StudentOwl Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 7 minutes ago, Owls-Fan said: The decision to release a striker and not have the funds, plan or capability to replace him with someone of equal ability. #sheffieldwednesday This is definitely the point. Whether you liked him or not, being objective, you know if Nuhiu plays a full season of Championship footie he scores a certain number of goals. Evidence for that can be seen is the Gray era. Now some people will think that's enough, some will think we need more from a striker. Both opinions are fine. But I'm sure we can all agree that if the replacement for Nuhiu scores fewer goals than Nuhiu does, it wasn't worth letting him go. Patterson and Marriot. Nuhiu is better than both. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paterson has 6 goals this season already. Nuhiu averaged less than that in better teams. I don’t rate either of them and both can’t play the lone striker role. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzuki_San Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 At the end of Luhukay's first season, he was on . In the last 16 games, he scored 10 and assisted 4. We finished with 58 points, 16 above the bottom 3. Without him, we might have flirting with relgation... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hasthagotanycheese Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 So far this season he has scored precisely zero goals in 17 appearances in the Cypriot League. Why this strange obsession with a none goal scoring centre forward? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our current strikers are awful. Minimum requirement for a CF is that they can find the onion bag between 15-20 times per season. I just dont get this strange longing for an ex player who didnt meet this criteria at all in his 6 seasons with us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Farrell Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 I know desperation is setting in, but he can't even make the starting line up for the Red Lion Ayia Napa. I get he was a lovely bloke, but get a grip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIG D Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Interesting also that Bannan has more/as many assists as any other 2 players put together BUT he’s the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan Rhodes is the highest goal to shot converter at the club One in three shots goes in the net All we have to do each game is get him three shots on goal 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animis Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 39 minutes ago, Emilianenko said: Averaged 5.5 goals a season in n Championship in much better teams than what we have now but is the answer. Paterson's managed to get 6 but no way offers what Nuhiu offered. Having said that we shouldn't even be having a discussion about either of them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bulgaria Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Actually brought a tear to my eye. Loved him. If I was down, upset or needed a shoulder.... Atty would be the one I would go to. I bet a cuddle from Atty would make things ok again. That Preston goal... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 The bigger mistake was not replacing him with better, shouldn’t have been hard, then again we didn’t replace Fletcher or FF with players anywhere near their standard. We have now got crap like Paterson instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
