Would be great for him.
I think he is technically very good but is physically very poor.

Brooks?
Slow the attack down, don't pass to a free player and then try and go through two defenders. no wonder Tavs has a go at him.
Truffert is a good player and always was a solid 7/10 game after game for the first 10 games.
He has looked a bit exposed due to the support from midfield around him.
He invariably can get in front of his man in an advanced position but then can't seem to cross it.
He has to cut inside and then passes backwards to the likes of Cook or Scott, who then pass it backwards again.
Poor old Truffert then gets exposed at the wrong end of the pitch.
Just needs a bit of help from the centre, or the ability to learn to cross first time.

Brooks has the highest expected goals and assists in our team this season btw … imagine wanting to take him out

Not surprising given how many chances he's missed.....how many actual goals and assists has he got this season?

Yeah we've got a serious lack of quality out wide.

With Ben Doak getting injured we had to put Jimenez out there.
So you’d play players that don’t get chances in that position instead ? Bizzare. Do you remember a chance we had in the first half against Brentford ? All of a sudden in the second half we’re creating much more. Not a coincidence
We don’t. It was fine at the start of the season ? Same players playing. Confidence comes from the back and when we’re conceding a shed load it effects going forward

Mate we've got a right back that has out performed Brooks and any other winger we have other than Semenyo....Brooks was poor on Saturday along with most of the team....we got chances in the second half because we went balls out formation wise.

Brooks has been woeful since his injury. Started the season looking good but recently very poor and he can’t finish when other people are good and set him up..

No it wasn't fine....we don't have a winger other than Semenyo than can beat a man....it's a pity Doak got injured as he might have helped in that regard.
Poor finishing vs man united and Burnley means he’s been woeful haha.
We don’t go balls out at the start of the Half ? We made like for like subs apart from cook and diakite.
Also brooks has our highest big chances created … so it works both ways. They’re not finished his chances either
