One of the worst number 9s I’ve ever seen at orient.. Disagree, decent player that doesn’t really fit into the way Richie wants us to play. |

Don't be silly. We're a newly promoted side who just lost marginally to a team that's superior to us in every significant way. |

I agree with the OP. Pigott is one of the worst number 9s we've ever had. He really is useless.
As soon as Sotiriou came off, and Pigott came on, i knew our attacking threat was gone...and it was

I'm confident it won't happen again - although the sick list looks like it's getting out of hand anyway. |

That may well be better and more energetic than Pigott, but for Richie it's experience that counts. |

I must say for a big guy he is easily knocked over , and doesn’t have any pace.
I would have preferred edwards to be brought on simply because I wanted to see what he is about.
With archibald out and sotirou and Happe with hamstrings we are running on empty with 2 games a week.

He is a good player he has just been out of form since he joined.
That’s it.
No more to be said, nothings going to change by you sharing your opinions and trying to outdo each other in new ways of saying “ergh he’s crap”

Couple of points to consider.
He never had a proper pre season and arrived not 100%, you can't underestimate the importance of a good pre season.
I personally don't see him as a number 9, I also do see him as a 10, but I think he would be more effective as part of a 2 up front. Unfortunately we don't play that way.
He's taking some stick here, yet he was not the reason we didn't win, there's 11 on the pitch and our setup was wrong and our mindset was wrong, maybe he didn't help in chasing things down quickly enough, but by the time he was on the pitch we were dug in to play out a nil win which would have been against the odds instead of staying on the front foot.
