Greenhgate Owl Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 needs a full day just practicing shooting. I've seen some rubbish midfielders in my nearly 30 years of watching Wednesday but bannan has to be up there with being the worst at shooting. one point tonight we was on the counter ..fernando clean through to right and players in the box.bannan decides to take a shot and I've seen more accuracy from nuhiu. no attacking threat what so ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fpowl Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Are you on about the one with reach to his left? if so any player would or at least should take a shot in that position he was carrying the ball at momentum central to goal with the defender backing off just out side the box. You hot them all day long ( granted that shot was poor ) then he was in the same kind of situation and instead of hitting it he held onto it too long and played nando through ( the offside goal ) I still think bannan is the one in our team that makes us tick over and starts a lot of our attacks and some of his pressing today was great again. But he does have some weaknesses. And I still think we missed a trick in not resting him and starting abdi at home to Blackburn surely these are the games he can sit out or be benched for and maybe allow him to be that not sharper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why the OP has suggested he practices more. A centre half has scored more goals in one game than the wonderful Barry Bannan has all season.

Guest wilyfox Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Kieran Lee was the same. Hopefully Bannan will follow and sharpen up in front of goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WUGGAMONKEY1 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I thought he made some poor decisions in the final third today. I also thought he wanted an extra touch on the ball before playing his pass on a few occasions - including when he played FF in for his offside 'goal'. That said, he didn't hide and worked hard.

We have FF JR GH SF & SW to do that. Okay goals from midfield help but with that strikeforce not a neccessity. Barry Bannan offers a lot to the team without scoring alot goals plus Barry Bannan only scores worldies. Be happy, we won.... again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he does play as well as he is able to, most games. He plays too far back on the pitch for me but that will on the manager's instructions I suppose. His shooting is woeful, it has been most of the time he's been here and he does take too long between receiving the ball and passing it for me, oh and his tackling for a midfield player is a bit lightweight. Having said all that, I do like his attitude and for me, does add to the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owl999 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 He should have been swapped for Abdi at half time for me . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pazowl55 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Get used to Bannan. He is here to stay. But to be fair, he can't shoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dumboldowl Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 If Bannan practised passing forwards more often, instead of sideways and backwards, then he would be a much better player, and much less infuriating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
