Tracksuit Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 No wobbling from me this pre-season. I trust DM knows how to refresh/improve the squad. Best of luck to SB going forward & congratulations on being part of the SWFC hat trick club. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sambo89 Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 I'm guessing he's had a better offer elsewhere then. I doubt Moore would just let him go, especially after all the work that he says had gone into getting him match fit. Could be wrong like, and Moore might not think after all that, he's cutting it, but I personally thought he was coming good alongside Gregory.

bradowl Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 I've not been a big fan of him, you can count his good games on one hand, ineffective in a lot of games, we need a forward that's a bit more physical, there's only Paterson who can knock a defender about. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdan2003 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 I thought he had a decent second half of the season. I do think he should’ve started more games in the final few weeks/month. Heart says I’d like him to say but head says this is for the best, not because I think he’s done anything wrong but because I think overall he struggled with physical L1 defenders. Especially when we needed to go more direct. Good luck to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
areNOTwhatTHEYseem Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Ruthless. Let's hope it's the right call. It took until the early Spring for us to see anything like the kind of forward we needed from Berahino, but he certainly had his moments where all the hard work paid off. Still, Moore knows him better than most and has had a very good look at him now. If he feels we can get bring in players who can perform better in our system on a more consistent basis, then I suppose that should be viewed as a positive thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a great list is it considering it goes back 20 years Ha! david Graham was a total disaster. most of us championship manager players thought he would get 30 in his first season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZicoSterland2 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Far too inconsistent , would seem to go missing for the whole game at times. Need a replacement who works hard and has an impact in most games. Was worth the gamble but average at best would be my view. Kamberi has to go as well another none impact forward who didn't seem to know we're the goal was. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Django Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Strange player Came up with a few goals late in the season but he looks like a passenger 90% of the time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Think tank Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Wouldn’t have minded him staying, but not bothered he is away. Scored a few, but he was so lightweight and anonymous in a lot of games. He didn’t offer enough outside of scoring goals and didn’t score often enough to make it worthwhile him playing every game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pastor Kidneys Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Good. Too inconsistent. Drifts in & out of games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmowl Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 I the equivalent of his 9 full matches (800 mins) after his Spring return to the team he scored 8 and got 3 assists. Pretty impressive. Before the play-off second leg I hoped he’d start alongside Gregory but I can understand why Moore took a gamble on Windass. It didn’t work and we’ll never know if the Gregory-Berahino partnership would have got us over the line. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A E Neuman NYowl Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 For me it's a good sign that players who didn't pull up any trees are being released. We failed in our objective to get promotion last year and to go again with the same but ageing squad would be a mistake. Keep the handful of chore players and hopefully upgrade the ones who didn't cut the mustard. We do need to get players in early so we are not playing catchup halfway through the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twolaptops Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Should have been a stand-out player at this level.............rarely stood-out IMO.......so ta-ta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S72 Owl Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 (edited) Had a decent spell but feel we can get better. I’d look to replace him with someone like Alfie May. Stockton/Ladapo/Oliver Gregory Windass May That gives our forward line a lot more options. Edited May 21, 2022 by S72 Owl 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesteel. Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 I’m not fussed. He looked ok at the end of the season but that was in the context of being poor at first. Then in the play offs up at Sunderland I thought he was again shown to be lacking in either pace or physicality. He did try his best though. No idea what his wage was but you’d think we can build a younger team for the same or less that could at least match what he gave us 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
