Diadora Van Basten Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Wrong call for me when Haring was unfit. Cochrane wouldn’t have lost the ball in the middle of the park as he’s technically a much better player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOak88 Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Bozanic will never be more than a squad player for us. Cochrane has the quality that he could be a first team regular in the next year or two - could also end up making us money in 3/4 years. Cochrane is is undoubtedly the more important player.

kila Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Cochrane was more direct and played the ball forward. He needs some game time, as we're much better with him. Bozanic was horrendous today. Lost in possession most of the time, wayward passes, poor control. He's too inconsistent to rely upon, especially against top 6 sides.

Don Dan Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 I’m a huge Cochrane fan. He did lose the ball a couple of times and a least one wayward pass.

alanjambo Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Cochrane was poor when he came on but it’s down to a lack of match sharpness. If he is fit enough, he should start every game until the end of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Mikey Stewart did have a point, why are we playing guys like Lee and Bozanic, who have had maybe 5 or 6 good games each all season, when there is young guys, our own, in the Academy who are probably not going to do any worse but would gain invaluable experience.

Irvine has been man of the match in almost every reserve game he has played, last 3 games Cochrane has been abysmal. Based on this how can he be ahead of Irvine? I am flabbergasted as this gives the wrong message to all players as Cochrane should be nowhere near that first team at this point in time.

I will not pretend to be an expert but, whenever I watch Irving in the reserves my eyes see a composed and dominant midfielder directing the play; when I watch Cochrane he appears to me to be off the pace, always getting knocked over and complaining about this or that hurting, and worst of all disinterested.
