He doesnt fit the system at all
If Rodrigo is the answer I shudder to think what the question is

Tbf a few key players are out but just shows the impact it has.

Without raph there's very little creativity.

Without Dallas in the middle we struggle.

Without KP we fall apart!

No Costa, Cooper, Rodrigo coming back from injury etc.

No excuses for this shower of crap though
Plus Brighton are a bunch of big donkeys that should have been easy meat for us

We have now lost seven of the nine games Kalvin has missed this year.

Squad has huge issues imo.

We need 4 or 5 Raph quality players really to progress.

Promotion momentum can take you so far 1st season but 2nd season is a different thing all together.

The club have to be very careful this summer.

To be fair, he looked a class above when he was fit. Watch him go next season after a proper pre-season.

It would be the same question if Harrison, Alioski, Roberts and Klich is the answer.

Not good enough mate.

He cant play as a lone striker (he hever has) and he doesnt work as the 8/10 that we use.

He is a second striker and we dont use that.

They are a good side and if they had a top striker they’d be up with us, definitely.
We were poor but they out-Leeds us over two games.

Looked very much like a midtable Championship side. Without Phillips and Rapha we offer practically nothing. We need to look to the summer now to bring in some much needed quality, and offload the likes of Alio, Klich, Roberts and Poveda to start with.

I was shocked when he replaced Paddy; I'd have thought it would have been Roberts.
