Uche

He’s a handful and as a defender you wouldn’t fancy him coming on with 20 to go after you’ve been battling with Hugill all game.

But I thought everyone accepted he is really poor? That’s not even a dig really but from his first game at the CCS it has the Eddie Johnson feel too it, people singing his name constantly, a few people laughing every time he brought it down or gave it away.

We’re safe now so it’s all pretty harmless giving him 20 mins and I think every person is behind him doing something great but his goals record makes sense when you look at yesterday’s performance.

We won’t sign him and I’d be surprised if anyone would want us too but he gives his all so I hope he does well wherever he ends up and I hope we get to celebrate a few more goals from him this season.

Think he got a bit carried away yesterday but even the fans seemed to be frustrated a bit by the end after cheering every touch for the previous 20.

This much I knew already. I made no comments as regards Ikpeazu's abilities or lack of them. I merely stated a fact.

I'm glad you had a lovely day, though.

:thumbup:

He looked like a fan who’d won the ‘Be A Player For The Day’ raffle yesterday. Strange how when he had the ball at his feet he backed so far back into the defender, leaving the ball where it was so when he attempted to lay it off it became a useless toe poke because he was too far away from the ball. Mark Harris looked a footballer when he came on, Uche was, unfortunately, a frustrating hindrance, I’d have been annoyed playing alongside him. Made me laugh one time though when he was up and running away before he was even fouled, how did he do that?:hehe:

...and that was the tackle I was on about. It was in one movement. Never seen anything like it.

You've described his performance yesterday beautifully.

I'd say this dramatic little mini meltdown is a better example of moaning than me saying a player is a bit shit on a Cardiff City messageboard :hehe:

I can't believe how precious some people being at the suggestion that journeyman striker Uche Ikpeazu isn't very good :hehe:

I honestly thought we all accepted he's not great and that's part of his charm? Do people actually rate the guy as a footballer?

Honestly, you'd think I started a petition to get him out of the club or organized a mass booing every time he warms up. Some very sensitive souls on here :hehe:

I enjoyed the thread last night when I went on a mad reply spree. The fella keeping scores on who disagreed with you was my favourite contributee.

Agreed, I liked the bit where he called me a hypocrite for not rating Uche but still supporting him, although he's going to lose it when he finds out where I think we rank in the the greatest team in football the world has ever seen list

What a post :hehe:

He is really a league one or even league two striker who would look good at that level. He is suffering from playing at least one or two levels above his natural ability and it shows. it’s called Omar Bogle syndrome. Warnock stupidly overpaid for him presumably on the basis of having the option of having a big lump up front but he doesn’t hack it at this level. Useful for bringing on for the last twenty minutes if you are lumping the ball into the box but not in the long term. Would rather pay a bit of money for Hugill who is a much more rounded player.

How dare you burst my f*cking bubble, don’t forget I know where you live:furious::furious::furious:

Let’s be fair, he backed in to defenders so much it’s a wonder a couple haven’t been arrested for attempted buggery.

The fella has scored two goals in maybe four bit part appearances he's been an important part of the squad that's slowly moving away from relegation.
He won't dazzle fans with his flair but what he will do is come on the last twenty minutes or so and battle for the team and make space for others.
I'm not comparing quality of the two players but what i liked about him yesterday was he fouled a few times but got straight up and went about his business knowing time was running out unlike Moore who would have stayed sitting down wasting our own time.
He may nick the odd goal here and there and although we seem to be moving towards a more footballing type side i think we still need his type of player in the squad.

Pretty much. Very good players like to sign for very good teams. I'm sure Morison would sign Doyle and Drameh in a heartbeat. But he won't because he can't.

His problem yesterday was that he didn’t make space or bring others into play, the times he attempted to pass to a teammate he sold them short with poor balls that were easily intercepted.

It wasn't very nice thread to post he's one of us.
I hope your happy now that you have caused a divide by splitting the fanbase.

I agree about yesterday but the previous games he's done well and nobody made threads saying he was shit then..

Stan, more than one person in the thread has pointed out his strengths. We get it.

It's great he's scored goals as well, that wasn't being questioned either was it? Or that
he's a fan favourite? Or he tries hard etc etc.

He didn't do his job yesterday, two massive chances to affect the game in a positive way and he ultimately didn't deliver. I agree he isn't always going to deliver, no player gets 100 percent of things right, but he'd done the hard work winning the ball. He needed to lay it off.

Vaulks was slammed in the match thread and ran his arse off, wasn't that bad, yet people feels comfortable having a pop at him, yet it seems we can't discuss Uche and what he did wrong because, why?


(This isn't arguing fans, it's discussing)

Over a 100 replies, 6 pages and I applaud the 3 posters who used his surname :hehe:

I like him, he's not going to suddenly turn into a skilful player, but he gives us an option if we are chasing a goal at the end of a game.
He's very strong and some defenders just cannot deal with that.
