McBurnie injury

To paraphrase everyone's second favorite Brexiteer,

"When I suggested playing John Egan up front you all laughed. Well, you're not laughing now are you?"

😉🤦‍♂️
 
Dear @EFL, how are we doing with that integrity thing? Only we've got all 6 senior strikers unavailable. So, are we still doing it or what?

Asking for 27,500 friends...

😁
 
Looking at the amount of actual minutes he's played, it's not even 12 games worth. Which, while still not what we're wanting, is required in context of "full season without a league goal". If he'd played 3k+ minutes, then you might have a point
Iv defended him more than enough he's a bust flush bag of wank lanky twat. That's it.
 
Is he out of contract? My god what a disaster of a season. I know he’s had injuries but he’s played enough minutes to get a goal. Embarrassed for him.
 
Blessing in disguise IMO, we played better with a midfielder up front last game. If Billy's even 50% fit he at least offers us a chance.

Nothing against him as a bloke, it just doesn't work with him playing up front for us, I'd be tempted to make him available on a free transfer to get him off the wage bill
 
He's out for months with his injury apparently. Might not see him in a blades shirt again.

This could be one of those lucky omens.

I still believe one of the main reasons tht we got promoted to the top flight under Bassett was that John Gannon broke his arm.

He was playing crap and still getting picked and then he was out.

Maybe instead of flogging the McBurnie horse, he rests up, puts his issues behind him and goes again for his final year and moves on.

Certainly N'Diaye has looked more like scoring in two games than McBurnie had all season.

Just write this one off and hopefully N'Diaye, Gibbs-White and Sharp stay fit for the remainder with Osula and Jebbo in reserve to rest them.

N'Diaye has 4 in the league this season which is not exactly prolific but he links up really well with MGW and makes him play better. He adds much more to the team than say McBurnie or brewster.

I'd be tempted to go with those two behind sharp for the rest of the season, those two buzzing about causing havoc for defences would free up space which sharp knows how to exploit, probably be my first choice forward line if everyone was fit.

4 in 1,722 minutes so 1 every 5, which isn't ideal for a striker but he's not been playing up front he's been playing more in a no 10 or attacking midfield role.

If you pick N'Diaye, who do you drop when they are all fit? Assuming 3 at the back, who drops out? Fleck, Berge or Norwood? One would have to sit out if Gibbs-White and N'Diaye supported Sharp.

Personally I'd just rotate those 3. Start with Sharp and Gibbs-White and then bring N'Diaye on as my first sub, be there for Sharp or Gibbs-White or one of the midfield.
 
Mitrovic has scored 40 goals so far this season but only scored 4 last year in the PL.

Blaming the manager for a striker not scoring goals is sometimes missing the point.
Who's blaming the manager? I'm blaming McBurnie for not being very good at scoring goals, no one else.

Berge would drop out for me... when hes on form he's unplayable but he has one great game every 5 matches, the other games he either drifts in and out of the games or is a liability.

Ndiaye offers far more than berge defensively and works much harder without the ball
