Left foot, right  foot? I don’t care what part of his body he uses just get it in the net! It won’t happen but would be good to see him start if only as has been said something clicks. Somethings got to change.........UTM


Yes, he seems two footed was my point, which is always a bonus in a player, especially a striker, in that he is comfortable whichever foot a chance lands on.

He will do ok if he can leap like a Salmon cos let`s face it any chances he gets will need to be converted from about 7ft above his head.

What some people are missing is that the stats do not tell the bigger picture.
He went out on loan to get fit, that includes match fitness. So it took him a handful of games to get there . The style of play under Richard money was to play the ball on the deck. When the new manager arrived he played the long ball wanting akwasi to change his style.next game he brought his own forward in whose record is 1 in 10 aware during this period has been used as a sub coming on with 10 mins to go. As someone pointed out it may not work at grimsby because RS plays a similar  way hoof the ball to the front instead of of via the midfield.

Am i missing something here?

Why do people think he needs to start?

He played 90 mins on boxing day and hasn't played since

before that he played a total of 278 minutes from 8 games, a possible of 720 minutes...

he scored 1 in 9 for us and and none in the 11 games he was involved in at Solihull on loan...

If we are hoping he will change our fortunes, it really isn't looking great  


Can he do any worse than what we have got?

He won't get anywhere near the first team cause he ain't a Slade signing, will go out on loan again somewhere

If Asante has anything about him this is a golden opportunity to stake a place and make a mark in a league club.

The competition ain't great the team/naigh WE the fans are crying out for a natural finisher.  

Somebody we can cheer on and take our minds off the shenanigans off the pitch.

Go for it son we are desperate for success.

Well, his 'goals reel' still looks encouraging. You don't know how many chances he was getting in those games and it was against non-league opposition, but plenty of calm finishing on show in that video clip.

Assuming he gets a game, the main problem will still be creating the chances in the first place!

I agree. I can't see him getting in the team.

Go 4-3-3 with normal back four, McAllister, Summerfield & Jones in midfield with Dembele, Asante and Vernam up top.

Picked McAlister soley on how he played against Plymouth and the fact that things cannot get much worse, if he is not fit put Rose in there.

Hopefully, this would give some pace, skill and a chance to play those balls in behind their back four and get some pressure in the final third. May leave us a bit exposed at the back but if Mc can manage 90 minutes with Summers to help out could work.

Certainly, IMO worth a punt as you never know!!!!!
