Seems right off the pace at present, he is such a quality player but appears to be struggling in the championship. Maybe a chance to reset himself if his injury means he has to miss a game or two . |  | | |  |

Iirc Sir Bob chose Osbourne in part due to pressure from his own teammates didn't he? |
Yep, that’s right. It’s certainly not a direct comparison, but it’s one of those (like Greaves and Hurst in 1966) where the best player for the team is not necessarily the best player. Currently Taylor, a decent enough player but not as good a footballer as Cajuste imo, is the better player for the team. |  |

Cajuste looks good on the ball, but there’s not enough end product for me. I’ve felt that way throughout his time with us. As far as injuries are concerned, you take on an injury prone player, don’t be surprised if he gets injured. It’s always a risk.
With regards to what players are paid, it all goes above my head. They’re paid the market rate and since we don’t actually know what these people are on I don’t see the relevance. Like transfer fees, it’s nothing to do with the players.
As a loan player, if the terms say he stays for the season, so be it, but if there was a way of terminating it in January, I would do so. |  | | |

I too didn't think he was suited to us last season. Beautiful footballer, but is a luxury and you can't carry him in centre mid. Watch the highlights for hull game and you see a player going through the middle of the pitch and Jens tried to do a last ditch sliding tackle and it doesn't work. I saw that many times last year and several this year.
The balance with Taylor is what we need. |  | | |

You see a player jogging. Whatever the circumstances, that's not what we require. |  |

I rewatched the 1st half this afternoon, and with a particular focus on Cajuste. There are a couple of times he could have been accused of jogging, but it's hard (imo) to claim anything more was needed at that point, and he's certainly not the only one 'jogging' at times.
What I did notice, which I've not seen before, is how vocal Jens is, and gesticulating much of the time - there's been talk about leaders needed on the field, and from what I could see from Tuesday, he is very much taking that responsibility.
Sure, he's not perfect, but few of the team have been, but I'd challenge anyone to rewatch the match and claim he we poor, or the worst on the field.
I want to see more from him yes, bit a lot of people appear blind to what he does bring. |  | | |

Think you’re right. He’ll produce a turn that will make you purr, but they rarely lead to anything. I didn’t particularly rate him last season and wasn’t overly fussed about him coming back.
Whether or not there’s a release clause in his loan I would definitely be looking for reinforcements in that area of the pitch in January | |

I've been flying solo on this one for a while, but in this team, with the options available, I see Cajuste as a real solution to the central #10 problem.
His quality is in his clever turns in tight spaces, away from covering midfielder/defenders & smart one-two passes, all of which are vital for breaking through low block & parked bus defences.
It doesn't work for us with Szmodics or Akpom in that role, when we are playing with 3 across that attacking line, especially when the wide players - Philogene/Clarke & Walle-Eegli - all like to cut inside, shrinking the available space even more.
Szmodics & Akpom are more direct running #10s, who work best when playing as a second forward, off the #9, with a more traditional midfield 3 or 4 behind them; that gives them more space to run into & drive forward with power & pace into good shooting areas. They just don't get too many of those opportunities in our set up.
This is why, in my opinion, Nunez has looked more effective in the central #10 role & links the play with Hirst (the centre forward), who I feel has suffered too from the change in personnel/approach behind him.
For me, the quick, clever feet of Cajuste, not to mention his height & strength, would be a real plus for us in that role, and I can visualise some really smart interplay with Philogene, Eegli, Clarke & Hirst. It also has the advantage of having the option of him dropping back to give us 3 in midfield when needed, maybe against the likes of Birmingham or Middlesbrough.
We have definitely looked a better balanced side with Nunez playing as the #10, so why not look at Cajuste there as an option too, when back from injury? [Post edited 27 Nov 11:29]

I don't think your flying as solo as you think with this
Cajuste because of lack of mobility for a duration, can't imo be in a central two midfield, as you say he's probably more suited to that more advanced role. But having said that, that also includes alot of pressing and I just don't see him having the body for it.
I loved him last season, despite our season, but this season he comes across as a bit of a liability in that he pulls off his quick feet to get away from two or three players, then gives it away, then can't get back.
Tomorrow for example, to get a result away v oxford, imo he can't be anywhere near the midfield |  |
