He'd been playing at a higher level than Jamie Vardy (with a similar scoring record), prior to him signing for Fleetwood.

Rough diamonds are out there.
Telalovic probably isn't one of them, but it's sometimes worth a punt.

You are correct and if we had bought him as well as bringing in first team ready strikers at the same time then I'd agree with you but we didnt. He was thrown in not in the deep end but into the middle of ocean and it appears to have swallowed him. In Janurary he should have been sent out on loan but again we kept him as a first team player, which this season has been a disaster.

Another non win and against 10 men and another no game time.

Gally shit again and not replaced

Which tells you that he simply must be awful in training. 

[Eddie]

Even if he is absolutely awful in training, there's no reason to not be throwing on attacking players in the situation that we were in on Saturday.

[roversfan99]

He has been absolutely awful in games too. As youd expect from a player signed from the German 4th division.

There was no reason to not bring other attacking players on and sacrifice a centre back though, it is just Eustace for you.

I don't think he's been awful. He's not been good, but not terrible. To be perfectly honest, I don't notice a huge difference between him and Gallagher. 

[DE.]

We've had two coaches now who seem extremely reluctant to put Telalovic on the pitch, which probably says something. Does make you wonder what the recruitment team were thinking spending any of our limited money on him though. Might as well have kept Vale around - from memory he didn't go out on loan until 01/09, so we could have just decided to hold onto him if Telalovic was our only other achievable target.

[Bbrovers2288]

His only impression on me was missing a header that would have got us an unlikely point in a game, I can’t even remember who it was against, Birmingham? but yes, another point would have been great right about now 

[tomphil]

Awful recruitment utterly pointless waste of a wage but never mind he might cut it in league 1.

[Bohinen1983]

I think he looks tidy. Holds the ball and links up play. Would be happy to give him a run of games through the middle. Let Gallagher run around pressing not scoring goals.. Because that's what all the best strikers do.. Press defenders and consequently are rarely in the right position.. 

[BlackburnEnd75]

Looks to have the physical attitudes to compete and his hold up play improved after his first few outings.

But he hasn't got it between the ears, his positioning may be worse than gally. The lad is so far off the pace of the game and his technical ability is limited.

I'd have chucked markanday on before him on Saturday.

The biggest difference is we have a lot more tape on Gallagher.

But JDT at least put Telalovic on the pitch. I think Eustace just doesn't like making attacking changes. We've been in situations where we've been down by more than a goal and he still won't make a forward-thinking change.

Hard to say if true. For me Eustace has played for a point in every single game. Don't lose and then points add up to safety.

We won't know until next season if that his style and mentality or not.

Telalovic is rubbish though. So is Gally as a striker. Only on the pitch due to seniority and no other strikers. Fully expect him leading the line next season.

That is his style and mentality. He's been here for half a season and hasn't even attempted to win a single game.

Agreed.

Gallagher hasn't scored in his last 13 starts nor has he remotely looked like doing so. Therefore in the unlikely event that Telalovic had been afforded such a generous amount of game time over the same period he couldn't possibly have done any worse!

Rovers had a choice to make between a loan striker from la Liga aged 31 or Telalovic and JDT/GB picked Telalovic. I don't know who this 31 aged La Liga striker was. 

[roversfan99]

Picked wrong then.

I very much doubt that JDT and The Egg made that choice. 

That has venkys written all over it.

Venky's wouldn't have known Telalovic from an Assam Valley tea-tinged fart in the wind, unless they somehow owned an interest in him.

Another Broughton master stroke. At least Telalovic wasn’t his major striking target. That was Ennis.

At best, JDT got given a choice between two pieces of shit and got asked which one he wanted. It’s up to Broughton and his team to find and suggest the players, not JDT. Sorry but I don’t suck up what Broughton and Waggot say like a salivating lap dog.

Everything they say is intended to pass the buck onto someone else.

It was JDT choice between the 2 players. That's GB public comments. Who the La Liga striker I don't know but find a few possibilities it could be tho.
