Popular Post Lord Snooty Posted January 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 9, 2020 (edited) Monk talks a lot about desire. Desire to work hard. Well what a great example of that from the Brighton game from Morgan Fox. Here's Morgan, oft accused of not getting forward enough screaming for the pass from Reach on the far side of the Brighton penalty box. Reach ignores him and tries to beat his man. We lose the ball. Who puts an end to the Brighton attack getting in the block at the other end. Morgan Fox.... https://media.giphy.com/media/WQIJD35OMasJ0Wl65e/giphy.gif ...who's absolutely run his nads off tracking him man the length of the pitch to keep that clean sheet. That's desire. You can have all the skill in the world but you also have to have balls and drive in this game.

The Night-Owl Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Proving his doubters wrong and been impressed with him consistently for around a year. Wouldn't be surprised, if he stays fit, that he earns himself a place in the Welsh squad for the Euro's in the summer? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pazowl55 Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Urhoghide gets back just aswell on the other flank. And was Reach trying to beat his man or lay it inside. But yeah brilliant from Fox. Yet again for us this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well doe Foxy I posted a similar clip on Twitter just after the game, the quality wasn't as good as this though I would have posted it on here, but the site won't let me post video's I've taken on my phone I'm glad you've posted it, because some people don't appreciate how often Fox gets blocks in, or the effort he puts in Even when a lot of people were criticising him, he was still getting his blocks in, maybe he's not as eye catching as some other players, but he's a bloody good defender It's nice to see some people are watching the same game as I am Just a bloke, who used up all his luck in one go when he met his wife.

striker Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Excellent stuff, this is what fans want to see, maximum effort for the team. A wise ginger man once said that whatever the opposition quality, they cant stop you running. Some of our forward line might do well to remember that and follow Fox's example when closing down and trying to win the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking about Rhodes, Nuhiu and Winnall to a lesser degree. Dont recall them making serious attempts to close down defenders, it's like walking football at times.
