He’s the 2 nd best dwarf we’ve ever had.. Jack Payne is the boss in that category.. Seriously tho.. Consistently underwhelming.. Remember norwhich fans at the time saying we had signed the wrong one.. Maddison was the one that got away Would rather have Duane Holmes as our dwarf than either of the other two little uns. Don't tell Frankiesleftpeg #HolmesIsGod

Apparently.. A new diversity rule has been introduced.. All teams have to have a dwaarf in their match day squad.. Pritchards value has gone thru the roof. Barca.. lined him up .. Messi replacement.. Phil holding out for 50 million in summer.. 👌

I would like to see him given a proper chance under the new regime, but given both his past performances and his bullshit medical excuses, he's on very thin ice. This. Exactly this. ESR is (rightly) our first choice there at the moment but no matter how well he does, he ain't our player. Pritchard is, and he's shown (admittedly more for Norwich than for us) that he has the ability to be a major, major asset for us. Give him a run under the Cowleys so he can show what he can do - but at the same time, 2 years in & it's fair to say he's been decidedly underwhelming up to now. He's capable of so much more. I just hope the Cowleys can unlock that potential because if they can't, wouldn't it be such a waste?

He either needs to be committed and play or we have to get rid of him and his wages in summer.

If we can get him back fit & DC can get a tune out of him then he could be like a new signing for the final 3rd of the season. He's proved he can do it in the championship with Norwich.

Only played twice for the Cowleys and should have had a couple of assists in them games if Kachunga knew how to score.

fed up of the "Pritchard tries hard" bollocks I said 18 months ago he's useless No pace, no assists, can't shoot, can't head He's as much as a flop as diabenza How many more "Fresh starts" or "Chances" does he get?! I'd rather an unproven youngster from Arsenal to play every game at 10. In our last game ESR two shots from outside the box and two good assists were almost as much as what 11m AP has contributed in 2 years. In ESR I trust. Dont talk bollocks, he works has hard has anyone in that Town team and like Wagner said, "we did not buy him to score goals", FFS - when we got promoted everybody with a bit of football knowledge knew our problem was going to be scoring goals. On that basis Wagner should have walked when he signed him. A hole that the Cowley's are still trying to dig us out of.

Whenever he does play he looks one of our best players and did in the PL despite not pulling up any trees.
His injury is beyond a joke now though and he needs to find a way to play.
One of our best players on his day and proven at this level. Needs to repay his fee although still looks a bargain at the side of the three amigos.

I'm basing it on his 19 goals & 20 assists in the Championship without injuries & managers that did manage to get a tune out of him previously. The key to my previous post is the word 'If'

Never stopped many on here slaughtering Mounie, who has done far more than Pritchard (at HTFC). Agree Pritch showed some promising glimpses early doors.

Yes granted, but at the same time people will hammer Siewert for his PL record or Mounie for his PL record. What's the difference?

Yes granted, but at the same time people will hammer Siewert for his PL record or Mounie for his PL record. What's the difference? I don't think it would be fair to hammer Siewert for his premier league record. He took over a club that had 1 point from the previous 30 available, basically relegated with players with no confidence who didn't want to be there anymore. I wouldn't hammer Mounie either for his premier league record. 9 goals with 5 assists in (minutes wise) what equates to just over 40 games. That's an average of a goal or assist in less than every 3 games. That in a team that didn't create many chances.

He's different league to those three, that's a fact. Plus he has actually performed in this league at a very good level previously. People bemoaning the fact he didn't produce goals and assists in the premier league in that terrible team, half of the time under a terrible manager. Who the hell did? People have short memories, in most games, certainly under Wagner, Mooy and Pritchard looked the only players in our team who belonged on the same pitch as the opposition. Needs to deliver now though, he could play either wing or number 10 so could be a massive asset.

In the PL he showed himself to be too small, too slow and too weak. As for producing it in the Championship, well so did Kachunga around the same time but he doesn't now. Ince produced at this level but doesn't anymore either. Times change, players do too.
