Big Mo must have recovered from his injury quickly then

On Faal’s latest loan move, manager Phil Parkinson said: “Mo picked up an injury at the end of his loan at Port Vale but we’re hopeful that he’ll be fit for the closing weeks of the season, and in that circumstance will be able to get some vital experience with Cheltenham.”

What a strange transfer 😄 

 

Could have done with Gray months ago instead of that lazy sack of <ovf censored> Devante Cole!

Well, that's not going to help Cheltenham in any shape or form if he's only going to be available for the last few weeks of the season.

He wasn’t lazy

Gray will bring lots of experience. Fair play.

Lets just hope we can win those 2 games then before he comes in,then we can kick on from there hopefully

I guess it puts to bed the theory that Brady wouldn't be able to bring the bigger name players here as well

Not really.

Lets see what the squad looks like in August before you can say things like that

I'm not aiming this personally at you but Vale fans have an historical penchant for favouring workrate over ability. It's why players like Constantine and even Byers at the moment are not rated because they don't run around like a loon. I thought Gabriel had 2 or 3 really good games in a row once he'd settled and got up to full fitness..he had a great game at Wimbledon. He's probably not up to full fitness after being out for nearly 4 months and perhaps isn't quite committing yet to everything.

To move forwards, we need players with quality on the ball and Gabriel is far superior to Mitch. Effort and workrate are great up to a point, but they don't impact on the game.

 

I agree to a point, but a squad is made up of different types of players, different characters. We need the Heneghan style no nonsense players to do the horrible stuff, just as much as the Byers and Gabriels of this world who might look a bit sexier on the ball. Not everyone has to be a world beater in possession. Especially if we go down.

just like lv said, if you don't run around like a headless chicken you're lazy according to some vale fans. 

It's just so weird.

So have we actually cut the size of the squad down?

To me Cole was always trying. Not easy playing the lone striker in a side that creates little. Always looked good with a partner. Anyway, turned out great for us this.

Andre Gray is a sensible deal. Exactly what we need, on paper a step up from Devante Cole, as this guy has actually been convincing in the Prem. 

We’ve signed a 34 year old journeyman who’s been chasing money since he hit 30 playing in dossers leagues.

Step up from Cole … used to be. Not now.

I dont think he was used properly, or the service was any good to him. Looked fed up more than anything.
