My first minor criticism of Wilder is that our bench recently has had very little in terms of players who can change the game on it. I know we are short of players at the minute, but surely yesterday Hanson and Thomas should of been on there as 2 different options. Donaldson and Lavery are basically shitter clones of Clarke and Sharp, and that prevents us from having a plan b. Like I say minor criticism, and I have every faith in Wilder to find a solution to the dip we are experiencing. January will be very interesting one way or the other.

Can’t understand why Thomas hasn’t had a place on the bench. Would have been the only player yesterday who I would have looked at who could change a game, without Brooks or Duffy.
Why keep Lafferty on the bench, when Thomas can cover that position
 
I thought Slater looked a good prospect when he came on yesterday and much better than Carruthers!
 
Need that pacey striker. I’d rather have Hanson than Donaldson on the bench currently as at least he wins everything in the air.
 
When I saw Thomas warming up on the pitch, before the game started, I thought he was going to be on the bench. Shame he wasn't, not the finished article but he has plenty of pace and he has an absolute rocket of a shot. If we want players to shoot from outside the box then he would be a good option.
 
It’s strange that Thomas can’t get a slot on the bench, I really like the look of him, he’s something different to the rest of the squad and would’ve been perfect for yesterday’s inept performance.
 
Not used effectively in my opinion....
 
Not seen enough of Devante Cole to have any real opinion of him, but he sounds like he ticks the same boxes as Thomas.......
 
Thomas seems to be a player out of the same mould as Duffy & Brooks. The former rarely lasts more than an hour, the latter rarely comes on for more than half an hour. Thomas not at all. Maybe CW is not a fan of this type of player.
 
We are desperate for a striker with pace, a wide man with a trick and the ability to go past people which gives us something different when plan A is not working, at least one centre Midfielder which hopefully isn’t Ryan Leonard personally I’d love to see Charlie Adam come in on loan until the end of season
 
The lack of options on the bench is more the fault of the backing or lack of it in the summer than down to the manager.

What’s Thomas playing like for U23’s ? If he is not doing it for them then you can understand him not featuring in the first team..
