Clutton Caveman Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Whilst I can clearly see why Vyner and Bakinson got on the naughty step I am really struggling to understand why Pring is out of favour. During our worst form he was one of the few giving 100% where ever he was played and showed fight in the tackle and confidence to run with the ball. I hope he is still here next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I can gather, he is still paying the penalty for his last minute error away to Preston. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Geoff Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Lost his bus ticket, searching everywhere for it, currently looking down the back of the setee. I'm sure it will turn up just in time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcfc01 Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Possibly because Jay Dasilva is in form and playing well ? NP dispelled any conspiracy theories in his Hull interview. But he should be on the bench, crazy not to have him in the 18 imo. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pearson said Idehen is ahead of him at the moment. Presumably performing better in training which seems fair enough. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sturny Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 NP has just chosen the best of the two. Pring hasn't done anything "wrong" to be dropped. There's is just better now. It's strange but this is the sorta of stuff a turning point looks like, it's good. We got too used to having to play players like Vyner or Simpson because there was no better. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamC Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Think since the Swansea game when he was poor & Vyner ran out of chances, he’s only started 3 times & had been taken off early in 2 of those (Forest & Bournemouth). I’m not convinced Pearson is sure that as he’ll be 25 next season, he’s going to be good enough to consistently play at this level. The summer will be interesting to see what happens, he could stay & start next season as Dasilva’s understudy or he could move on to League One. I like his effort, although he appears to be the anti Vyner in that he never gets criticised whereas Zak constantly does, truth is though he’s lost his man several times leading to us conceding goals. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James54De Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Well he recently signed a contract through to ‘25, so if Pearson doesn’t rate him we’ll be stuck with him for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but I would also add that not only his effort is likeable but he's impacted games in a much more positive way than Zak. I remember him driving forward and starting off attacks which was benefitting us. I'm sorry to say Vyner just isn't Championship standard just like we've established with Moore. I think its a simple case that Nigel prefers Idehen currently which takes up that bench spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davefevs Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 I see little in it….long, hard, first season, catching up with him a bit. Nige has said he’s had a good season. Benarous staying in the 18 is just Nige trying to be as true to his selection “rules” as possible. Now for a big pre-season to really build him for the demands of Championship football. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobArnold10 Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Let’s say we keep Cundy and Klose. Sell Kalas, Vyner, Moore. That would give us: RB: Tanner CB: Klose, Atkinson, Cundy, Idehen LB: DaSilva, Pring Plus youth players still to come through. It’s pretty well documented we’re after an RB and another CB. That would be a fairly sensible squad numbers and talent wise. As for Pring, as others said, number of factors and in reality he’ll come back around. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offside Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 I’ve been impressed by Pring this season. That late Preston equaliser can’t just be blamed on him. He was doing the right thing in driving forward and admittedly should have released the ball quicker - but it looked like a foul and there were enough City players behind the ball to have dealt with the counter attack. 54 minutes ago, Davefevs said: I see little in it….long, hard, first season, catching up with him a bit.

Quite often this season he hasn’t looked like he’s got the 90 mins in him yet. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IAmNick Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 9 minutes ago, Super said: He's just not as good as JD. Good squad player to have. To be slightly provocative given they're roughly the same age, and Pring has considerably less experience... is that a good squad player? If they think he has a higher potential than Jay he should probably have been playing, otherwise I think it'd be better to have a younger understudy (18 - 21) and more versatile older player to be your squad options. Pearson has also mentioned thoughts of turning Jay into a midfielder, he certainly has the technical ability in my opinion. Maybe that's the longer term plan, with Pring staying where he is. I guess one other reason to keep him is that his wages will be comparatively low, but I think we're getting past the days of hanging on to players just in case. As I said though, just playing devils advocate - I broadly like what I've seen of Pring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Journalist Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 I think there's a real player in Pring (and I think Nigel does too) but he simply has to get fitter and more durable IMO. The season definitely caught up with him and the more tired you are the worse your decision making gets. We absolutely saw this with him at times. Career-defining summer coming up for him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t necessarily disagree with your point about Pring giving goals away, but since when has he ever been a CB? Never. Pring played his best football for us IMO when deployed on the left wing, enabling him to swing in quality crosses from deep. Vyner, on the other hand, is a defender. It’s his job to defend, and he’s crap at it IMO. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
