What? Did you even read my comment? 

 

"To say it was down to Rhodes is a tad exaggerated?"

I wasnt at the game so can't judge but we scored both of our goals in the second half. 

 

Not saying Rhodes was instrumental in that but I'm just saying 

 

 

You weren't at the game.

So dont say .

Just wow!  I’m all in favour of looking for positives when trying to assess a player but think you are way out on that one.

I was lying. Trying to create a frenzy.

Beyond belief he still plays for us. He lacks the basic attributes of a footballer.

 

Cant control a ball, cant dribble with it, cant pass it and for a big lad hes pretty woeful in the air, gets bossed by centre halfs much smaller than him. And last but not least cant cant shoot. 

 

What does he actually bring apart from being awkwardly big and sometimes able to hold the ball up?

 

I'd love to watch him try and do some keepy ups bet he'd struggle to make 20 

 

Was today your first time watching Wednesday??

 

I'm a big fan of Atty but admit he was poor today, saying that he's worst footballer ever to play for us is ridiculous, I've been watching Wednesday since 1969 and he's nowhere near worst, since Premier league days I'd say he's been one of our better players as we've had some right crap over past 20 years.

[bradowl]

Off top of my head I can name ten players far worst than Nuhui.

 

Hallam Hope

Kim Olsen

Ian Fleming

Jimmy Smith

Tom Soares

Jon Beswetherick

Craig Armstrong

Darren Potter

Stevie May

Larry May

This is one ignorant thread

 

Can't believe i'm acknowledging it

 

[papalazarowl]

big and awkward... gets a lot of fouls against him which he doesn't deserve... and always takes a couple of defenders with him for crosses, free kicks and corners, which leaves space for other players.

I like Atdhe, but to please some of you - yes he had a poor game.

 

Why does each player have to be assessed as useless or brilliant.

Having more than two options is just too confusing for some people!

He’s not the worst player we’ve ever had but I will concede that he is crap.

[FreshOwl]

Dave is Dave but the worst ever is an outrageous comment 

[Dot]

Nuhiu wasn't even the worst footballer to play for us today.....never mind ever

 

Bizarre

One of them has scored 21 goals in the last 2 calendar years despite being on the bench more often than not. How many would he need for you to acknowledge he can "influence a game"?

I like him, not knocking.

Just point to the games when either have been mom.

[Key]

Nuhiu: Regularly selected by successive Owls managers, often ahead of several other options, regularly selected for his country, and mentioned as a real handful by just about every opposition manager.

 

Why don’t these managers just read OwlsTalk where some real football experts will tell them that he’s actually useless?

 

[SiJ]

What a load of throw. 

 

Yeah, he isn't brilliant, but he has his part to play. 

 

Today wasn't his best game, but he has performed well this season imo. 

 

We've had loads of terrible footballers in the last twenty years and he certainly isn't one of them.

You obviously haven’t been watching Wednesday for very long...

Great player,

Here lies the problem. Under no definition or interpretation of the word could Nuhiu ever be described as “ great ”. Statistically he is a poor Championship attacker. He tries hard ( minimum requirement ) and he cares about our club ( big plus point ). He is nowhere near the worst footballer to ever play for us neither is he anywhere good enough to start for a club aspiring for the play-offs. He doesn’t deserve the personal attacks he receives on here because he gives everything he has to give, nor does he deserve adulation because he contributes very little. Why can’t we all accept this and move on?

Illusory truth. Please share any video evidence that Nuhiu “always takes a couple of defenders...which leaves space for other players.” Sick of reading this replayed again and again on here. For someone 6’5” Nuhiu is poor in the air and teams are quite happy to assign one player to deal with him.
