Sakala always looks ungainly but he caused them havoc.  

How many times did it lead to anything?

 

All I see is a fellow who gets the ball, runs up the pitch and gives it away.

Sakala has more similar goals and assist to kent in half the playing minutes since he arrived.

Many of us are in complete denial about Kent too.

 

Now is a bad time to acknowledge these things.

 

Wait until the next bad result. All of a sudden everybody will act like these players have become rubbish overnight.

Yes this is how we do it. Everything is polarised and no one ever changes thier mind on anything. Part of the Football forum internet rules.

Wingers are inherently inconsistent. No question both need to be producing more end product.

If we had a forward who was consistently on form, with excellent stats, he'd be off to a bigger league fairly soon.  

 

Sakala at least looks consistently enthusiastic.

Yes, Sakala brings enthusiasm and a directness that has been sadly lacking. As for contribution and end product, didn't he lay on a goal for Morelos and at least two more chances that should have been taken? Didn't he dispossess opponents deep in his own half on more than one occasion? He seems to me to be one of the last players we should be critical of.

Yes he did and that's not his first performance like that. 

 

His end product was awful v Dundee of course but even Candeias wasn't perfect.
