    6 in 15 isn't an horrendous return though. He's on for near enough 20 goals which is the bench mark for a good striker at any level.

    Especially one that creates as little as we do. Same as last season really, he’s feeding off set pieces and solo brilliance.

    Apologies. I must have missed your answer. Incidentally, what was your answer? Serious question.

    You notice the strapping on his left knee?
    A Clue,A Clue A Clue!
    Didn't the knee lock up during one of the early games this season
    He isn't quite the same as last seasons vintage but at least he is battling through unlike some of our sicknotes
    Mind you, with his new contract you would think he can afford a nice new knee support pad.

    He's a weird player.

    Sometimes a player comes along and they just don't seem to have any obvious role, position, or outstanding ability.

    I'd actually argue Osadebe is the same.

    Osadebe and Oduor just don't seem to have any defined role, and rather than being useful from a utility POV, they just don't fit in anywhere.

    I feel bad for Cook.

    He's expected to score all of our goals because everyone else is useless, but he's clearly injured and operating at 75 %.

    He's not even like a one legged man in a football game, at the minute the only thing he can do fairly reliably is head the ball.

    And he's still scoring far more than anyone else.

    Of course they were.
    It's why I posted saying had we actually improved under Kev as in coaching wise.
    No is the answer.
    But I do feel that structure and shape wise we are creating more under Kev.
    Swindon at home and yesterday, all we need is Cook to buck up his fitness and to get Chapman, Pointon, Pattison and Walker playing together and we might see an end product to the chances fashioned.
    Odour starting yesterday shows as you say where we are now but we have better players to return or call upon.
    I would like to see some fluidity in our formation too.
