Quoted from Maringer
I'm far from impressed with Hunt, given his propensity to needlessly give the ball away multiple times a game. However, after that midfield performance on Saturday, I'd throw him in there as I don't think he could do any worse than the players who were selected on the day!


I think we were playing 4-2-3-1 on Saturday and Harry, Eisa and Rose were the three of the front six who played against Crewe, the other three in that game were Hunt, Gnahoua and Conteh - one has gone and the other two haven't been seen for weeks. Holohan doesn't get a look in either. Instead we get Andrews who has had possibly one decent game, Wood who can best be described as 'inexperienced' and Green who is 'limited' (being very polite).

As I understand, we are trying to play possession based football so you need players who can pass it and on Saturday we seemed to pick a team that can't.

Got to agree re Hunt.  He has the ability to play killer balls and be creative but his inability to make the simple passes at times from his own half has given away a lot of goals, which is mad as he’s not even played much.

I'd love to know about all these goals he's given away because, other than one at Notts County, I can't remember any!

Well exactly. You could make a feature length Youtube video for certain members of our squad.

The frustrating thing about Hunt for me is that he's obviously got a good touch and can pick a pass. It's the concentration levels which are the problem. When he gives the ball away, it tends to be a simple under-hit or over-hit pass of the sort which he really shouldn't be messing up, given his general ability. Players such as Green aren't great technically and you can understand why they make such errors, but 'ball players' shouldn't have the same excuse.

Wood was pretty awful on Saturday (yes, I know he's an inexperienced young lad), so if Hunt was fit, I'd have him playing instead of Wood.

I'm afraid Hunt goes completely missing against any physical team - he's only ever looked good against 'footballing' teams or end of season games when players are 'on the beach'
