    Of course he did but also for his performance also our results improved with him in the team. I think you and others have a lot invested in him being a failure after all the stuff that was said when he signed. He may or may not make it but without a doubt he did well in the games he played

    I'd like nowt better than for him to be as good as you seem to think he is but he just isn't. he's not good enough. we'll persevere with him, because he's one of Edin's pet projects, but not a chance he'd get in any other league 1 team.

    New season new expectations, but as you say that starting two up front would be worrying.
    I'd suggest an even more worrying thought would be Kai and Poleon as our starting pair up top :(.

    the point will be proven when we all realise he can't play football.

    Your great hero McCall not exactly in demand though is he? You'd think everyone would be chasing him. Edin also never picked the team despite your ludicrous claim.

    Bruckner is raw and a lot to learn but nowhere near as bad as you want him to be,but so is Gibson who everyone is happy to see extend his contract. Be patient with both players.

    Stuart McCall is one of my heroes, quite right. proud of that too. not sure why you'd feel the need to mention it in such a negative context.

    also as a manager, the stats prove he did an excellent job in his latest spell. despite what narrative people like yourself and Park want to put out.

    A bit like you having a go at a manager who brought the club actual success and good times

    I'd prefer to he extending the likes of Wykes contract, these two will be on peanuts, get Charlies agent rung and tell him we have an extended new 2 year deal with increases in his salary and bonuses.

    How do you know? he might be getting rung every day for all we no or not. I haven’t heard him say he is available for work! He might be still having counselling!!

    Come on with the shit we've been through recently if that was the case it would confirm to me that Edin is an idiot, at the present time Edin needs to be telling fans as much good news as possible and that sort of news would take some topping " Charlie Wyke signs new improved 2 year deal".
    Possibly already have, well then break the good news Edin !!!.

    From what I've seen of Bruenker he isn't good enough, and I'm not sure he will be. Granted he has an ok first touch and decent acceleration for a big guy, but not much else, he'll never be a goal scorer I'm 95% sure of that.

    Plus aren't we as a club try to implement a certain style of play, he had his uses in the hoofball team we saw at the end of the season, but I doubt he has enough ability to play in a ball playing one.

    We need far better.

    The most well-reasoned criticism of Brünker I have read. You mention good and bad points. I don't entirely agree with you but will be looking out for the points you raise if he plays next season.

    At a time when effort was required, he put a shift in - embarrassed his ‘supposedly’ more talented teammates. He ain’t the best, but at least he keeps going, unlike most of the 2017/2018 ‘bottlers’
