And would be an important player for us next season if we go down. He is a shadow of the player Semedo was at that level. If we want to be successful we need better. He should be no more than a squad player at that level, never mind this level but as things stand he deserves his place in the current team.

For all his 'fitness, reliability and effort' his physicality is poor- he's far too easily knocked off the ball and players drift past him at times as though he's standing still. His timing is also poor resulting in many a clumsy challenge and unnecessary free kick. I think if that was all true he wouldn't even be a professional footballer because he offers very little on the ball. 12 minutes ago, hirstyboywonder said: He is a shadow of the player Semedo was at that level.

We don't know what he will be like yet at that level because he hasn't played there yet?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he's in the side I feel as though we're playing with a man short. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

33 Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 (edited) Never seen anything in him and frankly wonder how he gets on the pitch. That said he does and if Bannan played further forward maybe it would help. On the shybo front I can put up with people who aren't that great if they at least put effort in which Joey seems to do. Can't say same for likes of Harris, Reach and Co. One useless and lazy, the other nesh and too often lazy. My wheelie bin could do a better job than quite a few of the so and sos. .

Travolski Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 People that call pelupessy bad just cant possibly watch the game with impartiality. Hes a steady championship squad filler, hes allways available, he gives 100%, allways pointing and shouting. Yeah he might not be the best dm in the world but he isnt 7th on our problem list with this squad. I put it down to most folk miss understanding his job on the pitch, only thing I can think is the reason. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pazowl55 Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 We pick up more points when Pelupessy and Rhodes are in the team. A midfielder who knows the midfield role and a striker who knows the striker role. Square pegs and all that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but can you organise a midfield so we pick up points in important football matches, that's the real question.? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shandypants Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 I thought Pelupessy had a great game today. He did everything you'd want him to do as a midfield ball winner. People should keep in mind that he's not going to pass the ball like Bannan or run his nuts off up and down the pitch but Pelupessy will do for me as that player that sits in the middle and breaks up the opposition play. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His strengths/weaknesses have been done to death but for the most part, imo, he does little but shadow BB, leaving us with what is, in effect, a physically very frail, one man, CM.
