Cooper's future at Peterborough in doubt

[Pogleswoody]

Would any deal involve vat?

Is he decent?

I just hope he hasn't been tapped up by another club! He certainly brought us a few p(o)ints last season! :scarf:

I’m wondering if this ship has sailed now.


Would be the icing on the cake if he did join because of his ability to cross so well.

Sorry MGM, you’ve just surpassed Pogles with pun of the week there! :funny: :funny:
Crossing is the weakest part of his game, apart from his shooting.

His crossing may occasionally be a bit hit and miss, nevertheless things happen when he has the ball, hence all the assists last season.

Hit and miss? Sums his crossing up perfectly. He either hits the first defender, or misses everybody including his team mates.

I think you have forgotten his defending Mr Owl. I use the term loosely.

You’re right JAF. I was talking about the offensive side of his game, but 'defending' is certainly not good. He’s a good L2 player and for me, there’s a reason Posh don’t want to keep him. Not good enough for L1. They’ll have our trousers down if they get a fee out of us for him imo.

So what you mean is, apart from leading the assists column for the division on a fraction of the playing time of his playmaker rivals, he can't deliver a ball to save his life?

He wouldn't be playing in L2/L1 if he had a Beckhamesque crossing ability.
Besides, as someone has alluded to earlier, crossing is far from his worst asset.

Could be High Noon for Cooper

We all know that assists don’t always have to be blinding bits of skill. If you insist on looking at stats, here’s one for you. Cooper had the third worst shot accuracy of the entire first team outfield squad, with only Joe Edwards and Wootton worse. Meanwhile Aimson had 100% shot accuracy. See what I mean about stats? All I know is I saw every home game and about half a dozen aways and I found Cooper to be a frustrating player most of the time. Poor crossing, poor shooting, poor tracking back. If we sign him I will think it’s a waste of a contract, but hope to be proved wrong.

For a start we are in league 2. So you rarely find quality and consistency combined in a footballer. If you do, they aren’t hanging around in league 1 or 2 for long.

Secondly, for all his bad crosses, there were the ones that helped us produced the goals. Yes sometimes he didn’t produce but when he did it often created a goal scoring chance.

Without his assists we wouldn’t of won enough games to have achieved promotion. So l don’t understand your point tbf.

A couple highlights of Cooper's sh!t crosses: https://youtu.be/M4R9rwuvd2M

17secs and 30 secs.

You could go through the highlights of other games and find many more examples.

I wouldn't waste your time Mickey on this one. Not sure what he's on about! :crazy:

All a matter of opinion. Maybe you’ll see what I’m on about next season if we sign him. Not good enough for Peterborough, shouldn’t be good enough for us in L1.

You just let me know when Will Aimson pings passes from deep like Cooper did against Macclesfield for the Hardie assist, then I will accept Cooper is crap and our other players are better.

You say he can't cross but he picked out Bakinson repeatedly for goals in a clearly rehearsed training ground move.

The bloke literally finished the season top of the assists column for the division, despite acting as a back up LWB to McFadzean, and you are saying he has no end product. You almost couldn't be more demonstrably wrong.

Another woeful ball from Cooper 25 seconds in, the lad that can't pass or cross!

Quite important in terms of avoiding involvement in the playoffs.
