Is he really as bad as his last few games or are we just not playing to his strengths? What are his strengths come to that? Gouranga.

God knows how he completed 90 minutes tonight. Truly awful performance. But then again The cabbage McLean was even worse.

We aren't creating anything though. Sub him off for whoever you want and it will be rinse-repeat.
Our shots on target record over the last three games is disgusting:
2 at Norwich 3 at home to Birmingham 4 at Sheff United

He won headers, he could hold the ball up, but was never a prolific goal scorer. His contribution for the team and not at least Fuller was immense!

Mama was streets ahead of anything Afobe has contributed.

I thought he was garbage tonight, in fact he’s generally been garbage for most of the season. Probably the biggest in a long line of disappointments.

Did Rowett really prefer him to Gayle?

Perhaps tactical, perhaps just didn't click. But Berahino was almost a CAM. To be clear I'm on about a Crouch Defoe style partnership. Tonight He was tasked with holding the ball up and knocking it down - he needs to be the bloke the ball goes to after someone else pulls that ball out of the air*

He is Diouf with a shaved head. If we had anyone at all to play on the left I’d play Saido up top

Please don't do Mama Sidibe the disservice of being compared to Afobe.
One gave his all despite his limitations and played his part in our history, putting his body on the line for us.
The other has done absolutely fuck all.

He needs a strike partner right along side him, the bloke look lost on his own up there tonight!! Not sure where berinho was told to play tonight but he certainly wasn’t playing up top !

Plays isolated by 20 yards in most matches. Can't believe the manager is so dimwitted to so this so far into a season.

He's a camel, as previously advised. Rowett's buys becoming more and more questionable.
Total shit show.
Coates out.

Lumping it up to him isn't his game, may as well start Crouch if thats all we're going to do, we've created zero chances for him in the last two games.

Camels are intelligent , useful, durable animals which have saved many a life and indeed fought in many conflicts your doing them a considerable disservice . Cant agree on Mr Coates though just need to focus on real root and branch reform starting with those who failed to deliver it in the summer and all their choices

Afobe was a proven success at this level and predicted to get 15-20 goals. He now looks completely lost and uninterested....you have to ask why he ha suddenly become shit?

I refuse to criticise him when our manager isolates him the way he does, we clearly don't play to his strengths, wolves did!
