Okoli can't play football. Absolutely woeful.

Our football is rank but that doesn’t mean that Abdul becomes this predictable and quite frankly, a below average winger.

 

He gives the ball away a lot by running into players when cutting inside, rinse and repeat.

 

He needs to mix up his play, as it’s so predictable.

Abdul needs the momentum of the game to be on his side…. We play with zero counter or pace for that matter, every time he gets the ball he’s expected to produce something from a standing start….

 

He has been poor this season, but I attribute half of that to our style of play, which is far too slow….. if he played in a team that attacked with more pace and aggression he would be more consistent.

The Luke Thomas long throws are the most embarrassing thing I’ve ever seen.

Okoli is a bit shit

Yep, our best partnership is Nelson / Vestergaard. 
 

People will hate on that suggestion however Okoli is a bomb scare when asks to pass a football. 

[Dahnsouff]

Yup, confirmed. Vestergaard is the problem.  

[Mark]

Should have made the most of the chances we had, those two long range efforts from Ayew and Reid sum up why we're going nowhere whilst they play.

[Anorak]

Always when I click on the match thread for the first time, sorry everyone.

[Pliskin]

That goal was far too ****ing easy. 

[Brooksy]

Shit Sol Bamba

[Fear Of The Fox]

And guess what, this happened because Fatawu didn't bother to shoot and gave the ball cheaply away. 

I've been very kind to him earlier. 

Sub him off in HT, 500k fine and 3 months wages. 

[ian__marshall]

Why is it that whenever we make a mistake we always get punished, yet we barely ever capitalise on other teams mistakes?

That's not true at all. 

[JonnyZeroFox]

We can’t defend… we are shit. Fatawu, Mavididi just waste chances more than anything. 

[Trav Le Bleu]

Oh mamma

Okoli is shitter with the ball than Amartey was

He can’t seem to pass the ball while moving.  He has to stand still, stutter and pass with little power.

Nah, I've seen him trying to run once.

He’s a bit like if you asked Gerry Taggart to be a ball playing centre back really. If he put it into

row Z when under pressure, he would be more useful …

Bang average first half, going in level. Alright Marti, if you're gonna have any sort of positive impact here, this is the perfect opportunity to show it.

 

Couple of positive changes at half time/early in the second half and be more on the front foot - actually play like the home side for a change - and we've got every opportunity here to show what we can offer for the rest of the season.

 

Equally, if we come out and it's more of the same - or god forbid worse - then for me thats Marti showing (again) that he's not got what it takes to actually get the most out of this club.

[Guesty]

Hasn't Fatawu got like 4 goals and 6 assists in 22 appearances. That really isn't too bad for a championship winger. Especially playing in a team without a proper striker.

 

Whole reason he's in the championship is cause he's inconsistent. If he wasn't he'd be worth £50 million and in the Premiership.

[squidsworth]

Abdul utter poo had loads of chances to run at their defence and bottled it every time. Sorry he needs to be dropped.
