Looking increasingly like a man in the last year of his career. Apart from a couple of flick on's to no one he's done nothing apart from missing our best chances. Time for a rest.

Mate who supports Rotherham wasn’t at all impressed with him last season.
However, we’re not creating the chances for him like those created for Cook today. Our final ball was mostly very poor.

Worst striker we've ever signed, points-wise.

I actually thought he played well overall today. I was butchered in the match thread for saying it but I stand by it.
His link up created many openings and attacks and there were early signs of a good understanding with Sadi.
That said, the two chances have to go in. No excuses, really poor in that respect. Hopefully it’s a case of when he gets one the monkey will be off his back and he’ll start putting them away without even thinking. I’d be more concerned if he wasn’t in the right positions. Today was the first game where he actually got some service. If we continue supplying him I’m convinced he’ll start scoring, once he gets one…

He has been surprisingly average since his return. I'm quite sure that his missed chances and failure to create much for others will be seriously affecting his confidence. At the moment, we really wouldn't miss him.
High hopes, but not the same player we sold.

It leaves us with the same problem as we have struggled with since Dennis left lack of a regular goalscorer failure to get another one in especially with also losing Kelly will cost us and unless there are some decent free agents out there there's nothing we can do about it no matter who the new DoF and coach are.

Forward play is more than just hitting the back of the net, sounds daft but his hold up play is getting better each game. Against Tranmere he was still holding the ball up and bringing others into play with two defenders on his back.

Nah, I reckon he will come good and never looks short of confidence.
I thought that he would benefit with the bounce of having interim managers, same with Armstrong.

He`ll come good, and bag a couple against Fleetwood, to get off the mark, and then a couple more against Swindon.
We`re going to give someone a battering soon, to turn things around, and being the optimist, I see it happening next week.

I’m still hoping that modern Chas will be better than trad Chas.

I’m quite surprised at some of the comments, yeah he’s missed chances and hopefully he starts putting a few away. But we look much better when he’s in the team.

Agree with others his hold-up play has been very good. Just needs that first goal and many more will follow, I'm sure. Don't want the drought to go on too much longer though.
