Bit harsh to judge him on that brief appearance in the middle of a car crash, but I can't think of a more light weight player I've seen in a Town shirt. I think youre right on all counts. I think its a case of a reputation expanding by being out of the tea. He got the biggest cheer of the game just for jogging on. Like you say a bit unfair to judge but I cant say he left me thinking "id love to see more of him".. Not sure how a team in the doldrums like us can accommodate Majewski AND Butterfield I've said it before, but I'd much rather have given a chance to someone who's actually going to be here next season, like a Billing. I suppose the other side of the coin, we were playing so badly, it should have been easy for him to make a positive impression, especially against 10 men.

Gobern would have been better, at least he gets involved, plays a forward pass, might actually work to have him playing it in to Millers feet. Or maybe not.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing and all that, but this is what I said on 29th July when Town signed Majewski: I'm not disputing that Majewski (if it is him) has got talent, but he's hardly going to bring physical presence to the midfield, is he? Assuming Gobern is out of the picture and Billing isn't yet a starter, Norwood or Clayton would be about the tallest player we've got in midfield. Majewski has blown hot and cold at Forest, so is he really what Town need atm? Read more: downatthemac.proboards.com/thread/92097/new-signing#ixzz3TpCcHBP7

Has been quite amusing to see how good he's become in some people's minds in the last few months without playing. By the way Nick's been going on about him, I was expecting a young Pirlo to be coming off the bench yesterday!

He looked lightweight yesterday, like a rabbit caught in headlights,

A few were saying that Lolley did nothing when given the chance against Wolves when he came on at three nil down. Same people were then saying he was the best part of yesterday.
Don't judge players on one game, particularly when so many around him had already set the tone for a s**t day! At least Radi got two shots away whilst he was on, and a third blocked. How many shots did Vaughan, Miller or anyone else have?

It's probably worth noting that he couldn't have been anywhere near match fit on Saturday, either.

This is Huddersfield town though, you get judged on your 30 minute cameos and expect to be the saviour.

I don't think Holmes is the saviour, I was referring to the fact he is more lightweight than Majewski.

He's got skill, & pace on the ball, and he's got an attacking instinct ( and THAT's one thing lacking in quite a few at the moment!)

Funny how no one has been whining for Raddy to start since we began our unbeaten run

Obviously Ted? I we're doing ok there's no room to change it! Doesn't mean we can't question why players aren't been tried when we were getting pumped pre the international break.

But he obviously wasn't the answer was he? (which I thought looked pretty obvious when he came on as sub in that game and looked like a fish outta water )

(which I thought looked pretty obvious when he came on as sub in that game and looked like a fish outta water ) Not sure you can come to the conclusion that he isn't the answer simply because he hasn't been part of our good run - we could've done just as well with him. I love Radi's type of player but it seems evident that Powell doesn't feel the need to play one. Fair enough.

Having watched this guy play for the development squad you can see why he has not been given first team football. If it had not been a season long loan I am sure he would have gone back ages ago as he is no better and some would say worse than the likes of Billing and Tronstad and they are e not yet up to championship standard.

With Butterfield in the team we aren't good enough to carry Majewski defensively in place of Coady or Hogg. However I think he should have been used more often off the bench in games where we didn't have a spark. Rotherham wasn't really a fair chance for him seeing as there was no effort or energy from anyone in our team.

Wise words from Mr Smooth back from when Goburn was nowt but a bench-warmer Has been a revelation in the last few games, has the same battling qualities as Hogg but a better range of passing, energetic and attack minded. So would anyone hankering for a Majewski start please tell me who you'd drop from the current 11 ? Butterfield, Coady, Goburn or Scannell?
