Is that all forgotten because he was ordinary in a poor team display Sunday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever the pessimist Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 He has improved steadily these last few months. I still think there is more to come from him and he could be more assertive in challenges and indeed influencing the game, but he has become a valuable player.

Big Jack Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 Reach like everyone else on Sunday was given a role like all other players, i.e work with Pudil to close Huddersfield down. Boring to watch but was effective, he will be no doubt be given another role Wednesday, he is versatile can play left side , defensive and attacking, or he can move into the middle of mid field. CC likes him because it give us options during the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Half way through the first half, Reach has it on the corner of their box in a great position. Wallace make an absolute lung busting run from right wing to overlap him. Reach completely ignores him and fires a ball into Fletcher that no one could have dealt with. The ball would have ok had he set Fletcher to hit it first time. Instead he pelts it at him and we lose the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fernandos thru-ball for Fletch which nestled comfortably into Hoggs feet. Seemingly every attempted long pass to Fletcher from the back four dipping down early before it had even cleared the Huddersfield midfield. We played a cagey game and in the few moments we had the ball we made rushed passes or what looked tired passes, which is no wonder really with the concentration and effort required to keep a shape. It was a game that required each player to be a unit in a bigger jigsaw and left little for individuality to show through. The thing is, in such a clearly defensive game plan..who else would have played on the left and given Pudil as much defence back up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanye West Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 Haven't seen Reach have a bad game tbh, gets unnecessary flack because he doesn't do any show pony tricks they can gush over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tudders Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 (edited) I think the first issue with Reach was his price tag: no way is he worth £5M. For that you expect match changing players so the expectation has been there from day one even though Reach doesn't fall into that category. It's not Reach's fault that we reportedly paid £5M though. As a player he isn't lightning quick,he isn't strong,he isn't nasty, he isn't a goalscorer,he can't tackle and he isn't good in the air. What footballing qualities does he possess? Yes hes an athlete and can run all day, but you could go to the EIS and pick those up. Hes improved slightly this last few weeks but nowhere near enough. He strikes me as a nice bloke and I'm desperate for him to do well,as I am all of our players,but I think he lacks any footballing qualities.

But only because his only positive attributes are to do with fitness. He can cover ground etc. That particular passage of play for me just summed him to a tea. Did his good bit by getting into the position (because of fitness) but as soon as it came to doing something with the ball at his feet he failed. People rate him, fair enough. Not going to knock anyone for that. I'm not a fan. Never have been. I'd be delighted to be proved wrong but i;ve been waiting for that all season.
