Cameron Archer - Quite an achievement

[s4-blade]

In a season where we have signed Traore, Larouchi, Thomas and Grbic, Cameron Archer has managed to be the worst of the lot.

A simply pathetic and embarrassing performance from him today today - worst I’ve ever seen from a forward. Lazy, slow, getting drawn into the ball and cramping the room we have to play, complete lack of movement in the box, not hitting space, not making an effort at the back post, not challenging for loose balls, not closing down, terrible in possession losing it every time. Completely disinterested.

Don’t let the fucking door hit you on your way out

 

[Caseh]

At some point we have to start asking why we sign these players that have looked decent elsewhere, then come here and are awful?

Yet Carrick managed to get a tune out of him

 

[Solihull Blade]

Disagree. Hes missed 2 sitters but he got in the position to miss em. Thought he was ok.

Maybe they aren’t the issue..

Watch him off the ball. Kills every attack by getting drawn into the ball and then stands like a statue. Does absolutely fuck all when we don’t have it

 

[Half Bond Jls]

He's the least of our worries. Bread stick man defense is the shit show.

 

[steve26272]

He’s going back to Villa, won’t get a sniff there, will have to go out on loan

Clearly be arsed, and doesn’t want to get injured which is understandable

Fodders gets dropped as won’t be here next season - fair enough

Why is archer on the pitch is the question?

That doesn’t make any sense at all unless you’ve got a word or two mixed up?

 

[CornwallBlade]

Also, greedy as. He gets in great positions put others in but nearly always takes a shot. Not one for us next season

 

[Caseh]

It does make sense. They look decent when they play for other teams, but look awful when they play for us.

 

[Millhousesblade1889]

But you compared him to being worse than Grbic & Traore….please explain your thinking there.

 

[vivast123]

Same as every other striker we’ve got. Can create chances but not good enough to finish them

 

[Nelson1889]

Back on loan in championship next season and destined to stay there forever.

The type of player that scored in youth leagues for fun by shit lining but put him in a team where he has to work and he's found out.

You lost me at Grbic not being the worst of the lot.

Think before you post.

 

[William Large]

Yet Carrick managed to get a tune out of him

Because they weren’t getting hammered every week, he was playing against substantially worse defenders and didn’t have to dig in and show down bollocks.

 

[Iffy Onuora's Shiny Head]

Another play we splash loads of money on (see Brewster and Mcburnie) based on a 15 game hot streak in the divion below which VASTLY inflated all their values

 

[Willglynning]

There’s clearly something going wrong in the recruitment process that’s happened semi-recently.

Outside of BBD none of the signings we’ve made this season have worked out in any tangible capacity (McAtee exempt). I don’t think we’re scouting players correctly and we’re not signing people appropriate for the systems we’re playing in.

The standout nonsense signing that started this all for me is Zivkovic (going back a bit). Yeah he was a wonderkid on FM15, but are you telling me we were actively scouting the Chinese league prior to signing him?

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

Embarrassing refusal to use his left foot. Should have scored 2. Did fuck all else. Should have been off at half time

Yet.... he'd be excellent in the Championship. But he doesn't seem arsed, so neither am I

 

[blades78]

We looked a weaker side when Archer went off.
Why not include Mcatee? He's performances and workrate have been horrific for months

 

[cahill]

Agreed and also maybe with a better manager

This.

He’s out of form for sure, but it was always the case that he needs some creativity around him. A strikers shouldn’t be having to run around all day doing doggies while opponents run circles around you.
His job is to be on the end of chances.

Not seen the game today but if he’s missed chances that’s normal, all strikers go through those patches. And playing at the lane is hardly a place of positivity and confidence is it!
Would be very surprised if he doesn’t find scoring form again, likely elsewhere of course as he won’t be back.
If I’m honest I don’t think he ever really wanted to be with us, it’s just we were the only takers from the premier league where he might get a game.

 

[jt64]

He was OK today, nothing more, nothing less. Doesn't add to the count of good games he's had for us, and I doubt I have to start using the second half of one hand to count those before he thankfully fucks off back to Villa

 

[Wards]

Could've had 4 today but I don't think he's an especially bad egg like some of the others. Looks and sounds as thick as mince and I don't think he holds any affection to us as fans or as a club but there's been much worse players this season.

 

[Eza Blade]

Absolute shite. Grbic is fucking terrible and you’re saying he’s worse. Lots of big fucking swinging bollocks

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

If we're really going to have a debate on who are worst player has been this season it could be a long thread.

Just did a count up in my head and Archer didn't even make my top ten.

 

[mancunianblade]

It does make sense. They look decent when they play for other teams, but look awful when they play for us.

Which is true it’s just your wording was as such that we should ask why we sign them and not the real question which is we should ask why they’re good until we sign them. The one constant is Sheffield United some how somewhere we are the problem.
