What is he being asked to do? What is his role? To me he’s the same as Franco, break up play, and get the ball moving. I’m not suggesting that him not scoring goals is great but I don’t believe that’s his primary role.Of course. But it’s not unreasonable to expect more than one assist and no goals from a player that has been playing a position in the team where climbing trees is pretty much the primary aim.
If your point is that the club have signed a stupid number of fish and no one capable of climbing a tree despite climbing trees being what gains us points then that’s a bigger problem in many ways.
And leaving the analogies aside, Widell is hardly a defensive midfielder.
This is the problem. We have a number of players that run around in the middle, looking busy, but not contributing to the scoresheet at either end.
No marks for artistic endeavour.
And having said that, he’s been very unlucky not to score on a number of occasions, couple of inches and he’s on 4 or 5 for the season.
