Good luck to him etc but this has prompted me on something I’ve been thinking for a while which is, why did we sign him? He’s not a 9 and doesn’t have the technique to play 10 or wide for us, IMVHO of course. He’s very good at pressing and has lots of energy and enthusiasm but I still think he’s been a weird signing. |  |

That's a shame, but might hasten Akpom being given a chance. Even Nunez in there? |  | | |

Think McKenna wants to play a more physical/faster player in that central role as a second striker rather than a floaty 10, which suits Akpom and Szmodics more. Also think he wants proper width from his wider attackers too. |  | | |

IMO wasn't a Mckenna signing and was just part of a batch of top of the championship stat talent pool we were signing with our prem money
Sammy under KM reminds me of when KM had to take on Scott (signed by cook), never suited KM football [Post edited 7 Sep 12:34]

Well I said all this when we were linked but got absolutely piled-on of course. A thoroughly odd signing and now a crock too. |  | | |

You have no idea whatsoever if your first sentence is true. | |

This is why you say you have a niggle and can't play, the truth is if you're playing well for your Club you'll be selected for the world cup squad when it comes around anyway...we pay his wages, sorry but at 29 with his injury record he needs to be smart.. |  | | |

So when MA and KM described the recruitment process, they lied. Do you have any evidence for that? |  | | |

You could add Clarke to that as well. Neither suit Mckennas football. Square pegs in round holes. Why we purchased either to not then play to their strengths was a stupid idea. Mckennas is too stubborn to play them how they need to play. They will never suit his system. |  | | |

Clarke is the one who really jumps out. How hard could it have been to foresee that a player who had his best season playing with chalk on his boots would get in the way of how we use Leif? Even I can spot that. | |

I think that's an accusation that no-one is making, but you could have commonly read in the national press that they supposed we were busy assembling a squad for this year rather than last. If there were a glimmer of truth in that, no manager would have owned to it, but chosen rather to be economical with the truth, which is not usually classified as lying. | |

Clarke doesn't get in Leif's way anywhere near as much as Philogene who just slows everything down and leaves Leif with no option but to drift inside. |  |
