Would certainly add to our midfield if he’s fit and motivated. Clearly fell out with Neil. Goals in him as well.

To be honest, other than the goals (and yes i know thats important) he didnt do a lot if you ask me. Even under MON he was a passenger for most games If we are going to play with one attacking midfielder that would be Junho for me |

Yes please

Perhaps more his issue than the manager/s |

To be honest, other than the goals (and yes i know thats important) he didnt do a lot if you ask me. Even under MON he was a passenger for most games 100% agree but if fit, under a new manager (head coach), he should be given a chance. I wrote him off in summer, but given how it's panned out so far, I'd like to see him in there because it's been shocking so far this season. Even if he offers nothing but a few goals, we'd bite your hand off for it right now because I can't see where the next goal comes from. |

Saw something about Schum liking shots from outside of the box so Baker would seem a good fit for this.

Got to be worth a clean slate with the new gaffer. At least til June anyway. |

I'd have him over laurent and Pearson that's for sure. Infact I think Baker and burger would work very well together.

Bursting forward on the counter and getting a shot off. As a midfielder the game completely passes him by. Schuey will give them all a clean slate so we'll see but I suspect he may leave in Jan. |

He simply can’t be any worse than Johnson. I know Bae has his supporters on here, but let’s be honest, he’s done absolutely nothing yet. I’d have him straight back in playing as an attacking midfielder just behind the striker.

It's certainly a clean slate for him, lets hope he shows the desire for a new start.

He has decent technique but went off the boil after a great start. Last season woeful but so was everyone and he may have been hampered by needing an op. He did 90 mins the other day so he's fit enough to start now.
Schumacher seems to have a reputation in instilling belief and confidence. If he can squeeze 5-10% more out of even half the team, then we'll notice it. I think we will see some departures in January for all his talk about thinking it's a good squad, as we might have to sell to get people in who he trusts to build a team around.

With a manager who plays ATTACKING football we won't need anyone protecting the back 4 and passing sideways. |

None of our current midfield do a lot. At least Baker scores. He must play. We need goals.

Fresh start for all the players isnt it, certainly will be from the coaching teams perspective, hopefully the supporters also

The midfield unless an overnight miracle takes place is an absolute car crash.. I think somehow he needs 2/3 midfielders in January to make it work the way he wants it to.. Pearson & Burger for me, just don't move the ball quick enough.

Even under MON he was a passenger for most games If we are going to play with one attacking midfielder that would be Junho for me Juno is nowwhere near ready for me Certainly not as a left winger. As a number 10 he's looked quite tidy but starved of any decent ball and no one to play it with anyway so ended up trying to do too much on his own. |

I would be content just to see our players getting fit, and able to compete for the full 90/97 minutes  Don't see Baker being any better than the others in that department. Only Gooch, Junho and Burger seem able to run for the duration |

This fitness issue seems to crop up every time we change manager, the incoming manager always intimates a lack of fitness, surely all can't be getting it so wrong can they?.

A midfielder who knows what to do with the ball in the opposition half Yes please Other than shooting does he? If he's up for it got to be worth a look for his goals (& maybe his set pieces but they went to shit too) But I think Junho is better at everything else attacking wise If he's not up for it he can fuck off (same goes for anyone else) but clean slate time, interested to see if he can be an asset again |

He’s never really operated there for us. His best form was with Allen next to him. I’d like to think that he could find that again alongside Pearson. |

Clean slate for everyone but last chance for some. |
