swfc-dan Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Our only weak link today. Offering nothing going forward or defensively. Looks shot of confidence the most worrying thing. The cross he put into the stands with ample time summed his display up. Can't imagine Monk was impressed and we were much better when he was replaced. Reach and Harris to play wide going forward with 2 strikers, and keep him as an impact sub. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bouncing Owl Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 I thought he was absolutely garbage and I’d have hauled him off at half time. The only poor performer in an otherwise sold display. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick the Owl Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Looked like he was running through the motions, not actually trying to affect the game but make it look like he was trying, awful. And that cross.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beholder Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Has to be one of Murphy or Harris not both in my opinion. And right now, Harris is doin the biz, Murphy not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0114 Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 He needs to up his game. I expected a lot more for a player that cost what he did a couple years ago. I saw more from Rolando Aarons than I have Murphy and somehow he’s in League 1. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 You've got to be playing Reach on the wing. Murphy can go on the bench and be thrown on when we are desperate. To think people used to get angry when JJ played 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would only want him replacing Harris due to injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put him on the fatwa list, just below Bruce. He needs to put a shift in, he can be forgiven for lacking ability but not effort which was evident on a few occasions when he should have chased the ball backwards towards his own goal instead of just pretending to. He needs to be made aware that there is no hiding place and the only thing he has to do is put 100% in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, Murphy needs to seriously up his game if he wants to be a regular starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eightace Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 It's too early to write him off but Harris seems the better player. Reach can be poor at times so Murphy will get more chances to prove himself. He looked especially bad today but I think he's better than that.

McRightSide Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 I’m not entirely sure what he brings to the table. And I’m not entirely sure he knows what role he’s supposed to be playing either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The baggies fan that comes on here said he had no heart and desire while on loan with them, that looks pretty accurate atm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pazowl55 Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Reach on the wing for me and If we want to play one behind the striker then give Luongo a go. As Reach is as ineffective playing off Fletcher as Murphy was out wide today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeonLeon Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 As good as he was against Barnsley. You could still see he’s got performances away from home like that in him, in abundance too! He’s not a grafter, and he’s only really effective in counter attacks. Definitely a good option to have on the bench when a game opens up. Him and Nuhiu could be a great combo from the bench this season. A few West Brom fans warned us about his crossing ‘ability’ on Twitter when we signed him.

mcmigo Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 I reckon he was on the thunderbox when Sir Garry was giving his tactical masterclass. Then once he had wiped and flushed it was too late . He had a chat with Bully instead who, with a breath stale and acidic from a breakfast of buckfast and haggis, muttered ‘yoos get the ball wee laddie and yoos run and boot it oor iyes will see you ootside yer rum old tosspile. Garry flipping monk ‘ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And right now, Harris is doin the biz, Murphy not so much. Agree. I don't think we need 2 out and out wingers. Its a luxury and puts too much oweness on Fletcher to score the lions share of our goals. If Reach plays behind the striker, or front 2, drifting to the wing we may have finally found his position. Plus his delivery is excellent - ie the cross at Preston. Also playing a number 10 role i'm sure he can weigh in with a few goals. Needs to work on his shooting because - despite the worldies he scores - I don't think he is great in the box. Sure Monkfish has spotted this. Also if Winnall comes to the party, suddenly we don't look as predictable as we did before the break! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
