    Calum Robinson

    In the news ( probably false ) that we would listen to offers for Robinson especially as he signed a lengthy contract. For me he rarely gives 100% and been a disaster last season! Even the Irish fans are now questioning why he’s in their squad as a compete non entity!

    Get rid as another passenger and why the hell was he given a lengthy contract! One good game in every eight! I am surprised Phillips is not on his bike too as another one along with Zohore and Livermore!

    Surely Bruce must see this?

    I don’t know what he brings or has brought to the club since he signed. Poor touch, poor pass, terrible in the air, no power, no speed, not a great winger and he’s a poor striker.

    Starting to sulk around a bit now. Get him gone.

    The annoying thing is he has the technique and ability, but can't be arsed most of the time.
    Remember his goals when we put five past Chelsea at the bridge? They were first class. But he puts in a performance like that every couple of months.
    The trouble with our players

    Is that they have become too comfortable because our managers don't give youth a chance even when there is nothing left to play for.

    I agree mostly, but he does have a bit of vision and his finishing can be okay at times. I did read a stat towards the end of the season he had the most assists last year.

    But I do agree that his main weaknesses are that he is slow and has no strength. He is far too casual and laid back also, not what you want to see in games you are chasing a goal which no doubt antagonises the fans, I think overall its best he moves on.

    I do sometimes just wonder if we got him on the weights and he started working harder in games, putting in the hard yards - maybe moving his position to an attacking midfielder - whether he could do a job. A lot of ifs and buts but still, a thought nonetheless..

    Can’t disagree and only a league 1 club would show interest in this lot! Then again on their huge wages and lengthy contracts they would just laugh!

    Didn't we just swap Robinson for Burke? If so the deal ain't so bad as he is an improvement on him, but still a disappointment overall.

    Can we not swap Zohore for a donkey as this would be another improvement!
