I take it you aim personal insults at anyone that has an opposing view to yourself? Goodnight, I'm not willing to engage with the likes of you. Sad really, as it would appear most Nobbers on here, whilst happy to describe Rovers as Plastics for their financial influence in Premier League success are now criticising our owner for the temerity of not spunking millions on average talent. All this when TH has pumped millions into the club over decades to keep us going. Each to their own eh?

There is spunking money and there is reinvesting the profits from developing players. Two very different situations.

In defence of Proton you did begin this tirade by calling everyone pricks

Irony not your thing obviously.
I think it was your kind self who started with the insults towards posters holding a different view to yourself,perhaps you think that is engaging other posters ,however it is a relief to know that the likes of you will not be engaging me in the future.
Quite right to find fault with our fans rather than our billionaire owner,each to their own as you say.

Moult had the most Louis Moult performance of the season today.

Link up: excellent, created a few chances. Holds everything into his feet

Goal threat: non existent, when you’re 12 yards out you shoot not try to play a pass.

Would definitely persevere with him though, as Nmecha is really not up to it and playing Robinson in the 9 role means Barky wide left which is inherently worse than Moult up top

Not sure Sam.

I’d play Moult on Tuesday, as he’s a bit more familiar with the defensive work he has to do which is important against Leeds.

But moving forward I think playing Nmecha will be the better option. He needs time to bed in. Judging off his performances so far, yes, he isn’t up to it. But he’s 19 and it’s his first loan spell. I think patience with him will pay off eventually.

Go on then, what exactly did he do?

He won 2 headers in 80 mins, completed 60% of his passes, and had 0 shots.

Singling out players for criticism after yesterday is unfair considering the vast majority of the squad deserve the criticism.

Huntington, Clarke and Davies seem immune for some reason. Davies let his man go for the first goal but let's ignore that because he is one of our own.

Johnson for the 2nd was marking no one. He gets paid thousands of pounds a week to mark thin air well done to him. He let the man go.

When fisher goes forward and loses the ball he jogs back. I mean that's a disgrace.

I'm not going into a meltdown as I am not one of those people but some of them players yesterday need to realise how much they get paid and actually look like they actually care.

No point singling out Moult when there are a lot more issues at present.

The only players to come out of this game with any credit were Robinson and Gallagher.

He may well not be the reason we lost. But he was still utter garbage. At the end of the day he is employed as a striker to score goals and at no point does he ever look like doing that. Regardless of how we set up he poses absolutely no threat. I think i would of rather kept doyle to be honest and thats saying something!!

Does remind me of Doyle and May, never gets into games or threatens. A sign of someone playing above their natural level.

Someone started a thread on Moult. I’m well within my rights to respond to it. Thankfully others are now coming around to the fact that he’s not much use.
 
How's Gally getting off scot free? He wussed out of a header to try and con a free kick, then moaned to the ref whilst they were going on to score the first goal

Of course you are. And Moult didn't play well yesterday. But players like Davies seem immune to criticism for some reason.

Feel free if you wish to starts threads about those players, and their mistakes yesterday. Both were poor.

My view on Moult in the OP isn't just about yesterday's match, it's my opinion/assessment of him as a player over a period of time, culminating in another performance yesterday without ever looking like shooting, never mind scoring. He hasn't threatened all season, and on his few starts last season, looked to have nothing about him then either.

He looks out of his depth, and as it stands we're probably relying on a 19 year old loanee coming good for goals. Although for now my personal preference would be Robinson up front.
 
Not good enough. Scored a hand full of goals in a pub league. Never a Championship player. Painful we are with him and Nmecha until Maguire comes back.
 
Not really sure we needed a further thread about Moult. We know where he is and his standard if we expect major changes then we're going to need a new thread every week. FWIW I don't think he was that bad at the weekend, does a lot of the build up work and sometimes it's just impossible to do that and then get in the box in time.

I guess a question could and should be who made the decision to sign the lad in the first place?
 
Moult

Can anyone please explain what his strengths are?

Supposedly his link up is good. Is it though? I'll admit the service to him is poor, but he was wasteful in possession tonight, has no pace, no strength, is poor in the air and is never in the box.
