Swap Zohore with Healey?

Tue Aug 23, 2016 5:17 pm

Given that Rhys is doing well and making/taking goals in the U23 DVP
Wouldn't it be better to give Zohore a run to get up to speed and get some goals in and improve his skills.
Whilst Rhys can come off the bench with the pace and goals that we need in he first team?

Any thoughts?

I think Healey needs to progress and get an opportunity

Hope they don't take their time like they did with Kads

Healey should be given a chance.

Should have played him against Bristol Rovers.

Still waiting for someone at the football club to realise that Rhys Healey deserves a chance to be at least on the subs bench each match
He was never going to be given a chance by Slade but my hope is that Trolly will play him
You only find out how good the youngsters are by playing them in the first team
Here's hoping his chance will come sooner rather than later

Agree zohore needs game time. I'd we get a striker in I would loan out to league 1 or 2.

This is the guy who got 4 goals in a season at colchester,and couldnt even get a game at Dundee?

Didnt he get badly injured at Dundee and was carried off on a stretcher?
He was in the team prior to that then took a while to recover

I watched Healey at the Exeter friendly. He is nowhere near good enough for the first team. He offered nothing up front against a Div 2 team.

And there you have it in a nutshell folks by someone who's actually seen him play recently. :lol:

I saw Gestede play.

Who would have though he would have come good once he was believed in, managed and coached correctly...........

Irrelevant, he's the exception not the rule.

Imagine if every club adopted the policy to promote and invest time into average or even under-performing youngsters 'just in case'...

I totally agree with OP, I have no patience for crap foreign imports. My patience is with homegrown

Re: Swap Zohore with Healey?

The fact he hasn't even been given a chance is shocking especially considering we are instead opting to play with midfielders up front

Re: Swap Zohore with Healey?

Yes I would give him a chance prefer upfront than a pretend Pilkington.

Same here. The boy seems to know where the goal is if nothing else. Surely worth a punt from the subs bench at least.

Personally I'd swap Zohore for anybody. With the possible exception of Macheda
