coreyswfc Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 He didn't have his best game last night but put him in the team when we have our best players back and he will look a lot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodie Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 This thread got me thinking, if we are complaining about Reach, on the other wing last night we had George Boyd, how horrific is he ? Can’t pass the ball 5 yards, can’t cross, let’s the ball roll past him out of touch 5 times a game, runs like he is trying to stand up on a speed boat with nothing to hold on to. He came with a fair bit of expectation but I don’t care how many times he played for Dyche in the premier league he’s useless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyowl Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Reach was poor last night. But he wasn't helped by Jones and Butterfield and probably Nuihu upfront! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet some people still slate him. Hes over working to make up for the underperformers, no wonder he fades later in the game and I fear his patience is wearing thin.

LoadABallacks Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 (edited) Starting to look tired and probably trying too hard. He's the only midfielder who try's to make things happen and the only link from back to front. Can't expect him to deliver continuously with no help from anyone else. Reach and Joao are the only two attack minded players that resemble any kind of championship quality. Dread to think how much worse it could be without these two.

owls66 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Whatever people's opinion of him, I've never seen a player give the ball away as much as him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramone Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Has been our player of the season by a country mile. Not sure picking him out for criticism is fair. Other than Joao, he's the only one that wants to do something with the ball and will take responsibility. I've been really impressed with his character for the most part of the season. Agreed about the fact he isn't worth 12 million. Not even worth the 5 million we paid for him in my eyes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick_Turpin Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Had a bit of a prolonged spat with Rhodes when he had a crap shot instead of passing last night. They were both right - pointless shot and pointless passing to Rhodes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's the only one capable of taking a man on and putting a cross in. He's wasted in the middle. Played well there against Derby and that's about it. He looks lost. Get him in his natural position, let him hug the touch line and let him get crosses in. I think he probably will when we've got the likes of Bannan back, he's doing a bit of everything at the minute just to help the team try and tick over.

Reach has been the only shining light for pretty much this whole season. Reach has almost singlehandedly carried this team throughout this season, the guy must be dead on his feet, with the work he puts in. So what do some owlstalkers do try to criticise him, think son will not be happy till we drive all the talented players away. What will you complain a bout then price of a pie? Oh wait a minute done that already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh wait a minute done that already. Guy had 6 good games when he got some false confidence. Not good enough for our first team when fully fit. Heard it hear first. Wont play regularly for us next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrysgame Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 He has steadily improved and easily current best player. He will keep his place in the team when / if all return. Only way he won't play is if he gets a better offer, easily enough quality for a top 6 team. All about opinions though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

torres Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 His main attribute is his energy After that he is not that great in my opinion Plays ok 1 game in every 6 or 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peake Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 He has been our player of the year no doubt but I'm still not convinced he's a CM. Of course it's exciting when he gets the ball and drives through the middle but off the ball he's questionable. I know it's needs must at the minute but I'd say LWB is more of a problem area and I'd like to see him there, especially when Bannan is back.
