    is it that they hardly get a chance or just that we need them to instantly score and become integral to the team straight away

    for a large part of the 9 in a row years we surely should have had the opportunity to give players time to find their rhythm in the first team yet it never happened

    is it maybe because the fans are impatient and wont give players time ?

    whatever the reason he really does look a very capable striker probably not got the quick feet to dribble past packed defences though

    Hes got every attribute that we need that our other Strikers don't have. So naturally we loan him out and have 4 Strikers who don't hold up play, drift to the wing and are * in the air.

    Guy seems to be coming good over on loan, so have to say, good on him. Getting away from what has become a toxic environment, and now working with real coaches looks to have made an impact on him.
    Maybe, given our current financial position, we may have to run with him next season.
    Lets face it, with exception of Eddy, our 3 other strikers not setting heather on firs.
    So, right now, I would be in favor of offloading Pat and giving Bayo a chance.

    I would be quite happy letting Ajeti and pat go in the summer and think we will need to bring in at least two new strikers as Eddie will be off .

    He's only played the full 90 twice.. Total 939minutes of football in 20 games i think it is . 5 goals and 2 assists.

    He has hit a run of form, I think he coukd be a good option next season. We shouldn't be getting rid of Ajeti he has talent there and is good off the ball Eddie will be away and I don't think much for afolabi, recon he will be loaned out again, paddy I don't know, for all he's been here he's hardly had a chance and Griff is Griff

    He is easily a better player than Klimala.
    I am not sure he is the answer for us but definitely more of a threat than Klimala
    and being honest what I have seen of Ajeti so far I would rather play Bayo.

    Id have him back. He's a major threat in the air which is something we dont have in a striker.

    This is exactly what i thought he would bring when we signed him. When he got a game for we didn't see enough of it. I still think we need a player that gives this option but he isn't the answer.

    Id argue we didn't give him enough of that kind of service. He's maybe not the answer but id like to see him have a decent chance to show it, if he can stay fit. Good option from the bench for me

    League 2 in France decent standard better than league we bought him from .... we were looking to buy striker from that division with similar records for upwards of five million missed out on one went to Lyon if your a coach looking to rebuild after Eddie you would let this guy come back and give him a chance

    Tino Kadeware is the guy your thinking off and I am sure he had close to a goal a game over 20+ games when we were linked to him. I also think Lyon paid about €12m for him in the end.

    He was another who first made a name for himself in the Scandinavian market in Sweden with Djurgarden before moving to Le Harve for under £2m.

    The guy is scoring goals in the french top league, if he wasnt our player he’s exactly the type of guy we should be scouting.

    Bring him back in the summer and at least give the guy some * game time see if he can do something, instead of judging our players on 5/10min cameos...

    Everyone should get a fair crack in our summer camp..

    He's starting to score some pretty good goals. Well taken..

    Extremely good in the air. Quick. Can go beyond and showing he can finish. His most noticeable quality i clocked for us was his movement..

    The rebuild is that big that it would be handy if a few of our loanees could come back and be decent squad player's at the very least to call upon. Even if Bayo was 4th in line. He has something different. We don't have a striker that is good in the air for starter's..

    The league below mate but it's still a decent enough standard where a lot of quality comes out of..
