Based on what's been seen of him so far, Jamilu Collins doesn't contribute much in an attacking sense, Goutas and McGuinness only contribute from an attacking viewpoint from set pieces and Siopis (who's scored just twice in over three hundred career appearances) does not offer much going forward. The notion that any one of these (especially Collins as the only specialist left back we have currently) be left out because they don't score enough goals is ludicrous and yet, using Bulut's argument regarding Robinson and Colwill, isn't that what he should be doing?
