No flapping or dropping the ball..just calm and measured. First choice now...without any doubt. Yep. Really showed focus and composure in last 10 mins or so. No flapping and made it look easy.

Dawson was good except some of his kicking was woeful As long as he’s s handling and positioning are correct, I can live with the odd game where his kicking goes awry.

Mr. Tom Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Börner is ridiculous in the air. You just don’t beat him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurujuan Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 A real solid organised unit, and how much has Dawson come on, in terms of commanding his area. It wasn’t always his strongest point, but he’s gaining confidence game by game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How good is Bundesliga 2? That one he won when he was horizontal across the backing-in attacker’s shoulders was him in a nutshell. He’d head a Land Rover if it came anywhere near our box.

Used the ball average, few sloppy passes and sitting way to deep alot of the time. Iorfa and Palmer both stand out performances 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sMacLean Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Borner is up there with the best in the league, far superior to Lees. If he was 25 instead of nearly 29 he'd be worth double figures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westwood would have fumbled that deep cross at the end and put it on one of their heads. Quick release of the ball too. His kicking is in Westwood territory though. His kicking is usually far better although he did 3 "Westies" today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McRightSide Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Looking pretty solid. I love Börner and I love Iorfa... ...but Tom Lees is just a rock There was a moment first half where he beautifully anticipated the ball just dropping over the head of the forward and intercepted it. At first he set off and it looked a horrible misjudgement to attempt to win the header. Then you realized he didn’t even try and could see the game unfolding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never thought I'd hear those words but to be fair to fox he hasn't let last years slatings (me included) get to him and he's now going through his best form since being at Hillsborough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salmonbones Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 One thing I noticed today, Dawson was very loud - not just when we were defending but also when we were on the offensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apswfcowl Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Was worried when Fox went off and the whole back four changed positions. Needn't have though as they were excellent! Well deserved clean sheet too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmowl Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Dawson’s 9 starts this season:- W6. D3. L0. Only 5 goals conceded. Lad looks rock solid and full of confidence. Why wouldn’t he with that phenomenal record? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
