I'm not sure what we had in mind for Bobby when we bought him.
I wonder if the wurzels might try to buy him back on the cheap in the summer (assuming we go down)?
I can understand Lee Tomlin not being picked as a number ten last season because of his lack of a defensive contribution given the way our manager thinks, but Reid always puts a good shift in when we don't have the ball, so I don't think that can be the reason for him being left out so much.
Warnock has come out and admitted that it is, in fact, Camarasa who's keeping him out the team. Rightly so, too. Reid isn't a striker.

I can’t see why we can’t have a midfield 2 of Camarasa and Gunnar with Reid “in the hole” just in front of them.Quote:

Effectively two forward thinking central midfielders, two of them would have to hold or we'd be ****ed. Camarasa dabbles in defending, i couldn't see Warnock going with that.Quote:

I guess in a “do or die” match tomorrow I can understand why no change of style or tactics, however,my main worry is if Warnock stays we will go into the Championship as a battling defensive side, just like we are today.Quote:

Why we have to have a big target man is beyond me. Many top sides have turned their back on this to have more ability to use pace and movement to create chances and score goals.
We need a manager with a more modern approach
When we signed Tomlinson Warnock said that at last we had the number 10 we had been missing.Quote:

I don’t believe Warnock sees the value of the position and would prefer added defensive players
I think Warnock expects too much from nos 10's we sign , Reid has indeed not been given more chances, my guess is we play more on caution than risk .
Play him in the next two games along with Murphy and give them freedom to express themselves, we got bugger else to do .
What play two lightweight "luxury" players with no premiership experience?Quote:

One step beyond in fact.
