After the team was announced yesterday he was played up front at the expense of Kaddy (our least physical player replaced by the physicality of a Popperdom) I was very disheartened but hoped to be proven wrong which alas I wasn't.

My view on him last season was he was weak in the challenge/tackle and on that basis, Critchley has deemed him the best choice at wing-back which does mean you have to do that on a regular basis and to be honest if it wasn't so serious it would be very funny.
He has had some funny moments in crossing into his own box tackling himself more than once and the ball control of a pub player.

I said he had one decent game in ten and his fans(conspicuous by their absence for a long time) have laid into me but he has started every league game this season and has not had 1 good game since the new contract was trousered (there wasnt that many before either).
That is not counting good spells in games and in most games he has not even managed that but is rarely hooked but moved to another position where he is equally ineffective.

Until the cup games got to the latter stages he was rested and we looked like a more balanced team with actual wing-backs for me so why is Critchley persisting with him when better players can't even get on the bench?

1. Has he dug himself into a hole and it will highlight how much better we are without him which again I think we have been in those cup games.

2. He is not seeing what is happening right in front of him (his two lap dogs also missing it or dare not say).

Remainder of post removed. Thank you to those posters who have brought this to our attention, we agree that it amounts to a serious breach of board rules.

There are some good aspects of CJs game and of course there are some aspects of his game that I dont think have ever developed. Over the past 2/3 years we have all witnessed these issues. I have always thought he should be played from the bench when needed under the right circumstances.
Another winger should have been signed last week in my view but it is what it is.
 
My goodness, that's a stretch.

I do wonder whether you are obsessed because CJ has done something to you outside of football which catalysed it (conspiracy theory).

If only we could put the poperdom comparison to the test. Posted twice on other threads about his lack of physicality yesterday. Everyone else was up for the fight, but he'd gone for a shit in the trenches khazi. Can make allowances for his lack of technical ability but couldn't stomach him pulling out of tackles & letting his mates & the fans down. Soon as Dembele came on he demanded the ball & even won a header unlike Hamilton.

This disgraceful "conspiracy theory" of the O/P's seems to be okay with the mods.

Is it therefore okay to suggest, as a conspiracy theory, that CJ must've banged the O/P's missus?

The level at which you function as a poster, is almost as bad the level at which CJ tries to function as a footballer.

Have you ever thought of engaging in a spot of group therapy with him, with Critch perhaps volunteering his services (he must be good at something ...) as group co-ordinator?

You're completely wrong because he wasn't playing wing back yesterday. Gabriel was behind him in that role, as so many have clamoured for.

Goes to show watching on TTV isn't quite the same as being there 😉

I feel for the lad as Critchley is I and do believe this damaging him with this blind faith in him.
I don't get it and his lack of technical ability must rankle the players with bags of ability who can't even get on the bench and at some stage it must damage morale in the squad.
The problem is Critchey and not CJ'S who when played correctly is an asset.

You have taken that in a context that isn't there is it I am alluding to the season in general.
Edit: He wasn't good there either and this is the crux as he should have been better with defensive duties mostly removed. But I think his confidence is shattered.

He can be frustrating to watch at times and his ball control is dreadful to say the least but before yesterday he'd scored 2 in his last 4. He's scored 4 goals this season(joint second top scorer) and has 8 assists to his name so I can see why he's getting picked. Play him in the correct position and we wouldn't see such Jekyll and Hyde performances.

My first answer to that would be what would those stats be played in his natural position?
Shoehorned into another role in a front three and looked like a little child lost.

This highly qualified head coach has too many coaching badges because they seem to be getting in the way of logic.
 
I like CJ, he seems a great lad and definitely loves the fans. Yesterday he struggled, looked tired to me and not his usual self.

I also don't think he enjoyed the battle with their centre half who was a tough player to say the least.

I agree he overthinks things way too much but the OP was about CJ so surely you agree they are decent stats(goals/assists only) whilst not playing in a natural position?

He’s just a bit inconsistent with his performances on his day he can be unplayable .

