It’s not his fault but he should have been replaced also being as short in the middle as we are we should have kept Kieran Lee , let’s hope we get some bodies back for Saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McRightSide Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 If Garry Monk asks me to play on Saturday, if play exactly like JP Loads of effort, loads of ratting around, loads of shouting and pointing, very little quality, poo mesen every time I get the ball and be relieve to make it through the game with no major fizz ups Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No he isn’t, he absolutely kills your game going forward And we basically never win when Dawson and JP start Look it up, it’s like 4 wins in 3 seasons or smth mad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy Crawshaw Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 1 hour ago, hugeowl said: If Monk had started Joey he would have got pelters JP was always going to be the better option to start than Hunt. Hunt is far too lightweight, he'd be OK with a couple of strong midfielders alongside him but to have just him and Bannan in centre midfield we were always going to be bossed there. That was obvious to most who saw the line up before the game. Except for Monk, who probably knew after about 20 mins he'd made an error with his selection. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first half proved you need someone to sit infront of the defence and make tackles. The fact Luongo has the most in the championship also proves this. At this moment intime if Luongo is injured, Pelupessy is our only option. It down to Monk to get the rest of the team right to attack. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigash_swfc Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 This is why, if we want to reap the benefits of our youth. Hunt, Dele Bashiru, Urhoghide, Dawson, Wildsmith, Waldock etc... They need to be playing regular. And to play regular, they need to drop down a level to get 40/50 games under their belt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAWAWUTO17 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Joey isn't as bad as some make out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
full fathom five Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Pelupessy is good at running into the back of their players and giving needless free kicks away. But in fairness Hunt didn't get anywhere near their players to give free kicks away. In summary both are below what's currently required. Hunt does however have time on his side though our current situation won't help his development, he should have been loaned out so we could have brought a more experienced ball winning midfielder in. Another mistake in our summer recruitment. What a mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its either Bannan or Hunt. They should NEVER play together in a team. Far too similar in that they are lightweight and play the same style. FDB or Pelupessy should have started tonight. Oh and Onion Bhaji should never be put in the back 3 ever again!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassetts Allsorts Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 I'm not Pelupessy's biggest fan and questioned his contract renewal, but he looks a much better player this season, even if it is just to give us a different option in midfield. He was needed last night to stop the alamo in the first half. Feel for Hunt as it probably wasn't the best game for him to make his mark, but he did a couple of good things despite looking like a deer caught in the headlights at times.

N0rtherner Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 That sub at half-time should've been avoided by actually starting with Pelupessy yesterday in Luongo's absence... There... can't believe I just said I would've started with Pelupessy, but at least, Monk showed he made a sensible substitution at half time to regain control in midfield... Now I'm biting my nails as to when Luongo returns because we REALLY needed him yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that Pelupessy was one of the few positives tonight. Pelupessy is utter pants. EVERY pass he made was backwards and he hasn’t a creative bone in his foot. Hunt is a very good player but needs good players around him. Baz never gives him the ball but demands it from him even when there’s a better pass on. Really...just watch them in midfield it’s not good. Brentford showed how midfields work well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mighty0wls Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Pelupessy was excellent tonight guarded the space infront of the centre half's brilliantly did nothing silly and we had a good spell as a result Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddyowl Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Adam Reach Joey Pelupessy Jordan Rhodes Three names that are just not good enough, I think whatever happened to Rhodes has now been passed on to Reach, they've both just lost it. In Pelupessy's case, he's never had it to lose. Terrible player IMO. I know we have injuries ATM but a manager has to have a plan for all eventualities, if these 3 are his go to guys then I'm afraid it's going to be an even longer season than we were looking forward too.

full fathom five Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Don't agree regarding Reach, wasn't as effective second half but was our best player in the first half going forward and tracking back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's gone from an attacking, forward thinking player to a nervous, negative player, the amount of times he played the ball backwards when he could have either run with the ball or made a forward pass was astounding, I was probably watching a different match.
