HOOTIE AND THE SHIT TU Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 He's got his critics, not me mind, he'd be one of the first players on the team sheet for me Okay, he's suffering from a lack of confidence at the moment But what an absolute corker of a cross for Rhodes second goal, best pass of the game for me Another thing I love about Reach, his first touch is usually superb, he seems to pluck the ball out of the air killing it instantly 5 2 Just a bloke, who used up all his luck in one go when he met his wife.

BIG D Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 He has his ineffective games but every time he’s on the bench I start thinking that we need to bring him on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malek Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 I'm a fan, just think that he would be used better on our left side and Harris on right. Neither play like inverted winger, but get to goal line and crosses with their weeker foot. Then again, as a team we are doing well so perhaps it is best not to change anything for now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bulgaria Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 I am a bit like Reach with my opinion on him. One week I am full of energy for him, the next I just can't seem to get it together. Maybe he is one of those players that we only really miss when he is gone.

StudentOwl Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Works hard, scares teams sh*tless when he gets within 30 yards of goal 'cause they've all seen the highlights, has a wicked delivery with his left peg... We could do a lot worse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garry Powell Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Think the dropping of him has made him sit up and think about it. Started to do the chasing and hustling and looks a better player for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stocksyuto Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 (edited) That cross for the second goal wow, love seeing those, if he doesnt score but puts a few of them in the box every game I wouldn't mind Edited December 14, 2019 by stocksyuto 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Personally think he is a quality player. Another one who has got uncalled for abuse by certain people. Stunning ball for Rhodes headed goal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmowl Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Fabulous player. Plus, Murphy is his understudy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morepork Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Spot on OP. Been arguably one of our best players since he joined. Undeniably, he's had his first run of poor form since signing but he's looking like he's turned a corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just saying like! It does get my back up when people go on about this, it’s not Sunday morning football we’re talking about here. Reach brings a bit of quality to the team when he’s on his game, and that game isn’t going around smashing people (that’s best left to Hutchinson). For better or worse, tackling no longer plays such a major part in top level football and Reach has plenty more to offer. Dropping him was the right decision, but he’s starting to contribute more all round since winning his place back, and he remains one of our most creative players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wilyfox Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Not scoring, but is providing. That's assist no.5 for him this season. He may not be hitting the 8s or 9s this season, but he guarantees you team-play, work-rate, and a solid 6 or 7/10. Murphy does not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reach also gives us the ability to come inside and potentially shoot which scares teams as they know his ability. Is just as effective on the left and can also play narrow to form part of the central midfield when needed. Can see why he is the preferred choice.

There are things he massively lacks (well, tackling), but in terms of engine, touch, vision, etc etc he's up there with Bannan. Doesn't have the confidence/ego of Bannan, and that can go either way for either player. Usually Bazza styles it out and ends up looking ok when he has a poor game - for some reason when Reach has a stinker it stinks from a mile away. But all things considered, he's clearly one of our best. Fundamentally can't understand anyone who says he's a negative to SWFC, and they sit all around me. Ridiculous.

james o connor Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 He’s got his critics , me being one of them . I think he’s been dire this season, and that’s being generous . having said that , since he got benched he’s looked a different player. Stronger, higher effort and energy and a lot more involved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
