Cundle?

When has Cundle broke through the opposition’s defensive line? He hasn't yet but look at the way he plays - head up,quick pass to feet and on the move. In the same position Baker would be looking to shoot - Cundle is looking to play someone in and moving forward to provide an option if needed. I actually like Baker and don't have a problem if he gets the nod in front of Cundle but it just isn't a matter of swapping players, it's playing a different type of game. I don't think Schumacher is picking Cundle over Baker purely in terms of them as individual players, he's doing it because of the way he wants the team to play. And personally I think Schumacher should be given his head and not have his game plan determined by who is the fans favourite. So then, he’s been an ever present in the team since joining and has contributed absolutely nothing to justify the place?

There's a weird Cundle bashing bandwagon - he's clearly Schumacher's choice and it almost feels like he's become the proxy for bashing the manager without breaking ranks and actually bashing the manager this early in his tenure. Personally I don't think he's looked that bad - lots of energy, a good first touch and in the Birmingham game linked up well with JunHo. Way too early to write him off. Good to see some thoughtful arguments but I don't think I'm on a bashing bandwagon, am just confused about how his performances have helped us at all. Bae is our player and arguably has done better than Cundle at basically every aspect? The midfield was humming along fine but now looks disjointed. Jack Clarke shredding us last week is a good reminder not to write players off so easily, but it's looking like a mighty odd decision to overturn the best bit of the team and not reinforce the catastrophic defence. EDIT: I'm sure I saw people shitting on Clarke, but apparently now Lazio like the look of him for £15 mil?!

Started off slow but got better towards the end of the season, worked perfectly with Junho, can still improve too and is quite young yet as well, would be delighted with this signing

A really key footballer to entertaining football. Moves the ball small distances through forward passes or running forwards. Fingers crossed.

I’d happily see him return. Finished the season brilliantly, maybe he just needed to bed in, as many do? It’ll piss off a few who want us casting a wider net (which I think is what we should do also), if we’re just bringing back last seasons loanees 😂

Same with Philogene and Clarke (even though they were quite raw playing for us), you could still see the potential they both had, probably would’ve made us millions

1 word - potential (are we in to buy him or loan him??)

At least we can chuck him in straight away if he's fit enough seeing as he's accustomed to our ways.

Cundle & Hoever are no brainers, Hoever links up really well with Manhoef and Jun ho with Cundle 👍

It’s why I find it frustrating (although I can see the other side of it) when players are getting lots of criticism. I get that they might be inconsistent but a few players have come through here and done ok then go on to become accomplished players. I can see the other side of the argument as we’ve had average or slightly below from players in the recent past but it sometimes takes a season to grow into the tactics, team, role etc. I’d take him back and I’d bet he’ll have a good season if he did.

Hopefully some familiarity and not 18 new players means we can see that happen more and sooner

Junior who the Oatcake Fuckwiterati reckon can defend was put there for about 5 minutes, if that before either AN/Schu(can't remember which one) dicided to switch them.

For some reason he was much better at RCB when it came to defending, possibly due to cover or not roaming, but when he was RB/Rwb he got rinsed quite a few times.

Wasn’t Cundle written off and regarded as being shit on here last season?

For some reason he was much better at RCB when it came to defending, possibly due to cover or not roaming, but when he was RB/Rwb he got rinsed quite a few times. So did the other players we played there (Gooch, Leris, Junior). Maybe he just wasn't a terrible defender after all. I know not many will admit it because it involves admitting they were spewing utter arse gravy when vilifying Hoever was the Oatcake's most popular pastime.

I’d have thought we’d be buying Cundle. Can’t see how we afford Hoever.
