Orsi Gone

I just hope we’ve received GBP rather than any crypto magic beans from them as a fee. It’s a shame he’s gone but you’d hope that means we’ll have a replacement lined up.

Quoted from diehardmariner

But if we've brought in better...

For what's it worth I think he merited more chances.

Wish the lad well.

Agree, would have liked to see him play with a Taylor 21/22 type player, or 2 up front with Rose. Magnificent over the 2 games v Luton.

Only makes sense to me if do now bring in better

Ultimately, other than some decent performances in Cup games, he didn't do enough when given a chance in the league, so I'm not too surprised he has left. I thought he'd probably be heading into the National League truth be told, so good for him that a League club has come in for him. Makes life easier for Hurst as I think we'd struggle to fit him in this season given the types of forwards we've signed so far.

Of course, he's guaranteed to score against us, so let's hope our other attackers can score at least a couple when we face Crawley!

He did great in the Cup games where endeavour was the order of the day but he never really cut it in the League. I wish him well, the effort was always there, he never let his head drop and that’s a lot more than some managed in the past.

This is a weird one for me as I think it’s probably the right footballing decision for us but emotionally he just seemed a town player if that makes sense. Perhaps not the goal scorer we was after but on the rare occasion he did get on the pitch he was a trier and never lacked effort and a really likeable fella. I wish him well and personally hope he goes on to have a good season for himself.

Thanks for the (short) but sweet memories Danilo and when you decide to hang up them boots a degree in Drama wouldn’t go  amiss after the beautiful antics at St.Mary’s

Another player out the door because he won’t car share from Sheffield

I imagine his contribution per minute was higher than both Taylor and McAtee last season. I know there's far more to football than goals and assists, but with the exception of Lloyd we didn't have anyone up front who did enough up there.

The difference between Orsi and the others is that he didn't get a sustained chance. Even when we were pretty much begging for something different up there. McAtee and Taylor continued to be picked even when contributing nothing.

He's gone and it was always on the cards. I fancy that we'll look back in 12 months and see this as the right move. But, for whatever reason, I don't think he had a fair crack of it here.

When was he given a chance in the league? He only started 5 league matches all season and the first time he started two games consecutively was in the 4th and 3rd from last matches of the season.

If you add up his (very low) minutes played across the season and divide it by his total goals and assists (4 + 4 = 8 ) he averaged a goal or assist every 140 minutes played. The only other player in our squad last season coming close to that sort of attacking output was George Lloyd.

Good luck to him.

Scored goals in his non league days but didn't score goals for us or Harrogate. He was often anonymous in games and didn't turn his hard work into an end product.

Seemed a good bloke so I genuinely hope he does well.

But not against us.

Like Orsi, and I’ve banged on about that for a while - would have liked him to stay as think there’s something there. But it’s a deal to go back South which you’d guess is something he probably wanted and we get a fee,  best for all parties.

Again, I liked him but let’s not pretend what our main gripe was last season - strikers and goals. He scored 4 in 32 and has some way to go to prove himself at this level, are we in a position to wait? Looking around some of the main people annoyed by this (by no means all) are the same that were the biggest critics of our forward options last year. I think Hurst is being very clinical in this window.

Thanks for the memories Dan, you’ll be fondly remembered!
