Mamo is fast and is a wholehearted competitor which is why he is popular with fans, but he's not a consistent top drawer player and he has holes in his game too so if an incoming coach wants to change things it's not the end of the world.
As often happens on here when we have a few good results, certain players start getting overhyped: this week it's Lineham and Mamo, we go through phases where people rave about Ratchford, Hughes and Philbin too. What you have to remember with all these guys is, they were all there in the team when we were on those bad runs and people were calling out Price for just picking his favourites week in, week out and not giving younger players a shot or mixing the team up. What did all these fan favourites do in those games where things were not going our way, to turn things around?
The big problems Wire have had through the Price era are a lack of leaders and a lot of players who can look hot when the team in general is playing well but then disappear into anonymity when the team isn't so there is nobody there to turn around bad situations. The squad needs a shake up and is likely to get one with Powell, it will involve losing some fan favourites, just like happened at Leeds and Cas.
