Which bit isn't true?
You've been taking patronising lessons from Stokie it seems!
To confirm.... now read this slowly....
* He cannot finish
* He cannot hold the ball up and bring others into play
* He makes unintelligent runs and often far too early
* He cannot head the ball
But he is a fast runner, I will give you that one!
I don't rate him, its quite simple. In saying that, he is an Ipswich player and I'd like nothing more than for him to come back into the team in a few weeks and bang the goals in. Make me look proper stupid! Ha. |
You're doing a pretty good job of that without Kayden Jackson's help. |  |

I think you need to look up the definition of "patronising", Just for the record it doesn't mean "when someone disagrees with you and provides evidence".
There is evidence against all those points, especially the first two. You ignore the stats to make some weird point against him personally.

Precisely. He can't finish and yet he was our joint top scorer last season and his conversion rate was decent. He makes unintelligent runs and yet he got himself into positions that enabled him to set up 7 goals for his teammates and to create plenty of other chances too. I'm not sure what he'd need to do to change Wally's mind, he could bang in 25 goals this season and set up another 15 and he'd probably say that all he does is run quick.

It really is bizarre stuff.
It seems to be an opinion based on selective evidence from before 2019.

Also missing from your little list is:-
He is clearly our best attacking player based on the evidence from last season. |  | | |

If he did that, I might just eat my words.
But probably not.. |  |

I’d argue he’s our best attacking player but Hawkins makes the most out of the shape we currently play. I’m not sure if Jackson could play through the middle and I don’t think think we should move Edwards from the left (Lambert). |  |

I think if we play as we did second half on Saturday then Jackson would be fine as the central striker. He's no less suited to that role than Sears but we looked a lot better once we moved Sears central and stopped playing Judge as a striker. I think so long as direct balls are in the channels rather than lumped down the middle and so long as we mainly keep it on the floor, Jackson could play that role effectively. I think especially when the game is stretched he could be effective there. Hawkins does give us a good outlet and is decent at bringing others into play but he doesn't offer much of a threat himself. They'd play the role very differently and bring different strengths. | |

You'll find a lot of people on here have their football opinions (probably subconsciously) shaped by the obsessively stats led Sky Sports News and other 'popular' press. Discussing the nuances of football is just not on their agenda. Honestly, don't waste your time engaging as it becomes very frustrating very quickly. |  | | |

I have no idea why we tried playing Judge as a false nine on Saturday - I’m not sure what he was trying to achieve. I certainly think Jackson’s pace would scare tiring defences in that central position. Is his link up play as good as Sears or Hawkins’ I’m not so sure but he’d certainly carry a threat. | |

Its fine, I totally get that on paper, Jacko looks like the main man.
I just found it interesting watching him, he just doesn't have a "footballing brain" and its very frustrating.
I also get that this is not real, its a forum and Stokie and the rest would be quite different in real life and we'd have a good old chat over a pint and all act a little more grown up! | |

HaHa, afraid not.
I'm a massive weirdo, but creating a new poster jsut to make a point, is not my bag!
Anyway, can we move on? I am not a fan of Jacko, you are.... end of.

Sure.
Enjoy your day.

I don't think so. Did you used to go to Portman Road just to watch David Lowe's movement because you wanted to be a better forward? If you did then I could be you, or you could be me. | | | |

He certainly improved last season and carried far more of a threat and an end product. He's still a player I find frustrating to watch though, as he sometimes makes poor choices and dead end runs when there is a better alternative which seems obvious.
Hopefully he'll continue to improve as he's come a long way from the headless chicken we saw in the Championship. I do think it's fair comment to say Hawkins fits the way we play far better however, I think the jury is firmly out on whether Jackson has the aerial ability and hold up play to do a similar job. Very different type of striker for me. |  |

Yep, thats the crucial bit. Hawkins fits the current formation much better than Jacko.
But yeah, you put it a little better than I did. | |

Yeah there's a big difference between his view and this:
"To confirm.... now read this slowly....
* He cannot finish
* He cannot hold the ball up and bring others into play
* He makes unintelligent runs and often far too early
* He cannot head the ball
But he is a fast runner, I will give you that one!
I don't rate him, its quite simple" | |

I like Jackson and think he's improved massively, but with the exception of cannot finish, I think there's an argument for all of that. Maybe just not worded quite so strongly. | |

I loved David Lowe!
Interesting fact about him, he wrote the theme tune for Countryfile. | |
