wouldn't mind a rewrite of that song from a year or so ago about Jeffrey loving a seven up to the agadoo tune (if I remember right) - maybe change sometimes he's fkin s***e to loves a sprite seeing as he's doing ok (although he drives me mad with his jogging around and weak tackling)- spomething like this from memory

It says a lot about the sorry state of football that a player of his ability goes for £10m. He can’t pass, his first touch is appalling and he goes missing time and time again when we lose the ball- often because of him. I’m astounded that anyone can’t see that Max is pure class- he’s the complete antithesis of Schlupp. Never gives the ball away, always available for a pass, probably the best touch in the club. Meyer is pure class and we were very lucky to get him. If he gets game time he won’t be with us in two years, it’s that simple for me

Caught dawdling on the ball, robbed and makes no effort to get back and cover, instead berates the ref! Very poor.

I agree with everything except Schlupp has pace, power and energy far exceeding Meyer's. He also has a simple policy. Get in the box and whack it at goal as hard as possible. No f***ing about with any clever passing nonsense. In the position he's now in, and with his ability to do this quite well, that's potentially a goal every 3 or 4 games. That might keep us up.

Meyer is a fantastic footballer, don't get me wrong. And better than Schlupp in every way you describe. But Schlupp aggressively closes space, pressures the opposition, and generally has qualities (that I think he's very aware of).

Part of me wonders if Kouyate, Schlupp and Meyer wouldn't work quite well. Harsh on our brilliant captain, mind, and I'm more thinking out loud than advocating it. It would be more mobile.

It's nice to have competition for places at last, five players (all with slightly different qualities) competing for three midfield places.

I agree that Meyer is the 'classiest' of the five but class isn't everything - pace, energy, strength (in the air and in the tackle) are important qualities too.

Schlupp has done well recently and seems to be ahead of Meyer in the pecking order at the moment. I do like Meyer as a player but I can understand why he isn't starting on a regular basis.

up until recently I have found Sclupp fairly average,I agree he has improved in recent games which has been great for us, however, I may be the only one who sees this but in my mind Schlupp is a striker waiting to happen.

He's very fast and has an eye for goal. Believe he started life as s prolific youth striker.

I would like to see him play up front in a 442 formation.. he's already scored more goals this season than all the centre forwards put together. Not saying he should start but could be a useful 3rd or 4th choice striker who may be able to get into double figures.

Er - sorry to go against the grain here, but don't forget that James Tomkins scored with a rather splendid header from a corner at Anfield recently, so it's not exactly like we never score from corners. Doesn't happen often though.....! With the size and physical prowess of all our centre backs (Sakho/Tomkins/Dann) + Tekkers of course, it's a source of bemusement that we are so ineffective with those set pieces. Same with free kicks of course..

A stat from may 2017 I saw reported we'd scored eight goals from 194 corners, 4.1 %. It did not report on goals conceded from break away's due to them.

Rarely any movement - surprised we are not more imaginative at set pieces.

Why is it so difficult for us to develop some set piece and corner routines.

Especially short corners lot of scope there.

Not sure he deserves all the flack that some Holers dish out in his direction.He can play for the whole match which I don't think Meyer is capable of at the moment, both are guilty of lapses of various kinds, he may not be so creative but he is tenacious and that is probably why he gets the nod in midfield, he also pops up in the right place to score goals on a fairly regular basis.

Good post, I think Schlupp has 5 goals now, and in certain matches can be really effective. Concerning Meyer, McArthur seems more at risk of losing his starting position than Schlupp

Obviously not now that we've got Michy and Christian, but on those days when we played Andros and Wilf up top I honestly think we should've tried playing Schluppy up front. Ray Lewington even said that he and Hodgson considered it. He's got tremendous pace and a hell of a finish. Thoughts?

I'm sure he has sort if done that hasn't he? struggled a bit with his back to goal and movement was what you'd expect from a player out of position.

or am I losing my remaining marbles?

Schlupp has a real dig in that left foot, bit like Sako in that respect.

Schlupp up front sounds good to me.

Actually he would do a job just about anywhere.
