Interesting Robertson update

Would love to see him slotted into a #8 role, one of our standouts from last season and deserves the chance. Glad BBM seems to have finally broke the ambiguity around him and we got a positive update.

Also Fish dealing with a minor knee issue and may be a Saturday doubt, but Lawlor looking good.

Standout, really? Not sure I would agree with that.

BBM said..." he could play a big part in this season once he reaches the levels I know he can." So, after all this time, he's still not at the required level of intensity?

Re: Interesting Robertson update

I don't mind this approach if it gets the bst out of him in the long run.
We've had managers in the past pushing Rubin Colwill to do more in certain areas and things like his work rate etc have increased massively

Nobody stood out last season. We finished bottom of the league and were relegated. Robertson had a few decent games but he wasn't consistent. The last goal he scored was on 1st January.

Fair enough nobody covered themselves in glory, but at the end of last season I think most would have had Robertson ahead of Joel Colwill, David Turnbull and Ryan Wintle abd suddenly he finds himself behind them all - probably Eli King too if he hadn't have been injured. Even Mafico can get a game but Robertson can't.

That said them manager obviously knows what he wants from the players. I'd rather he sets a high standard than let people in on reputation.

Re: Interesting Robertson update

Hasn't BBM said he sees him as a 6.

He was a disappointment last season but he could thrive in the League below.

Hes got to offer more than Turnbull who is just making too many easy sideways and backpasses.

Me too. I have no problem with BBM's approach at all. Let's face it, if Robertson hasn't been doing enough in training to put himself ahead of the likes of Wintle and Turnbull in particular, then he's not going to be much use to us anyway.

With Riza, that's like expecting the economy to perform well under Rachel and Kier.

Judging by his attempts to keep things low-key in the full interview, it sounds like he's nearing a return. He looks to have trained well. I anticipate we'll see him get some minutes this weekend, most likely as a sub, though a starting spot isn't entirely out of the question.

Doesnt ound to me like he's planning to give him game time this week, but at least it may be getting closer

I may be reading too much into the body language; time will tell. I'd expect him on the bench at least soon, maybe Wrexham?

Re: Interesting Robertson update

As you clearly don't rate Riza, I'm not saying I do, wouldn't Kwasi and Liz be a better comparison?

I say that relatively speaking. He was a positive for our first half of the season.
