StudentOwl Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 Two assists today wasn't it? That's the sort of forward thrust you want from a wingback when playing with five at the back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philb125 Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 Nice reading in the week that this is where he thought his best position was in how we are setting up. Be awesome if he can go on from strength to strength there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been repeated ad nauseum on here over the past few months. Though it has to be said, his spell in the middle has improved his game. He's come along massively this season.

McRightSide Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 Can’t believe it’s taken this long. On his value, we would easily recoup the money invested. Good age, English, always available, productive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westfield Owl Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 I’ve been saying for ages that LWB is the position Reach should be playing. He was brilliant today IMO. It’s utterly perplexing that for the last 2 seasons, he’s played so few minutes in his best position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sticky belly Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 Really enjoyed the game today. Was it 5-1 last season against Norwich when Wallace scored from about 40 yards out? anyway regarding Reach he has done well this year, he’s stepped up and rightly got the player of the year award. however I’m not convinced he should be playing at LWB. It was fine today as we were largely on top and he didn’t really get tested. But honestly we will get caught out defensively with him in that position. Going forward, yep great asset. But defensively if you watch him his defensive work rate isn’t as high as his attacking work rate, he gets caught out of position and he’s not what you would call a strong tackler either, I’ve witnessed him pulling out of 50/50 tackles when there is a chance of getting flattened. Just don’t like to see that from our defensive players. He’s an attacking player for me and in an ideal world a left winger. His strongest attribute is his crossing. Its a real dilemma for the new manager to work out where to play him if he persists with 3 at the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no point playing wingbacks and sticking defensively minded players there. Just look at all the really attacking players at top teams who have been converted into that role.

And benefited from their poor decision making. And were lethal up front. Making it a well deserved victory. Them's the things that count Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
