Are you seriously trying to compare Mooy and Pritchard? You're Hamering on the wrong door there in my opinion Do you have some difficulty in reading and understanding English? The point I am making is that posters on here are judging Pritchard on his goals and assists stats. Let me repeat myself, Mooy’s stats for goals and assists, in a lot more matches,i.e with a lot more opportunity, ain’t that much better! Ok? Playing in different positions... stupid comparison, never mind the fact one is an outstanding footballer and the other isn't fit to wipe his arse.

That is not out of position for him at all. He plays either side or down the middle. Some of his best work has been coming off the right, see Fulham away. And no, it's not just to 'accommodate Pritchard', it's because we have zero creativity from the right hand side and need a change there... What has Pritchard created in the last two years? Kachunga has more assists this season than Pritchard has had in two years. That’s quite amusing given that Kachunga missed two gobbers at home v Brum, both from Pritchard’s superb crosses.

I think Pritchard will go okay from here on in. Am keen to see what he can do under DC with a longer uninjured run. I just feel he will come right Cream rises to the top.

Why does this guy get so much hate?
A fit Alex Pritchard is a good player for any Championship team.

Because the club paid an awful lot of money for him and he’s delivered very little of what we were hoping for from him? How many games has he started for us in the championship? 7 is the answer. Whilst playing with an injury. If we can get this guy fit and firing there will some posters on here eating humble pie.

The vociferous ones just go quiet until the player, and there are a few who get reams of 'he's shit' posts, has a bad game then resume with the 'I told you so' posts. I really don't understand why some posters have to constantly have a go at players. Maybe the ones who took their bat and ball home deserve some stick but ones who didn't live up to posters expectations? Really? It gets through. You can hear from some of the questions asked of DC at press conferences about players slagged off on here. We have almost a full squad ready for selection. Lets let the Cowleys be the judge of who should be playing and give the criticism a rest. We need them all at their best, even if that is not as good as some posters think it should be, to keep us in this division.

Give me a nearly man over a never anywhere near man every day of the week. Consider the money spent on utter shyte in the attacking three positions in the last couple of years and Pritchard is the least of our worries imo.

I know he’s a good player, I want to see him shine for us but I’m allowed to be annoyed by his lack of game time. I really hope he gives us some value back at some point.

Other players have been crucified for similar, Pritchard has not had much stick to be honest. We bought him as a Premier League club, I would expect him to be better than ‘good’ in the Championship....still waiting to see...another £20k plus this week for Alex in his bank...

Similar aren’t they, both quality at this level when playing in the right team, both not quite good enough for the PL although you’d probably say that about most of Sheffield United team and they’re not doing too bad.

In view of recent events with regard to someone well known taking her life partly because of comments made on social media, would anyone care to review and possibly delete any comments which they have made on this and other threads, deriding players without knowing any of the facts?

If the stats that show he barely scored or assisted can't be used can we use the fact that in open play he did sod all too cos he's too small, too slow and too lightweight.

Harsh Joey, harsh. - Was a significant part of the end-of-season miracle of our first Premier League season (unlike some of those who have been crucified on here) - Never displayed a bad attitude on or off field - and isn't doing now according to Cowley (unlike some of those who have been crucified on here) I'd agree with anyone who says that overall his time at Town has been a bit disappointing (I'm sure he'd agree) - but not a shit-show like some of those who have been crucified on here. I think a fit and confident Pritchard will be a real asset to us this season - if we can get one. He didn't make up his price - Town & Norwich did. For me, he's always come across as a trier so is one of those players I'll always get behind.

Diakhaby, Mbenza and Sobhi combined - Cost £26m - 25 games, 1 goal Pritchard - Cost £11m - 45 games - 3 goals Not great - in fact disappointing - but not in the same league as those 3.

This has all got a bit daft. I have mainly vented my spleen towards Pritchard, because until fairly recently he has got off very lightly. This was in particular compared to Mounie, who in my view has done far more for us, yet was often the player quoted when people went on about the failures. Also, some of Pritchard's vocal advocates are the same people who persistently slate other players; they are aren't fans with a rounded and logical outlook. This then results in any debate they're involved in getting stupid on both sides. Either way, it's going OTT. Let's just get behind Pritchard, Quaner, Kachunga and anyone who plays for us, who isn't obviously taking the piss.

They'll have a lot more assists though. Is it nearer when you put him up against them individually rather than as all 3. If you're going to put him up against 3 you could use Grant, Mounie and Kachunga and Pritchard would look worse than ever

For me, he's always come across as a trier so is one of those players I'll always get behind. To be honest, the ball through for Mounie at West Brom aside, I can’t really remember Pritchard doing a great deal at the business end of the season. Mounie, Ince, Depoitre all had standout moments. Agreed he was part of the team so deserves the praise as much as any other squad player for keeping us up. Not questioned his attitude, he always puts a shift in when fit but for me he is in the group of biggest let downs. He was smashing it at Norwich, week in week out. Done nothing to show that level of consistency here. The lad shows quality in patches, it rarely amounts to anything. Some people seem to think that because I am frustrated with him I don’t see the quality he has. I do see it but it is only worthwhile if it actually has an end product, which it doesn’t. I hope he is now fit, starts playing, scoring, assisting. I always back Town players 100% at the game and will back him all the way, just want him to earn his large fee, which he didn’t make up, as you say, but don’t be fooled in to thinking he had no say. Up the Town.
