Regretfully to say, Sears in the team does not work, period.

Sears anywhere hasn’t worked in about 5 years to be fair

That I certainly agree with but surely we can do better than Sears?

If Sears starts any where, it has to be upfront

A decent sub but is now slowing down and shouldn't be a starting player in any team seriously challenging for promotion. No way would he be starting for Peterboro, Charlton or Hull etc. Lambert likes his favourites though.

His extra yard of pace was his main threat - beaten for pace by their defender today, sadly not a player that will make up for slowing down with speed of thought. Good professional but standing in the way of younger players now.

Unfortunately he doesn’t though. He seems to play on the right in order to allow Sears to plough on with the left wing effectiveness of Nikita Khrushchev’s barber.

As ive said on another thread,this notion about moving Sears up front and he suddenly becomes a world beater is just nonsense.He is a player on the decline,not worthy of even a spot on the bench.

Yesterday we started with 2 full backs and 2 wingers in their 30s. Not having to deal with anyone who can beat their man makes life so easy for the opposition. It was very noticeable that even though we still weren't playing well, Bennetts massively opened the game up when he started running at them.

Does he though? Lambert seems hellbent on playing him on the right despite the evidence that putting him on the left is where he's most effective.

I think the main thing is that Sears just doesn't really work - left, right or centre.

This is akin to that House of Games round when you have to replace a word to make the sentence correct - can I remove ‘left’ and replace it with ‘pitch’ please?

A consummate professional who always tries hard but sadly I think his time is done.

I'm not saying he's a world beater up there but he doesn't have to be in League One.

Isn't he our only striker to have scored this season in the league?

Thing is, in the 45 minutes he's played as a central striker this season, he scored 1 and set up 1.

James Alabi scored 1 goal in about 20 minutes of football and i wouldnt want him leading the line either.

Hawkins? At least Hawkins offers something,all be it very agricultural! Sears just doesnt do it for me and bar one purple patch when we first signed him,has never been a goalscorer.

That's a very small sample size. I don't really get why anyone thinks his scoring rate would increase dramatically if he were playing centrally. This isn't the days of 4-4-2, wingers hugging the touchline etc, he's allowed to make runs into central areas. Our top-scorer is a winger. And yet, his record for us in L1 is 2 goals in 19 appearances.

The only time Sears look decent has been through the middle as a second striker.

He's said himself he doesn't feel comfortable out wide.

There are a few players at this club who have had countless games and more than one season to make a difference and haven,t. The sooner we move away from favoritism the better for this club and team.

Just watched Quest and realised Josh Emmanuel is right back for Hull!

Surely he has to be one of their weak links and the left sided player needs to take advantage of that.

Sears hasn't been good for a number of years (and had injuries). Good to have around and a sub, but maybe shouldn't be starting anymore! We have plenty of options for that position.

I would say that is a bit harsh, Sears can really explode with the right partnership up front, or he COULD before he got injured. I am willing to bet many managers in the Championship with the right system could get a lot of quality out of Sears, but not on the wing- that is for sure.
