Andy30 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Tbh I don’t rate reach at all , far too weak bottles challanges , gives ball away far too much. Not good enough to start . But Carlos makes ppl hate him because he won’t take him off why does he keep dropping him back to left back. He carnt defend carnt win a header ( to blame for third for getting pushed off ball ) , why not just leave fox at left back and take reach off for Dave if he wants to change shape.

Oliver Read Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 I can't believe the flak that Reach gets. I actually enjoy watching him play. He tries to be creative, cuts inside sometimes, plays as an inside forward occasionally and then other times uses the wing. Yes he bottles tackles and some of his passes should go in front of the man but if we appointed a decent set of coaches, this could be developed easily. If Wilder taught Leon Clarke to score I'm pretty sure a decent coach can get Reach to tackle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TodwickOwl Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 This sums up how bad we are as a team at the moment - that this lad is being given support still. An absolute shambles of a signing, his versatility is non existent - left foot left foot left foot. His strength is appalling, unbelievably weak at holding players off and looks man against boy when going up for headers and has sticks one good ball in every 10. This numpty cost us 5 million quid - not 250k. A f*cking joke of a football player. There are players worse than him, but they’ve cost a pittance in comparison to him. Pissed myself when he tried knocking it past a Norwich player near the end and then naffed it up right before their penalty. Diabolical for 5 MILLION QUID. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 If ever a signing sums up our decline, it’s this one and no matter how sh it he his he gets selected week after week and never gets substituted. Absolute Joke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flat Owl Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 1 hour ago, hirstyboywonder said: Got into some great positions tonight - ruined most of them by having an abysmal first touch and his physical strength brings back memories of Petter Rudi. Totally agree...a very Rudiesque performance and just about to post similar. He showed in pre season and in a few league games that he Has the quality to score some great goals and can run at defenders but ordinarily checks and passes back, neshes 50:50s and his first touch lets him down. cant fault his effort though and one of the best on the pitch tonight in a team that looks like it has lost belief in what it is trying to do...

Sgt Wednesday Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Cost us the win v Hull by pulling out of a 50/50, his first contribution to the game today was to avoid a challenge, he just allowed the player to skip inside him. His ability going forward does not make up for the complete lack of rounduns, the lad is pathetic and I don't know how he's a professional footballer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone explain how those conclusions were made? Who said that? Can you link to it please. I assume it was said after a win when people get carried away with the praise. Just like how after a loss people get carried away and slag anyone and everyone off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could name at least 9 players who are more worthy of criticism after that performance this evening. flipping clueless some of our fans I can honestly say in 40 years of watching Wednesday I’ve never seen a player pull out of so many 50/50 challenges. He’s quite frankly poo , no pace, can’t cross a ball and can’t defend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt Wednesday Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 The alarming thing is people only see his odd run forward and think he's playing well, thats because no one else does it. DO THE ***** BASICS RIGHT FIRST ADAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pale Rider Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Not his best game for me. Not on his own though was he. Set goal up. Was very weak in the tackle. When I look at the season as a whole I see many more players I have an issue with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldishowl Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Reach ain't perfect but to pick on him when we have seen the performances that Wallace and Jones put in tonight I find a bit bizarre . It is not the first time either. It was totally predictable how bad Wallace and Jones would be because it is a regular occurrence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
