Millsy Whatever happened to the poor chap.
Those 2 great goals against Colin and then downhill from there.
Management inadequacies/playing in the wrong system
Went on about it with Baldock and it’s the exact same with Puscas. If you dissect his career here, he started in a duo with Joao, and whilst he had ups and downs in this period, there was promise. We then reverted to a 4-2-3-1 and he struggled until Bowen brought Baldock out from the cold and him and Puscas played really well together for a few games
Surprise surprise Baldock picked up an injury and we never saw those two play from the start in a duo again (still can’t work out why to this day). Puscas reverted to being a lone striker and whilst he notched a few goals in that time, his all round play was really lacking. This was a common pattern until March last year where again, he played up top with Joao, and again, looked at his best with someone to feed off. For some bizarre reason, he was dropped again and he hasn’t scored since, struggling week after week as the focal point. Unsurprisingly, in the snippets he played with Carroll this season, he looked at his best
I find it hard to believe our managers haven’t noticed the theme between Puscas playing in a duo and Puscas playing better
