Every time he got the ball today he was surrounded by 3 or 4 players.

Which means that there were 2 or 3 of our players in space, it is a pity they didn't make more of it.

It comes to something when the crowd is baying for him to come on to change things. That is where we are at the moment unfortunately

Maybe that's all he's got

Maybe he should have moved a touch, instead of just waiting for it to fall at his feet

He did head the ball twice today mind and both times was funny as f*ck.

I agree with the OP though.

He's got to trust his instincts. Run at people with the ball and shoot!

Saying that, judging by his crosses he'd probably hit the corner flag

All he has is pace, he can't tackle nor head the ball if he's in defensive mode, his vertical 30 yard clearance proved that today. When he goes forward he's exciting for sure but we need to play to his strengths and if the last 2 games show us, perhaps he should start, at least for the first half we've been competitive.

Sell

Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

His vertical clearance resulted in the penalty. He should have sent it "down town".

Don't understand the love in for him really, he just runs. Scored 1 goal for us.. how many assists? Very few I bet.

Last year defo just a pigeon chaser. But ....this year i think he has improved but needs to show it by starting every home game with Montero on the other flank. Keep not sell. Go Mo. YJB.

You were doing so well till the last sentence.
Barrow is SHITE. Plain and simple.
as soon as he comes on we seem to forget how to play football and just become a hoof ball team lumping it forward in his general direction.
If and it's a big if, he gets away from his man it's the same old thing, head down and run. He fails to look up and see what options are there just heads for the byline and inevitably looses possession.

People slag Routledge off, but if he's classed as not being premier league quality, God only knows what level Barrow is... League 1 at best is my feeling!

I honestly believe that he does make a difference when he terrorises a defence apart from that all bet's are off.

"as soon as he comes on we seem to forget how to play football and just become a hoof ball team lumping it forward in his general direction. "

Has it ever crossed your mind that the reason that it happens is because the rest of the team are too knackered and devoid of attacking ideas that he is the only attacking option at that stage?
You cannot blame him for what the rest of the team do when he comes on.
He is the only Winger with an assist this season, so what level does that make him compared to the others?

Only winger with an assist this year? Never realised that......Holy sh#t!.... What a shocking statistic bearing in mind that's bread n' butter stuff for wing play and an expected requirement also.

Sorry, that should be this season, not this year, I have corrected it.

You can't blame him for what other players do, but you can blame him for us losing our shape when he comes on. He is pure pace, very little else. We have to change the way we play to accommodate him.

Yes it certainly has, but .....

1. He is simply no where near good enough to do the job expected of him.
2. Therefore blame Jenkins for the shambolic player acquisition over the last 3 or 4 windows.

No need to apologise I took it as meaning this season anyhow. Wing play with genuine impact that seriously worries and affects the opposition along with the outcome of games is required ASAP.

That is more to the point. Not really fair to blame Barrow, or Routledge, or Naughton or whoever else. We simply should have better players in our squad

I thought he made a difference today when he came on and barring the shocking attempted clearance thought he did quite well

Unfortunately we should be asking more of someone with that pace to just make a difference. He should be a constant threat game in game out and he's not

This is Patches O'Houlihan saying "Take care of your balls, and they'll take care of you."