Nothing else wrong with the lad and he does his best .

It’s league 1 and if was consistently unplayable he’d be in the premier league on 300 k a week

Exactly this

There are some odd people on this site…
 
This is an incredible take 🤣

Poor bloke just can’t control the ball and shits out of challenges…

Yesterday he was high up the pitch against a deep back-line with his back to goal… he’ll always struggle like that,.

Weirdest post of the year 😂 didn't CJ curl one into the top corner against Bristol away recently?

Not bad for someone with asperger's

Critch has practically cleaned out all our wingers now because of this formation, makes you think when he eventually goes we are going to have to bring in a load of new players to fit a new manager
 
If we want to get promoted next season, CJ Hamilton can't be a regular starter. He wasn't good enough last season, we got relegated. He isn't good enough this season. And we won't go up.

The formation needs to change too. Enough of the 5 at the back, it doesn't do anything for this squad of players.

Oh wait, you sold a winger and let another go back on loan to League Two. Dale and Apter are better than CJ and would have the same returns if they were Neil's love child too.

Can you remember another great moment lately other than the cross at Bristol? where he would go on to be the shittest player on the pitch as he did after said goal the next game?

If those two events are sufficient to keep you happy in your little CJ world and he then looked like a pub player for the rest of those 178 minutes of those games is satisfactory for a pro player then I am pleased for you.

The lad is being misused and he is a very capable winger at times when played as a winger.
Enjoy your blind faith and may I suggest a stronger prescription for your TT specs.

I think the only place for CJ is to come off the bench against tiring legs(full back for Bolton would probably confirm that), and to have no defensive responsibility.
We are all aware of his failings but seeing the look on the fullbacks face as CJ motored past him was priceless, but unless we play to his 1 strength then we are weakening the team on a regular basis.

And when you listen to the commentators, the likes of Thompson and Bowyer, they both say he must be a nightmare for some full backs to play against and both regard him highly.
Pity he has matches like yesterday when he couldn’t get in the game at all and had a shocking match.

We've played 343 for the last 10 games or so.

It's probably not easy to tell when watching on a feed, particularly when you don't have broadband out in the depths of the West Country.

It's an iteration of 5-3-2 or 5-2-3 with 5 defenders on the pitch you utter bellend.

We haven't played 3-4-3 once this season.

But you have absolutely zero idea about football, which is proven with every single post.
 
I think he gets picked purely for his pace as he becomes an outlet.

I’m no CJ fan but in football pace is a major asset and yesterday he’ll have got the nod for what he can offer on the break. It’s generally not much, he’s not been great for 3 seasons… he’s limited but will do ok in a few spells. It’s a bit of a stretch saying we’re his care workers 😳🤣

Yep, and I praised him for that and also his contract-winning performance which i also said about it that has to be the norm once he sets that bar.
But if anyone tells me he should be the first name on the team sheet atm as he is it seems then they are as delusional s our head coach is who seems to think the sun shines out of his arse.

The 343 does sometimes become 523 or even occadionally 541 when we are defending but it's clear to anyone who watches most matches live that Critchley tweaked us to 343 about 10 games ago and that that is now our core formation.

Again, it will be very difficult for you to tell on your black and white fuzzy screen in the back of beyond, ya country bumpkin.
 
Point 3 should be removed by the poster or the mods. It's out of order and if someone suggested it about you or a member of your family you'd be rightly pissed off.

Yesterday he was asked to play as a target man for a big part of the time he was on the pitch. Trying to win headers from aimless punts upfield. It's not a surprise he failed to win much.

And does he really bottle challenges or is he just beaten to 50:50's because the opponent is better. If CJ gets into a running race with someone and starts jogging then slag the guy off by all means. He's an ok league one player. Nothing more nothing less but he's getting a lot of stick that others don't.

Spot on Cagu, I’ve heard that said many times.
But what you are forgetting is that some posters on here know far more about the game than any pundits who have been in the game for years. So why should we listen to the pundits when we have our own experts.
