Scott Fraser or prime Zidane? 10:42 - Jan 31 with 1371 viewsDinnernotTea

Reading the backlash of Fraser going has got me confused. In 15 or so games here has there been 1 where he's looked top 6 quality? He always looks leggy to me and not interested.

Might regret it but based on Cook, McGreal & McKenna giving him limited minutes I'm not sure we will. The only club willing to pay money for him are 15th in League One.

What backlash?

Hardly a backlash.

Unfortunately with our big and quickly assembled squad and getting a team together from scratch otherwise proven players like Fraser and Pigott have lost out.

He’s been unlucky IMO even if he’s not going to be getting in ahead of Celina or Aluko who have done better.

Pronouns: He/Him

I hardly think that expressing disappointment that the player that he seemed to be concealing never showed itself constitutes a backlash - it's just regret.

He has been in the top three for key passes and assists for 3 seasons in League 1.

Not Zidane, but a very good L1 footballer who unfortunately doesn't suit our style of play.

Not a backlash, but disappointment it hasn't worked out

Good player, wrong team. A very odd recruit at the time as didn't really fit into what we were trying to achieve.

I think people have been pretty measured about his quality. People do seem very happy to stockpile players though?

Personally I'd rather concentrate what resources we have on 20 first team outfielders (with a couple who can play multiple positions), rather than spread our wage bill across 25/30. A high average wage across fewer players is ultimately likelier to mean a good first team.

And how many of those 15 or so games has he actually played in the position where was one of the best in the league last season?

The answer is certainly more than zero, and he didn't have great games playing there. But yes, one of the oddities of Cook's kid-in-a-sweet shop spree was that if you can have whatever square pegs you want, why then put them in round holes?

So why did three different Ipswich managers not play him and no top 6 League One side wants to buy him? Classic case of Ipswich players are better when injured or just sold.
