why pick out Ladapo. What's wrong with our fans?
It's Freddie's fault we didn't win today is it? Leading scorer, one of the few players with some form currently and you single him out with a sly dig. I don't get it |  |

He frustrates me, that’s why. I’d love him to do well and he’s on course for low- to mid-teens, which is reasonable-ish. Yet the amount of times we flash balls across the box into areas he should be or he misses other good opportunities drives me up the wall; I’d like to see more from him. It’s not like he’s isolated.
Maybe I’m being unfair and he’s not being asked to play that role or isn’t the type of player to play it (he can hold the ball up well and bring others into play). Just seems a bit of a waste if he’s not suited to that finishing role and maybe we need one of the number 10s to get beyond him and attack that space in the box for crosses and the like. |  |

Ultimately, the blame needs to be laid at the recruitment rather than Ladopo. I don't for a second believe that he was supposed to be the number 1 striker this season.
We chased Hirst all summer, didn't get him for whatever reason, had no backup or simply left it too later and then panic signed Ahadme on the back of one good game against us at the start of the season. I don't for a second believe he was on any lists at the start of the summer. Ultimately, that decision may well cost us promotion. |  |

Freddie was one of our best players today, he won or held up countless balls under pressure form a packed Cheltenham defence, and laid off a lot of good balls. If you want to lay blame anywhere, those in the "hole" Chaplin, Harness, and also Wes were just not at the races. It was tough to get any space, but they were the ones who should be getting on the end of the balls Freddie lays off. |  |

I didn’t see today, but yeah that’s pretty much what I said. He’s good at bringing others into play, but we need those others and especially the number 10s to step up. PS - I’d just like to see a bit more from our striker in front of goal. [Post edited 12 Nov 2022 18:20]

My biggest gripe with Ladapo is he has a first touch like a trampoline. Once he gets the ball under control, he can hold it up and lay it off, but that's like 30% of the time |  | | |
