The Demise of CYL?

[Hodori]

Has he gone down the gutter post injury?

[Worthy4England]

Don't necessarily think he's gone down the pan.

Managerially, we're seem to be struggling to find the right formation, so I don't think that's helping. I think Coyle would like to play two wingers, but that leaves us open at the back. He probably can't drop Eagles at the moment, and doesn't seem inclined to drop Mavies after turning down £6m quid for him. We need to play two defensive MF's - so Spearing and Andrews.

Sitting his £4.5m forward on the bench next to his £3.5m forward (If Sordell actually makes the bench) is probably difficult to explain away too, but he probably still needs Davo up front at the moment, because N'gog doesn't know where the goal is.

So he's probably a bit stuck at the moment, without putting yet another of his "paid cash for" signings on the bench...

I once had a cat with a thyroid problem. It came second in the annual Fat Cat Competition at Pet City in Croydon in 1996. I still have the trophy somewhere.

They guy's gone.. Finito.. Done.. Dusted..

In all honesty, he has struggled since his return with a few glimpses of his old self. It's a long season though and he'll get his chance again. I'm positive he'll take it too.

This. I think he would blossom in something close to the system we played on Saturday, perhaps as the "right sided" player in a 4-2-3-1. Especially if he had a bit of freedom to drift.

LCY needs players around him and some movement. He's not a winger you just stick out there and he beats the full back time and again.

Brilliant. I hope you treated it's thyroid problem with cake. All cats should be like barrels on legs! It's the law.

I have no problem with him being out of form for the time being, well at least until after January. We all know what he is capable of and I for one would be devastated to lose him in January.

[SmokinFrazier]

Chungy, like many in the team, are struggling for confidence. With him it's not just because of poor form and because we were relegated, but the injury too. I have no doubt he'll get better later on in the season though and hopefully he returns to peak form later on in the year.

It's rare that players come back and immediately shine. It'll take a while for Chungy but it's certainly a good option to have such a class player being rotated.

Ah yes - that was the day Fred Goodwin happened to be passing through. Otherwise you would have had it in the bag.

Boom. Politics.

[Ianmooreslovechild]

Form is temporary class is permanent. I think the point about him not being an out and out winger is a good one. he's a quick witted pass and move man who's game depends on technically good players around him. The reality is he may need to go elsewhere to reach the levels he previously had. He's hardly surrounded by quick wtted touch players now.

Maybe with Holden back it will help but trying to play one twos off our strikers is a pretty thankless task 90% of the time

[bobo the clown]

This guy in charge has NO idea how to use our better players. No idea at all. Just like Petrov & (who knows) Sordell his inability to use them would fully justify them seeking a January exit.

A lot on here should be tying a noose then if thats the case with the amount of Holden will be back we'll be reet threads and posts.

Sell CYL in January for some defenders? What do you all think?

Not if Coyle is signing them.
