I know we all have a moan about Gayle, but we can’t go on with him surely.
He’s been a huge disappointment, yes he’s an intelligent player but we expected goals and we’ve had sod all really. If we are to move forward we have to get him out and better in.
Seems like an obvious task but is it achievable?

He’s not intelligent. That nonsense needs to end.
He’s been an utter disaster for us.

Its hard to remember a successful pass from him today, an interception, a dribble. Let alone a shot on target.
Playing with ten men when he's on

We desperately need a strong goalscorer to lead the line.

My patience with him ran out a long time ago.. Overpaid ineffective and useless.As someone said it's like playing with ten men. I haven't even seen todays game...

No point in having a finisher when we're so poor in the final third

He's in the team because we are a high pressing team and so players who can't do it means the opposition break out of their half easier.
He is poorer this season than last, last season he held the ball up better and won more headers (surprisingly) than he does now.
At the end of his career and I'd be surprised to see him stay with us at the end of this year.
Wesley is just too slow, Lowe needs time in and out of the team to adjust and Mmaee is injured so it doesn't leave Neil with much choice. I'm not sure if Tezgel would list pressing stamina highly.
Assante is a high press forward so could see us back in for him or similar.

As soon as he got to Stoke zero goals.

Our CF options are miserable and hugely expensive the sooner we get most of them out the door the better. We need to score a lot more goals not a few.

He was actually stood offside loads of times yesterday when we had the ball, impossible to pass to him, if there's a point behind him doing that I'm missing it.

Yes it's not just Gayle Mmaee is clearly a good player but Injured a lot so far, jury has to be out on whether he is the answer Wes is supposed to be the option off the bench, worked well v Leeds but has had to be used as a starter too often plus (with Gayle) very expensive wages Campbell on a good day is by far our best striker but we see lots of games where he is woeful, also injured a lot and looks set to leave Lowe and Tezgel are good prospects, probably want one to go out on loan in January All in all one of it works I think till January if Mmaee can get a run of games we should get a better idea of whether he is going to score regularly or not |

Such players don’t tend to be successful in this league. He might adapt, look in the mirror and grow a pair but I wouldn’t put a pound on it. |

Yes he's a fanny but he is good on the ball and looks confident in his shooting he's not going to poach goals though, he looks like a scorer of good goals I just think he's the best option atm |

I don’t think he’ll succeed unless he comes to terms with the rough stuff. |

Mmae looks good with the ball to his feet, but generally awful with his back to goal and a defender close to him. He just doesnt seem to like the rough stuff at all.
Hes not the smallest fella, but he needs a bit of agression in his game to be successful in the Championship. If he grows a pair of balls he could be what weve needed.
Gayle shouldnt be playing its simple as that.
