WhiteOwl91 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Surprised at the amount of 6s for Westwood. Two crucial stops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmowl Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Westwood 8 two very good savescabd very commanding. Clean sheets agogo no coincidence Palmer 7 solid and a good forward outlet Hector 7 Great In Defence but poor distribution today Thorniley 6 bit shaken but ok Fox 7 same as Palmer Reach 8 superb first half. Quiet second. Easily most threatening player. Bannan 7 everywhere as always Hutch 7 dangerous first 15 but settled down and was great foil for BB Boyd 6 shame his early shot was so well saved. Faded badly. Fletch 6 great feet but poor in air today. FF 5 poor day. Too deep, left Fletch isolated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamiejohn Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Westwood 7 little to do but two good saves when needed palmer 7 good game very good of late fox 6 did nothing wrong defensively but poor going forward slowed us down thorniley 6 solid uncomplicated hector 7 good player hope we can sign him up permanently hutchinson 7 typicall hutch but should have scored bannan 6 decent but needs to be more positive boyd 4 awful offers nothing reach 8 great first half best he’s played this season faded second half along with rest of team forestieri 6 some moments of quality but needs game time hopefully firing on all cylinders come derby day fletcher 6 worked hard little reward aarons 6 looks lively and very quick hope he starts Tuesday jaoa 6 looked to make something happen should have been on earlier nuhui 5 not on long but looked sluggish overall should have had game won by half time but faded after break, inability to take chances is worrying but at least now we make some Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading were quite poor and it's clear to see why they're doing so badly, despite goals scored and conceded very similar to ours. I can't give anyone more than a 6 today. Mainly 5's, wit possibly Hector an exception as he never looked troubled and organises well. The rest underperformed against a weak team. Yes you are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musn't Grumble Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 I don't recall Thorniley losing a defensive header all game until Bodvarssun won one late in the game. He fitted in well and looked very assured as he did against Higuain in the Chelsea game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shandypants Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 (edited) I was undecided between Palmer and Hutchinson but chose Hutch by just a gnat’s b0770ck. Edited February 10, 2019 by shandypants Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hirstys_achilles Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Reach would have won if he played 2nd half anywhere near as good as first half. Reading in 2nd half specially first 20 mins really pegged us back. Reach struggles when he needed to chase the game. Hector and Palmer where best today closely followed by Hutch and Thorniley. Palmer gets my MOM vote due to Hector misplacing a few passes in bad positions. Nothing serious just cant think of Palmer losing possession in similar places.Dont know if Lees injured but Thorniley / Hector centre halves partnership looked solid. FF was most disappointing today, he looked very rusty both mentally (poor decision making) and physically (poor 1st touch and a yard off the pace). He needs 3 or 4 games before we may see some of his old self again. 8 for Hector Hutch Thorniley and Palmer, rest 6's apart from FF who a 4 for me.Nuhui didnt get enough time to get a score.

james o connor Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Thorniley, hector and Palmer were good . Fletcher was alright . The rest weren’t awful but didn’t do their respective jobs nearly as well as they should . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Few points though hector needs to stop looking for the glory ball and bannan needs to get into forward thinking mode Is that Hector who allowed us to create two amazing late chances in the last two games with inch perfect cross field passes? Part of playing attacking football is accepting it won’t always come off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
