Did next to nothing when he came on. Wasn't aware he was playing. As far from a goal scoring number 9, certainly in this country, as you could wish. Been saying, for a long, long time , that we don't have ONE reliable striker at this club and unfortunately proved right, week after week, in fact season after season. Cartwright should have gone a long time ago. Agree re cartwright though

Did ok when he came on.. Looks to have strengthened physically over the summer… Needs to have a run in the team and start Tuesday.. He’s the only proper number 9 we have.. 🍻🍻 Agreed, he's definitely physically stronger and he's putting himself around alot more. I thought he got manhandled in the box for a potential pen, but I'm probably wrong. He did, defender threw him out of the way, no appeal, imagine Alan Lee, 1 allowing that to happen, and 2 not appealing if it did. I don't think he's good enough, he's also very slow. A Cartwright wildcard, let's hope it's the last.

Absolutely awful is Radulovic, has looked largely out of his depth both at Championship and League 1 level. £1 million pounds from a semi pro Scandinavian league, absolutely scandalous waste of money.
So far Cartwright has brought 3 x permanent strikers in the form of Radulovic (see above comments), Healy who is made of glass and Ladapo who looks like he’d struggle to trap a bag of cement. All in all an absolute farcical situation, highlighted by the fact Koroma is a shoe in starter week in week out.
Absolutely sick to death of money being wasted on absolute tripe that were told will come good after months of abject performances or extended periods on the treatment table.

Agree Bojan looks miles out of his depth. Slow, 2-3 yards behind in anticipation and absolutely soft
Harratt is a professional runner on a pitch and does a bit of pushing and shoving but is miles more affective than Bojan

Thought he looked the most effective of any of our strikers today or the past few weeks to be honest. Lots of hate for him but he has never been given a run and this kid scored for fun in the Europa League.
I'd 100% start him on Tuesday, hopefully alongside a fit Healey.
Think Marshall is a problem at the minute. Looks half tidy in possession but is not getting into any goalscoring positions. If you ain't there you won't score.

You're entitled to your opinion of course, but that is the biggest pile of steaming horsehit I've read on here. Embarrassing mate. You genuinely think he's out of his depth? Based on what? That is some claim considering we're talking about League One. Jeez man, there is some total batshit stuff bring written on here since last Saturday.

Out of every striker that got game time today he was the most effective.
He looks stronger and willing to work and at least has ability to pass 8 yards in a straight line. Funny how people see things differently. There’s a lot to moan about this week but Bojan isn’t one of them

Has to start surely? Marshall is completely ineffective. We are desperate up there and we need to try every permutation of strikers we have available. He has to start for me.

Fucking him off in January won't be easy. He has no track record whatsoever in this country to attract a buyer, and he'll be on a decent whack here; which rules out a return to where he came from. What an absolutely shocking, disastrous pair of signings him and Healey have proved to be from both a playing and financial perspective.

Yet plenty were queuing up to proclaim Healey and Radulovic would ‘bang them in for fun’ at this level. Radulovic go sold from a side in Sweden because he couldn’t hack it there. Agree entirely re Healey, no one at the club even mentions him now unless pressed.

Looking much better. Ball wasn’t quite dropping for him today.

I would honestly play him alongside Koroma or Marshall (form dependent) over our other options

Really impressed with his work rate today, and he looks a little stronger. Hopefully a goal soon will do his confidence a world of good!

Played much more to his strengths today - when he dropped off we found him with a pass and a few times Sorensen came inside for a lay-off. Played far more football and it suited him.
Hope he bags against Brizzle because he needs that confidence. Needs to be more physical and aggressive.
Did he get an elbow to the face first half?

Give him 90 minutes midweek in the BSM game. Think he just needs a goal.

Echoing other posts. First time I’ve ever thought he could make it and hopefully will improve even more with more game time.

He looked pretty decent today at times, it won't do him any harm to start on Tuesday. Is it just the Riverside open on Tuesday.

Three chances yesterday, one blocked on the line, one from an acute angle and one hit the roof of the net. He's getting the chances, so Duff shouldn't be too worried (Mick Buxton wouldn't be!). He's gonna get a good run in the next few games.

He's gonna get his chance over the next few games. His whole demeanour seems to have changed, for the better. Made some great challenges for the ball yesterday but up against very tall central defenders. ( I’m amazed at the size of defenders in this league) Time to persevere with him I think.

Definitely worth a run in the side, puts in more effort than others that have played that position and a couple of goals might just set him on a decent run. I remember a certain welsh international striker having a very slow start but once he netted a few times he never looked back. He deserves an extended run in the side, his workrate was spot on yesterday and he definitely looks like he wants to do well

Don’t think he’s been as bad as people have made him out to be from day one to be honest. He’s always had some good touches and looking technically decent, plus been a little unlucky with a few clever efforts on goal - but because he’s not been great physically, not got going with injuries, plus struggled with the adaption of the English game to not getting free kicks as expected - he’s struggled. Possibly frustrated and maybe felt a bit isolated culturally, it’s easy for your head to go down and want out. I did half think when he was left behind preseason that it was to bulk him up in the gym, but then we so actively pursued other strikers. I’m still hoping he might come good.

I admire the optimism (misplaced as it is)/clutching at straws. He’s fucking terrible. Considering he was bought so that his goals might keep us up in the Championship and he’s yet to score in the league below, I fail to see how anyone is coming to any other conclusion. Touch of a trampoline, soft as shite, so surprised to score that he burst into tears. Utterly useless. Ladapo is better than him by a mile. At least he has a track record at this level.

Yet to score in the league below with 2 starts isn’t exactly embarrassing. Touch of a trampoline? You can knock Bojan for a lot of things, but his touch isn’t one of them, especially compared to Ladapo’s touch, yet Ladapo is miles better than him? Baffling

I'd like to see them start a run of games in the unfortunate absence of JK. I think Bojan can get 20 goals this season.
