number 10 which means Hooper would have struggled and been benched just like Nando has been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether people think he's better or not, Nuihu, JR and Winnall are not up to the standard required. Like I said it's a pity no club wanted these players in the summer; it would have been nice to move them on and get 1/2 loan strikers in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah in my opinion not his type of game really, I was thinking Nuhiu might come on, but any sub is a gamble and could have worked out if Rhodes glanced a header in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Jack the Hat Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 I thought winnallwould fit into our style of play and was looking forward to him coming on, but he was terrible. He was slow and looked knackered the moment he came on. The difference between him and fletcher was immeasurable. He really was bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hooper would spoil the team ethic in this current set up No real position for him, with the way he plays and distinct lack of pace and overall work rate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWEDFM Posted August 21, 2019 Author Share Posted August 21, 2019 So now we know why he's been left out recently and not included in the 18 Could it be down to a lack of match fitness or is there no way back for him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looked totally unfit last night, no energy or willingness to put himself about and looked like he was running through deep soft sand. If he was the best option from the bench then just hope Fletch stays fit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
