Morepork Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 (edited) Tough call between Wildsmith and Iorfa. Went for the former. Great game under pressure. Lovely little cameo from Hunt too. Edited March 4, 2020 by Morepork 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onge Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Iorfa. If Wildsmith had just got a stronger hand to the goal, it would have been him. We didn't disgrace ourselves, but we showed zero ambition. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morepork Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 The commentator said weak hand from Wildsmith but it wasn't. Watch it again, his hand is just slightly too low, that results in the lift and top spin on the ball, Same end result mind. I felt he deserved a bit more luck, did a solid job IMO. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Iorfa or Wildsmith. Both need/deserve to start on Saturday imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kraschenbern Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Iorfa closely followed by Wildsmith. Both full backs did well too. Lee and Hunt showed some energy in midfield. Fernando worked hard. Murphy was decent in first half. Pelepussy filled a lot of gaps and did a lot of tracking, but zero in possession. Borner got away with some risky play. Lees has zero confidence. The less said about Da Cruz and Bannan the better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChinaOwl Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Definitely Iorfa but Wildsmith didn't do his prospects of keeping his place any harm with his performance. Shame about the manner of the goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmowl Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 All of them take great credit tonight. 9 - Iorfa - showed he really can be a Prem player. 8 - Wildsmith - very good night against the very best 7 - Murphy - showed Prem quality 7 - Fox, Lee, Palmer - did really well against top quality players 7 - all the rest. Nobody deserves less in a one-nil to City. Wish we showed the same spirit against Reading, Blackburn etc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shetland Owl Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Wildsmith with Lofra, Palmer and Fox did well Just wondering if Borner, Lee and Fox? might be out for Saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McRightSide Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Wildsmith - 7 wonderful saves in the second half, but ultimately a mistake that cost the game. Nice to see a keeper actually save some shots though Palmer - 9 never felt like his side was a major issue for us. Looked relatively comfortable for the most part Iorfa - 10 given the opposition that was a wonderful performance. Shame Monk has a rash towards playing him with Börner for 90 mins Börner - 7 a little bit harem scarem but we gave away zero shots on target and he (sometimes unadvisablely) tried to play a bit of football. Shouldn’t have wasted a sub Fox - 8 was in for a tough night against a real footballing elite and did pretty well. Murphy - 8 started brightly but then spent most of his time mucking out with Palmer in the RB slot...which he did very well at Lee - 7 tracked, harried, hustled...passing wasn’t quite as sharp as usual. Pelupessy - 5 meh. Waste of a shirt Bannan - 8 one of a few who looked like the actually had the ability to retain the ball. Worked damn hard defensively. Completely ran out of beans on 75 mins Da Cruz - 4 abject FF - 8 like Bannan, looked our best option to cause problems by actually having some mastery over the ball. Monk - hmm game plan was fine, glad we had a couple of players willing to get forward. Didn’t mind we tried to keep it tight and go for an equaliser in the last 10...problem was his terrible first 2 subs had already killed us.

torres Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Iorfa by a billion miles Apart from him I thought we were pretty poor. They are obviously top quality but they didn’t need to get out of first gear. I thought we defended well due to pure numbers rather than organisation or individual displays. (Did Borner look totally lost in the first half to anyone else) There are too many in our squad that are not comfortable at all with the ball, can’t argue with effort but we should have better at this level. Having said that I’d have taken 1-0 at the start when I saw the teams. Mention for the young lad hunt that came on. Showed more composure than most and put in an excellent ball late on. Looks a footballer. Hope it continues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trevdi9 Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Wildsmith played a brilliant game to say he has been out for18 months ,unlucky with the marginally offside goal , which could have gone any where tbh but just our luck , , Iorfa was a very close second though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
