Ruel is worth having around as a squad player. He’s a decent option to come on as a 10, left winger or centre forward albeit not spectacular at any. Can imagine he ain’t on a huge wage either.
Whatever happened to her?RedDwarf 1881 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2024 11:42 am "A new contract didn't materialise ". ? Nigel and Kent , please make it materialise because having Richie is the best thing to happen to us since we had Justine .

This. We're not going to have 2 Dan Agyeis and 2 Jordan Grahams in the squad, sadly. We need cheaper squad players such as Ruel.Rich Tea Wellin wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2024 11:46 amRuel is worth having around as a squad player.

Hunt looks done to me against better team. Again, decent pro to have around as a squad player but can’t imagine he’s cheap

Playing as he has been last few weeks in basically the Tehoué role i.e. sub on with 15 mins to go and be a nuisance running around a lot fair enough but you can see the difference it's made having others starting upfront.Rich Tea Wellin wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2024 11:46 am

Well we do upfront in terms of a senior pro on a high wage, problem is it's Pigott and he's further down the pecking order at presentHoover Attack wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2024 12:34 pm

Well yeah, obviously Agyei is a far, far better player down the middle and Theo is a far, far better player down the left.gshaw wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2024 12:41 pmPlaying as he has been last few weeks in basically the Tehoué role i.e. sub on with 15 mins to go and be a nuisance running around a lot fair enough but you can see the difference it's made having others starting upfront.Rich Tea Wellin wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2024 11:46 am

Think we may need a new CB going by what he was saying, I would just like to know who starts these silly rumours like the Irish guy?Mistadobalina wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2024 12:47 pm Id keep Hunt. Is two footed and can cover both full back positions so whilst I don't think he is starting quality at this level, he's a perfect squad option and worth a year extension. We definitely need a new full back in the summer though.
I don't get this hate-type criticism of Ruel.gshaw wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2024 12:41 pmOrient winning or some sort of off field podcast-based drama?Hoover Attack wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2024 10:43 am Think the other lot were in favour for a while but they've got back in after recent events.

where was the hate for Ruel? I can only see an observation that tallies with my own: that Ruel at the moment is a third choice League One forward, good for cover and impact, but not someone a team at this level looking up rather than down should be in the starting XI across a whole season. He's still young and could improve though...LittleMate wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2024 1:08 pmI don't get this hate-type criticism of Ruel.gshaw wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2024 12:41 pmOrient winning or some sort of off field podcast-based drama?Hoover Attack wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2024 10:43 am Think the other lot were in favour for a while but they've got back in after recent events.

Having bought poorly with Pigott and having Agyei, Drinnan and Sanders injured (& Monc's unfit), he's had to cover all sorts of bases in the first half of the season. At one stage he was the only ever-present. Of course he misses chances - thats why he plays in league one - but Drinnan don't even make chances or provide others with chances. Lester Pigott shows more effort than Joe does on some days. We could let Ruel go and I'm sure he will (a) be picked up by another club and (b) score goals for them. He will be valued in a way we don't seem to.
I'm content with keeping him at the club.
"hate-type" not hate. He's the latest villain at the club IMO - probably because of the opportunities he misses. I hear it around me in the TJS and I witness it on this board.OyinbO wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2024 1:34 pmwhere was the hate for Ruel?

Don’t think he disliked mate I personally think he’s not suited to the roll of leading the line on his own. Again imo he would be better playing alongside another forward but I have doubts about his ability to control a ball and his physicality isn’t great. If you play the ball infront of him that suits his style but holding up the ball and laying off...nahhh not for meLittleMate wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2024 1:38 pm"hate-type" not hate.
