I think Afobe is our best finisher and he has got decent pace as well, but I think he needs to play with a target man up front. As it is now he gets way too isolated. With the personell we have at our disposal right now I think only Crouch has the ability to be this target man. If Crouch plays we should also find a place for Charlie as he has the best long pass in him. Yesterday was horrible as we waited with passing the ball forward till they had 11 players behind the ball, and we did this every f------- time too! Very predictable and also very boring! ..................Butland................. Edwards.....Shawcross...Indi......Pieters ............Woods........Adam............. Ince..............Afobe...........Etebo .................Crouch.................. A lot of changes there and certainly a couple of controversial decisions to be made, but worth a try? If Shawcross needed a break to see that nobody is too good for some time on the subs bench, I certainly feel Allen needs this reminder too! The same goes for Martina, and McClean who has been utter rubbish since his return after injury.

We needed Bojan right behind him however it looks clear to me that Rowett has told Bojan that to start him, he needs contributions across the pitch and that's why we saw him dropping deeper.
Shame really as if that is the case, that expectation alone stifles 2 players.

Ran his bollocks off today and very good at getting into the channels for balls over the top. Feel sorry for him when he’s left with no support as I think he would be so much more effective with someone to work with.

Should play a front 4 of Berahino uptop, Bojan as number 10 with Afobe on the left and Ince on the right

As good as Butland was today the save their keeper made from Afobe was just as good.

Really really poor again. Along with ince, just not quite good enough.
We will need to start again and sign some pace and power in attack in January

I really don't see the point of Afobe 8 games without a goal. Great service from Edwards tonight that any centre forwRd would have loved. Time to give Berahino a go I think and if you're using Crouch get him on quicker. We always look livelier when he's on.

Camel, as previously advised.
Mind you, the formation is shite.

Didn’t look like getting on the end of anything much tonight. Not the player I was expecting.

Think we dropped a bollock signing him tbh, a mobile target man would make much More sense as a lone striker because Berahino & ince could feed off that type of player holding it up, both would score more goals because the ball would stick allowing them to get in and around.
Paul Onuachu is the man to buy for us.

Hugill did more as a lone front man than Afobe today. Would've hooked him for Bojan at half time and played Saido through the middle.

Afobe is a victim of a shit manager but today's effort from him was unforgivable.
Utter fucking lazy shit.

I thought he'd be decent but he's absolutely shit. Might as well stick diouf up front, or bojan

A prolific striker needs feeding Wants feeding some red meat so he can hold the ball up and mix it up. Good player in his own right but the wrong player for what we are trying to do imo

Has no interest in busting a gut to get on the end of crosses, just stands still in the box wanting the perfect ball put right on his head.
Also for a relatively big man, he’s weak as piss.
Time to give Campbell a run of games.
