Dijksteel, O'Brien, Thomas, Silvera

We’ve just gone 9 games unbeaten with those in and around the team.

Anything can happen.

Dijksteels barely had a kick.
Thomas in and out, been poor to average at best.
Silvera is a bench player and will be throughout his career here until he’s inevitably sold.
O’Brien has played a big part in the run without being spectacular. He is the one where there is hope he could turn out to be the player we thought we were signing. Next season who knows what will happen with him. It’s a tough one.

You know deep down realistically we need much better starters than this lot. And we should get that.
 
thought VdB was the worst player tonight
he looks slow and weak
surprised he gets away with so much
if it was Fry he'd be destroyed on here

We already have better starters. They are just injured.

I thought Dieng was the worst player followed by Dijksteel then rvb. The whole defence was poor. They didn't get a lot of cover and the midfield were giving it away for fun.
 
Said it on here repeatedly, Dijksteel lacks the application, concentration and nastiness to be a championship level defender. He does really basic defending wrong. Look at his body shape on the photo still of the "offside" goal doing the rounds, square in and ball watching.

I really do despair when people on here put his case forward as an option for RB. Madness
 
Yeah, I thought O'Brien played well. Thomas was ok and played a big part in the 1st goal but some (again) have made their mind up early and that's that as far as they are concerned. Dijksteel was rusty (surprised he played) and might be the last time we see him. Silvera was Silvera, capable of excellence but quiet for large parts (not too dissimilar to Greenwood in that respect)
 
I actually thought O'Brien had a good game. Often looked to carry the ball forward and made some good overlapping runs down the line.

Djiksteel looked rusty and Thomas didn't do much wrong but also didn't have much of an impact on the game either.

Silvera needs loaning out in the summer.
 
O’Brien didn’t have that bad of a game. Shouldn’t be in the same discussion as Dijk and Thomas.

Silvera offers nothing. Greenwood will be back in on Saturday. And it says something when Greenwood walks straight back in the team.
 
Unpopular opinion, but I don’t mind Greenwood. There’s definitely a player in there and if we can get him doing what he did at the SOL then he’ll be a good player for us. That is if we end up signing him of course. People forget that he’s still only 22 and Carrick obviously sees something in him.
 
Thomas is just awful. Amazed how many on here put him ahead of Engel.Terrible waste of a loan signing. I really like Djiksteel but he was dreadful tonight. Lost his confidence and looks a shadow of the player we signed. Silvera is young but doesn’t seem to know what he is supposed to be doing in our system. Very lightweight and ineffective.
I have way more confidence in O’Brien than Barlaser and would be happy to see O’Brien offered a contract in the summer.
 
I'd be loaning out Silvera to League One, I think he's a player who could still come good, and his confidence might grow with a season or half a season against weaker opposition.

He's had some great moments for us, even with his struggles this season.
