legendaryswan Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Reach for me,hes had bags of stick this last few weeks and showed his quality today with an energetic display. Hard to single just one player today Im pleased to say,Iorfa,Fletcher,Bannan ,Boerner all had stormers,every player did their bit stuck at their tasks and made solid contributions to a very pleasing team effort. Well done to Monk as well for the the selection,worked a treat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Reyt enjoyed that. No need to say a negative word on anyone's performance great team display. Nuhiu getting involved and linking play justified his selection. I've been critical of reach of late but he stepped up and a put in the type of performance we know he is capable of. Well done Garry Monk, kept his comments about his time at Boro to a minimum in the build up despite a fair bit of petty stuff coming from their side. Simply enabled his side to do the talking where it matters, on the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britpunk77 Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Unequivocally Reach, assist, good goal and great energy. What more can you ask for? Well played Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreshOwl Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Any of Iorfa, Fletcher or Reach. Borner was also his usual solid self. We went down a couple of gears second half. Britt Assombalonga missed 2 absolute howlers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant crosses and brilliant finishes, football as it should be played in my opinion, in the opponents half. What delights me more is that we did all this yet Harris had his quietest game for us. Onwards and upwards! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOHNHARKES Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Superb performance yesterday 1st half fast,incisive and ruthless. Second half resolute,strong and professional. Overall Fletcher was Mom in my opinion. He won everything worked tirelessly. Scored again and his overall game was superb. Big D was a monster also and is really making that CB slot his own fantastic performance.

Onwards and upwards! Great point about Harris. All four goals (feels nice to type that) came from our right flank. If sides are going to counter Harris effectively it’s going to make life harder for them on the other wing. Its no coincidence that they struggled with Reach and Odubajo. Any defence dealing with on form Harris, Fletcher and Nuhiu are going to allow gaps elsewhere. Brilliant from Monk. But, cor blimey your scores are skinny. Four-one away! what gets a player a Kagoshimaowl 9 or 10? Hat-trick, two assists, 8-0 and a date with his sister? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmowl Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 How did Odubajo play? Looks like he he has moved on from his disaster out afternoon in Preston. I saw in the highlights how Fletcher gave him lots of encouragement after his saved shot in the second half. Certainly from the 14mins of highlights he seemed to be getting way upfield.

areNOTwhatTHEYseem Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 I've gone for Reach. A goal and an assist is impressive enough in any context, but to pop up with them just after Middlesbrough pulled one back and it felt like we could be in for a battle killed the game off and swung the momentum decisively in our favour.

Lord Snooty Posted September 29, 2019 Author Share Posted September 29, 2019 I think Monk deserves credit for going with big Nuhiu. It's always a gamble to put two big lads up top. We've seen that tactic fail. Many clubs have. But I thought that gave us the catalyst to build on. Nuhiu and Fletchers physicality terrified their milky back line. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a very good game on the whole. A lot of Boro's problems were coming down our right hand flank. Odubajo played very high up, and Reach subsequently pressed from a higher starting position, which contributed to our third goal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuhiu has far more about his game then Winnall does. Previous two appearances Winnall has been very poor and if he ain't careful I can see Rhodes taking his place on the bench.

COupled with a spell in the 2nd half, when he repelled two corners in a row, then a free kick straight after. Not just dangerous up front, but he is so good at defending set pieces.

McCann at Hull won’t have a clue how we will line up on Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
