Never really been one for slating players but what a shocker to the season this man has had.

His set pieces have been dire. Floating corners into the keepers hands for one. Weak and not the same player as he was. Needs dropping.

Shocking

You must have only watched one game this season?!

Isn't really guilty of floating corners into the keeper , that's Johnson . Last night's game was poor for him , but usually he has a good one . One game shouldn't affect you're entire season
 
He needs dropping and Horgan should be given a start. Robinson's shooting and all round decision making have been very poor.
 
I'm all for players finding their feet but consecutive poor games is a recipe for a dropping if ever I saw one.

Swap him out and make Robbo work for his place again in training.

Agree he needs dropping for the time being. He just can't hit the target.

Correct. He's not performing anywhere near the level that we know he can, at the moment.

Needs dropping and someone else given a chance to shine.

Sorry if this upsets the "here's to you Callum Robinson" brigade but, it's a fact. He's been fucking wank.

A young player, possibly a little unsettled with a new manager and linked with a big money move. It would be only natural that his form dips for a period

So you agree that he's been poor of late then.

Any other player suffers a 'dip in form' at most other football clubs......they are dropped and another squad player is given their chance.

Yep. People getting too upset about some slight criticism.

No one's saying he isn't a good player - he just isn't hitting the levels of how good we know he can be, as you said.
 
Let's be honest, Barkhuizen hasn't been great recently either. No player should be exempt from criticism. If they're not performing to the level we know they can....and have actually been poor, we should be able to discuss other options. We've got to be ruthless.

They're professional football players, they've got to expect this.

We know they're good players. Nobody is saying otherwise.

Poor of late? We are 3 games into a new season in which we are trying to change our style of playing under a new manager with different ideas than the previous one. One who happened to sign Callum 3 times. My point is more so around the factors that may be contributing to below par performances rather than just logging on and saying 'useless' or 'shocking' or 'he is the one we should be getting rid of'.

To be honest I've only seen highlights of our 3 games so cant really comment on how good or bad his performances have been. I do know he was flying in pre-season and I for one was expecting big things from him.

No player is undroppable and perhaps a spell coming off the bench may work well. Either way, he will come good.

Robinson and Bark have been poor. Barkhuizen is being played way out of position though.

I've seen them all and he's been terrible by his standards. It's not just baseless abuse.

Other players seem to have adapted well to the new regime.

It's not the 'adapting' that he's struggling with anyway. It's the basics...shooting, dilly dallying on the ball, not getting his head up, poor passes etc. He just looks distracted and sluggish to me. Like he's been playing with a hangover for 3/4 games.

As you say though, I have every faith that he'll come good again, but for the moment, something needs changing.
