Anyone think he moans alot when he's playing?
I get that it must be frustrating only get 5/10 minutes when your trying to push yourself back up the ladder in terms getting a starting place but my god, any pass that doesnt go to him when there might be a slight chance, arms go flying up and seems to proper cry about it.

Then when he did get a last minute header, he didn't fire it home. Probably the only real negative I left the ground with yesterday
 
Yeah I noticed when he came on vs Hull in the cup that he was always waving his arms around.

He goes down too easily as well but isn’t good at conning the ref like Garner or Hugill when they used to back into people and hit the deck.

Not that it really matters in the context of a 5-1 win of course.

There is always a scapegoat. Stockleys header was a harder chance than Nugents first half header & second half sitter. Nowt said though. Don't get me wrong, I like Nuge but you have got to be fair with any criticism.

I love the scapegoat comments always being brought up at the moment. It seems anytime at the moment any criticism is brought up about let's say Stockley or Potts is automatically pull out the scapegoat card.

No, I just made an observation about him moaning alot when on the field. That's all.
 
Oh good there’s the weekly scapegoat comment. I think people need to brush up on what that means. Ie someone blamed for the mistakes and faults of others. We are 3rd in the league and the highest scorers. What is there to scapegoat someone for

Our 5th goal came about due to Stockley closing down their CB who then underhit his pass to his CB partner who was robbed by Johnson, but Stockley won’t get any credit for the part he played in the goal. That said, I don’t disagree with the comments made about him being frustrated when he doesn’t get a pass when he’s in a decent position. Not a lot wrong in that imo, as it shows he wants the ball when he has a chance of scoring.
 
As this video shows, a high proportion of his goals at Exeter came from early crosses from the touchline or byeline. If we had a David Eyres or Chris Sedgwick on the wing, that's the service he'd get but as Neil has stated, he doesn't really fit into the team's style of play at the moment. It's no good asking him to run the channels or chase balls over the top, he's just not that kind of player.

‘‘As Neil has stated, he doesn't really fit into the team's style of play at the moment''

Gordon Bennett, in that case why on earth did we buy him?
Does Neill not have the final say what players come here?
If the Riddler has the final say, GOD help us IMO
 
Well.

If Rudd kicks it absolutely nowhere near him constantly, he has every right to moan about it. Especially when he gets blamed for 'not winning a header' even when the kick goes ten yards away from him!
 
I'm trying to figure out what young Jayden has done exactly to deserve any negative comments. Surely they're tongue in cheek wind up ?
 
You want our players to improve ? Starting negative threads about them won’t help. I personally think he is pretty good at hold up play and bringing others into play with flick ons etc, it’s not his fault he isn’t getting crosses coming in from out wide to head home, and it’s not his fault he isn’t getting game time.
