Adam Reach

[bolton9owl]

No Excuses, Reach trues hatd but offers absolutely nothing. If a club offered ten bob id take it and drive him there. Another player who has all the credentials to be brilliant but comes short 99/100

Get him sold 

[s6 owl]

If he's so good at crossing then why does he never take set peices? Never known anything like it.

[theowlsman]

Did a lot of scuttling about tonight. Praise where due. He does that well.

[upperwinngardensowl]

Waste of a shirt tonight 

once again. 

but was played out of position 

[Roscoe P. Coltrane]

Should have played Hunt instead of Reach.

[TrickyTrev]

He was garbage tonight, I’m still fuming at the chance he took off Wickham’s toes after Wickham had done all the hard work by taking on 3 defenders.

[Pressman 1]

Poor tonight needs to play left wing we're he was brought for 

[FreshOwl]

He just feels like an empty player, don’t really know how else to describe him. You just never know what you’re gonna get when he has the ball, he’s rarely in control of it 

[Emilianenko]

Gave away a stupid free kick which led to their penalty. Totally unnecessary. I think it was Luongo was gonna clear it .

[A E Neuman NYowl]

I think we badly missed Lee tonite for all of Reach,s energy he just doesn't read the game like Lee does. He always seems to be chasing after the ball rather than putting himself in a position to break up an attack. I think this could be a reason why Luongo also looked poor tonite.

What does this bloke bring to the table ,Waste of money to what we paid ,Gibson saw us coming .

When did he last play in his preferred position of Left midfield? 

He's a willing lad that will play wherever a manager needs him. 

He needs to play LM with a ful back behind him. 

Square pegs and round holes. Where did we have that problem before? 

Definitely played there when he won away at Leeds.

 

Not an easy decision whether to start Reach or Hunt against such  a strong experienced side .
 

 

[Bouncing Owl]

Should not play in central midfield again. I think he’s a decent wide man and I prefer him on the left. Happy for him to play left wing back and also left wing in a 4-4-2. We shouldn’t deviate from that. 

[Weshallovercome]

For me Reach needs to play on the left wing or nowhere, he's totally ineffective in any other position(apart from those 2 worldie when playing right so long, long ago)

 

Never been his biggest fan granted, so don't expect that much from him, but he's been shocking this season even by his own standards.

What is his best position? He hasn’t played LM for us which he played most of his career before joining us, so I have no idea what his best position now is.

 

What is his best position?

 

Anything involving an alice band i think.

[Nero]

Lets be fair.

Hes the best pointer at the club.

What Pelupessy is to celebrating goals Reach is to pointing.

[Mr Farrell]

Worst winger in our history.

Was worth £15 million, according to quite a few posters on here, not so long back. 

[Kew Owl]

Reach is one of those players who looks more impressive when he hasn’t got the ball.

There was an occasion last night when he stood off their defender about ten yards. The ball was coming out of the air and Reach stood there, allowed him to bring it down (which he mis-controlled, it went behind him) . When the defender got control and turned Reach decided to press. Lee would have got tight and took it off him on his touch.
