AwokenGiant Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 No player has got more assists in a Championship season for Sheffield Wednesday than Adam Reach (9) this season since Chris Brunt got 12 in 2005-06. Matches Michail Antonio from 2012-13. (Courtesy of: @DaleJohnsonESPN) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AwokenGiant Posted April 24, 2018 Author Share Posted April 24, 2018 Only 10 players have created more chances that Reach in the whole of the Championship. Of those 10, only three have a better pass completion %. (Again, Courtesy of: @DaleJohnsonESPN) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can just improve his goal scoring stats, he’ll be almost (not strong in the tackle) the complete midfielder.

The Night-Owl Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 (edited) Reach has by far been our most consistent player this season. In my opinion he's become this season one of our key players and one of a few that are of promotion quality and one of the players we need to keep and build around. For me Reach has this season been one of a couple of positives from a nightmare season, along with the youngsters; Joao and Nuhiu. There's no doubt in my mind that Reach deserves to be our player of the season and hopefully he will carry that into next season, attacking wise he's one of our best players.

From a standing start one-on-one he’s not good and he’s not strong in 50/50’s granted - but as a tracking back midfielder he doesn’t shirk his responsibility!

Sultan_Pepper Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Yeah reach is one of those players that just moves like a footballer, he can play multiple roles and just has class. You could see it when we signed him, he's got so many assets. Yet he's one of those players that some fans just don't seem to see the value of. Brunt was the same and Whelan. They focus on the fact that he's not a muscle bound power house or really aggressive. Not sure what it is but a lot of fans were slating Hooper for 6 months when we signed him and just don't seem to see how good he is either, bewilders me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StudentOwl Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Only Wednesday fans can be told that they have the player with the seventh highest number of assists in the league and then criticise him as not being a good enough creative force. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this the same Adam Reach that has neshed every 50:50 challenge he has had this season. He is improving but we over paid on him - he might now be worth what we paid for him, but you look at the strikers around him for a truly good winger and none of the have got particular good stats other than Nuihu over the last few months. Lets have a settled team next year with Reach on the left wing and see how he does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OWLERTON GHOST Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 He's not the complete article .. In Adam Reach we still have a young puppy.. he just needs a bit more training to get him right He's a top notch pedigree puppy though He's going to be a thoroughbred. .... We need to keep players like him ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Above average championship player, yes absolutely.nothing more.nothing less So was it just Reach in defence in those games? Did Lees play in them? And if so, what does your theory say about him as a defender? My point is, Reach is not a defender but he grafts hard and reads it well and can often break down play. He adds something to our defensive work as well as going forward - this cannot he said for every midfielder.

room0035 Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Funnily enough Ben Marshal on loan at Millwall has 13 appearance 5 assists and 3 goals gross up his rate to Reach's 35 appearances 9 assists and 4 goals and his return doesn't look as good and we could get Ben 10 for the right wing for around £1m in the next transfer window. Reach on the left, Marshall on the right who do you think would get more goals and assists - my money's on Marshall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
