Quoted from Heisenberg
All this talk of Abo - he can score goals, but very little else. It’s a tough call. What’s clear to me is that Arthur is easily the classiest player we have, with the best first touch and flicks. But he doesn’t really score. I’d like to see Eisa play the 10 role, with Arthur and Vernam on the wings. Or maybe Arthur and Abo switch roles.

I actually thought if you’d have made a combined XI based on the first half yesterday, it would have been 10 Stockport players plus Arthur.


Arthur doesn't set others up to score either, flatters to deceive, ultimately doesn't contribute enough of that. A slightly better khan.

All this talk of Abu's defensive frailties and yet the same could be said about Gnahoau and Vernam. In fact Charlies heavy touch back towards goal lead to a Notts County goal the other week.  The difference between the 3 is that Eisa is performing going forward and now we have more solid full backs these points shouldn't be as much a problem moving forward. Personally am happy with Abu's contribution.

I personally think he is a really decent player but like a lot of players here, if he went elsewhere he'd do really well and we'd be scratching our heads as to why. Getting behind the lads certainly plays a key factor that's for sure. Case in point years ago with Danny Butterfield. You don't know what you have lost until they are gone.

He's there to be a matchwinner and is .

I'm not even his biggest fan , and he's not particularly my sort of player- I like the old Hurst style grafter who does the all round thing out wide .

But Eisa is doing his job and can't be deemed a major contributor to the mess we are in , for me .

He will have takers from a league up in the summer , I'm sure .

Abo is a threat that we absolutely need, that’s it really. 9 goals says all you need to know.
