I asked a legitimate question, I've only seen 3 of the games that BT has played in and I'm a ball watcher rather than a game watcher. My question is valid and still remains, does he or does he not involve the midfield positively? Subsequent posters suggest that 'we' are playng more hoofball with him up front, therefore the midfield are bypassed and redundant. Therefore 'he' becomes the weak link. It doesn't matter whether you or I think he's crap or otherwise (which isn't what I said), if our play is affected by him being on the pitch then I'd sooner play with someone we can pass the ball around with.
This Barca-esque formation that we persevere with only worked for the personnel we had two and a half years ago ... we aint got a Procter or a Ryan or a fit Craney or a Gornell or even a PrimarkConville to play that brand of football with. Only Boco could dream of slotting into that midfield.
