Hirst 21:18 - Sep 4 with 2688 views | ThatMuhrenCross | I love him. But is he in danger of being dropped? 1 penalty goal from 4 games is not an ideal start, and with Akpom and Azon chomping at the bit, I wonder if McKenna will give one of them a go against Sheffield United… |  |

It will come good for him, but I think it is the same as it is for all the team, the weight of expectation is sitting a little heavy at the moment, things will click . . . [Post edited 5 Sep 8:18]

Yeah funny how delap did nothing before the chelsea game, then played a worldie and then did nothing after that game, where did he end up in the end? ;) |  |

None of them are playing well at the moment, which probably indicates it's a collective issue rather than about one player or another. |  |

I think he’s probably got a few games credit in the bank. He will benefit from having a settled 3 behind him. I haven’t seen enough of Azon to know whether he’s going to be an upgrade on GH or not |  |

We made a big show of offering him a big new contract amidst PL interest in the Summer, think it's unlikely we'll have massively changed plans after 4 games. |  |
