Although in that case it still makes no sense Colwill was given a contract, I don't think he was showing Bulut something in preseason that he isn't now.
But it is odd that he seems to roll out Ugbo and Grant every game in that case. After his early season goal scoring "exploits" Ugbo basically contributes nothing on either end, and yet twice he's been the player he turns to when he's not happy with the effort Tanner has put in. It basically feels like we play with 10 with Ugbo on the pitch, and yet I guess he runs around enough for Bulut to feel like he's trying? You could say the same about Grant, he's had a couple good games but other than that he's mostly anonymous. Seems very much like it's one standard for one set of players and one for another... as noted I'd much rather see a player like Robinson who has the quality at this level given a chance than one like Ugbo who quite clearly so far doesn't.
