Even if its an hour a game, he gives us more edge. We have a bench now that allows us to play players for an hour. Bogle is hungry off the bench, we have Vassel also. When NML is fit, him and Whyte can provide fresh legs for whoever starts. Hoillet may become more of an impact player. I'm become more optimistic that with a bit more time on the paddock and a bit more fettling, there is more to come. I also think once Glatzel gets his first we'll see a steady return. I believe there is more to him than some of the previous 'new hopes'. He's still coming up to speed with the championship. A long way to go, but fresh shoots...…..
I think Glatzel is on a steep learning curve. He loooks a bit fazed when clattered by defenders - probably something he's not used to in the more "technical" German leagues. However, he's head and shoulders above Zohore and Madine in the "desire" stakes. Half a dozen games under his belt getting up to speed with Championship football could make all the difference. Once he gets off the mark he could be a huge asset.
Bit belated but it seems Masky has gone missing with the matchday threads so I've created this and moved the relevent posts across. Please carry on about the game last night on here.
Come on, own up. Who's upset Masky? Or his he keeping a watching brief and will pounce when least expected? On another topic, I see Ken got his first for Baggies last night. Came on as sub and notched a penalty.
Need to stick with Glatzel - replacing him after just three outings would set him back big time. Agree Bogle is a tryer and deserves a break, but he'll have to wait.
I agree with Sparks. Bogle looks more of an impact player who will cause defences problems as they tire in the last 20 of a game. Did okay last night apart from the row Z shot. But at least he gave it a go and unsettled them.
Completely agree. Glatzel looked likely to score last night Another 20 mins played and I reckon he'd have had his goal. He needs to get off the mark!
Bogle and Tomlin shone out for me. I really think Bogle can score quite a few. As for Tomlin he’s a match winner. Start him in some games, bring him off the bench in others. Can’t see any way Ward or Madine will get in to the team. Glatzel, Bogle & Vassell well ahead of those 2.
