Heard a story today that Potter asked him to rest instead of going on International duty, after missing games through illness.
He hasn't had much game time since, so could well be true. |  |

Dont blame him wanting to play for his country
Only if he was 100% though |  | | |

Or maybe Potter has noticed that we play better football without Oli in the side.
Never gets credit for his good decisions does Graham. Always some sinister plot going on behind the scenes. |  | | |

Agree Ed. Should always play if fit. | |

It is obvious we can play with three forwards all interchanging and pulling defences all over the place. But does McBurnie fit into that pattern?
Maybe he just needs time to charge the batteries and Potter sees we can win games with Dyer, Rutledge and James.
Noticeable today how often Dyer and Rutledge made runs that created space or took their midfield's attention away from Celina, Grimes and James.
Won't happen every game but when it does it is a thing of beauty. |  |

McBurnie struggles to lead a line and wants to play in spaces Celina takes up (and Dyer sometimes coming in from the right). He's the square peg of the bunch, unfortunately. Potter has had issues all season trying to accommodate him in a way that gets the best out of everyone, and finally looks to have (maybe) given up.
No more DJ and Bersant starting on opposite flanks, hopefully. Keep them close together. But I'm sure Oli will get games given the tight schedule we have remaining. | | | |

Agreed.
It would be different if he was a presence in the air as Llorente was but he isn't.
I think I referred to him disparagingly as an excitable puppy, always trying to be in everyone else position all of he time.
16 goals, possibly 20 by the end of the season, is outstanding but are they scored at the cost of more goals from elsewhere?
6 goals in the last two games from 5 different players! | |

Socks likes to come deep and get involved in the game rather than do what Jason Scotland used to do and just lead the line without doing much running around. Hes definitely not a 10 so really needs to learn more discipline on the front man aspect of his game. Theres a great player there if he can learn it tho |  |

Maybe McBurnie needs to get out of The Valley in Bishopston... the silly boy thinks late night alcohol is a good source of rehydration 😂 |  |

Sounds another Andre Ayew, who although scored quite a few never fitted with the team, main reason I couldn't believe we were re-signing him. |  |

I've been highly critical of our poor movement off the ball for the last few seasons including this one and have always seen it as the root cause of our slow ponderous attacking play but against Boro, it was our fantastic movement of the front 3 that completely flummoxed their defenders and they just couldn't cope with it. After 5 minutes, I said to my bro that one of James, Dyer or Routledge was going to be flattened in the box before long and so it proved. [Post edited 10 Apr 2019 7:05]

Agree totally. It was slightly similar to the Routs, Dyer and P. Hernandez style under Laudrup.
Although Ollie's practically our only out-and-out striker, I do wonder if we're better without him. | |

I'd like to see Astro given some more game time, if he could build a little form coming on towards the end of a game maybe with McBurnie could have a big impact. | |

I bet Astro is a heavenly player on form. |  | | |
