You ended up with that faulty batch of Viagra?

I rate bowler. He's one of our most creative payers. Having someone decent in front of him would probably make a huge difference.
Has some patchy form but overall , a successful loan him. One of the better loan players we have had. Scored some
Important goals
I’d say the reaction when it was announced that we were signing Bowler was a positive one overall, but my view at the end of his time with us is that his stay at City is a very strong argument against the concept of inverted wingers. I can remember Bulut saying at the time we signed him that Bowler was one of the best around at this level at the skill which I still call dribbling, but now gets called things like travelling with the ball. It seems odd therefore that he’s been played in a way that tends to negate these skills because he’s always tending to run into traffic when being played on the right.
There have been isolated instances where playing Bowler on what I feel is the wrong side of the pitch has worked, Watford away for example, but nowhere near enough of them to justify that decision I would argue. Another thing Bulut said about Bowler during the season is that he’s a player whose head can drop when things aren’t going well for him - I feel playing him on the right could have been a contributory factor to that happening at times.
"hairnet"?
Who is this right-winger we have... Ena Sharples?
Ena Sharples would be a better option than bottler Bowler"hairnet"?

You normally post some really interesting, insightful posts on, playing styles, formations, players strengths and weaknesses.
I always look out for your contribution to a football subject.
If I was the manager of the Message Board, we’d be having that Friday morning conversation unfortunately.
“Son, you’re good, and I’ve got a lot of confidence in you “
But I think you need to sit on the bench tomorrow, I know it’s hard, but you’ll bounce back 🤣
Or joint 3rd in goals scored (4) and joint 8th for assists (1). Of the 31 assists created by players this season, Bowler has managed just 1. I presume you don't get assist credits for own goals.
Bowler has scored four goals this season. He’s apparently useless. O’Dowda scored three goals last season. He’s apparently a quality player who has been much missed this season.
I find him gutless and his performance at the Liberty was unforgivable. Putting maximum effort in should be a given as a professional footballer. He wasn’t the only one that day though.
I dare say he’s better than he’s looked here and that’s probably down to the set up and the fact we’ve got no real creativity in centre midifeld to get our wingers on the front foot. However, even when he has got the fullback 1 on 1 he will often take the easy option and go back to the full back.
A move that really boils my piss. Far too many forwards and wingers do this these days, I absolutely hate it. Great if you’re laying the ball back to someone like Trent Alexander Arnold to whip the ball into the box but more often than not it’s just passed back to a lesser technical player who either ****s it up or goes back to the centre half who gives it to the other centre half, then the other fullback.etc
This obsession with coaches keeping possession rather than trying to make something happen is killing the game for me as a spectacle. One of the reasons i watch more non league football these days
Fair enough
Yeah, a season at left back will do that to you.Thank god we didn't have to rely on Bowler at left back this season
