Abysmal: no other way to describe his performance yesterday. Steven Chicken on Burgzorg in 5 Conclusions: “Burgzorg is most notable among them, treating every moment of every game like he’s mucking about with his mates in the park, rather than fighting a relegation battle as a professional footballer. There have been times this season when his unpredictability has been worth putting up with, but he’s so bad outside those rare moments that it’s surely no longer anything like a worthwhile trade-off. On the contrary, when he plays like this, Burgzorg is actively detrimental to the work Town are trying to do in attack. Burgzorg had 22 touches in 64 minutes in this game, five of which did not officially count because he was offside — some 23%. With his remaining 17(!) touches, Burgzorg did not once successfully get past an opponent, drew zero fouls, and completed just eight passes to teammates — a couple of which were deemed ‘complete’ only on a technicality, and none of which resulted in a shooting opportunity for a teammate (key passes). Burgzorg had two shots, neither of which were on target; made no tackles or interceptions; and won just one aerial duel.” Everything you need to know, and stats to back it up. Seriously hope he’s not starting vs Stoke.

First impressions of DB was he was exciting, and I was very much pro DB and was hoping we'd sign him up permanently
My first impression was wrong. I REALLY hope he doesn't start for the rest of the season.

He has proved ultimately disappointing but I don't see any better option.His unpredictability is worth leaving him in for me.

With Delano you can see now why, he has never settled at any of his clubs. He has talent, but is very inconsitant to say the least, also he doesn't seem to be a team player, in that he doesn't release the ball when he should too often or when things are not going well for the team he kind of gives up. His flashes of talent are not enough, bearing in mind the obvious falls in his game. A million quid in todays world is not much, but it is when you consider the falls and wages on top of the cash spent. I would send him back without doubt.

The Bristol commentators were quite complimentary about him and thought he was the danger man for us. That said, they immediately recognised his weakness of being a greedy bastard whenever he was near the penalty area.

You can get away with being greedy if the end result is goals...he's started 8 of the last 9 games and has scored once..
