Exactly the same players in that one paced, can’t pass and shouldn’t be anywhere near the starting 11

A couple of injuries and we will need Baker.
Problem is coming back from a long-term injury himself means it normally takes quite a few games to get up to speed.
He is still potentially the best midfielder we have based upon his first season with us. Not sure whether AN will give him many chances though to be honest.

I like him. Just might be able to make a real impact if we play him in the position that suits him most.

Fair play to him after being out so long thought he did really well.
Another one that SS might be able to reignite.
I like the fact he’s not afraid of shooting. Hopefully we’ll get the old Baker back that joined us.

Hopefully we’ll get the old Baker back that joined us. Agreed, when he gets sharper he’ll score at least one of those chances he had today. We’ve been crying out for a midfielder that has some threat on goal..

His dead ball delivery was excellent. Worth having on just to keep DJ and Hoever off corner duty

Good performance today. Fair play. I would love the baker back when he first joined.

Hopefully we’ll get the old Baker back that joined us. I've banged the Baker drum for months and months because this is exactly what he offers us. We've never had a midfielder since Adam who's such a threat from.outside the box and actually got the bollocks to actually shoot. We don't have a 20 goal striker so need goals from everywhere.

Decent today with little passing options up top The biggest difference with the new coach is that Baker will get chances to shoot and he 3 today because the whole team if further up the pitch with more options so he will score a few for us.

I don't remember being as impressed with him as I have been already with Burger. My favourite midfield performance was Thompson-Burger-Bae, they just fit. But if baker wants to show up and make it difficult for Schuey to pick the team sheet then that'd be great.

Just need a bit of luck with injuries If we can get everyone fit we have some good choices and a strong bench

Think we will see Baker scoring some screamers again in the next few months with the way Schumacher sets up and encourages shooting from distance. There’s a quality player in there at this level and will be like a new signing again if Schumacher can get him firing again.

Skilled, out of shape it seems and understandable, but always a threat. He just needs games in a rotation. Was good today.

Great to see him back
When he angled for those shots I expect the best ..he made the keeper work anyway

Couldn’t see him getting a sniff to be honest but he did alright today. Not sure he’s quite physical or quick enough to be a first pick in this system. A threat around their box for sure, but think Laurent is probably going be above him in the ranks when he’s back.
Fair play to him if he can give Schumacher a selection headache.

Played very well and set pieces are 100% better when he takes them. Laurent can do one now he’s fit.

Forced a great save with his 3rd effort - decent game and good to see him back. Glad SS has given everyone a clean slate.

In a team with movement I think he’s got a place in the squad. He showed plenty today.

Played himself back into contention today.
There's got to have been some kind of fall out with Neil: his form dropped off a cliff last season.
Have already said I can see Laurent doing the same. He was a lot better when he first joined than the player we've seen recently. Our midfield is very strong.

In form Baker would score 1 or 2 today. He's also the best set piece taker we have, corners much better today.
