Maybe the player goes down easy, but Moses still let him get the wrong side of him then decided to put his arms / hands all over him. 100% a penalty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
areNOTwhatTHEYseem Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 I do find Odubajo's Wednesday career really odd so far. It's not as if he arrived as an unknown entity - he played 43 games at right-back when Hull won promotion to the Premier League under Bruce, so he's certainly got the pedigree. Clearly Bruce saw someting in him and felt that he could add to our squad, but for whatever reason, things just haven't worked out for him thus far. Last night was typical of what we've seen from him so far: some great defending, but then a moment of real laziness to drag their attacker back in the box which conceded the penalty that put us massively on the back foot. I'd love for him to recapture his Hull form in a Wednesday shirt, but that seems to be wishful thinking at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's absolutely awful and was at fault for 2 goals last night Penalty was blatant when you see the correct replay which actually shows the incident. He was also to blame for Forest goal too Since the restarted, he's been at fault for 3 out of 5 goals we've conceded so far. Speaks absolute volumes. So far out of his depth He could have cost us 3 goals as he also slipped in the box last night but fortunately Wildsmith reacted well and came out to block the resulting shot.

mcmigo Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 I am absolutely amazed that a free transfer of a released player from the mighty Brentford isn’t world class. I am even more amazed that he didn’t entirely thrive playing a position he has barely played before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toooldforthis Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 He actually played really well last night. Touch let him down a bit on a couple of occasions and the penalty was an iffy decision...he just switched off. It happens all the time to us and we don't get them. He'd have been better just letting the guy go, Joe would probably have saved anything he got to. He's a young lad and doing his best. His defending was pretty good and his positioning was excellent. He's improving. I was at Derby and bang in line when the pen was given against him...not in a million years was that a pen, he was fouled. (I'm a ref btw). Give him a chance.

Whilst I agree with much of this, he's 26. I'm not sure that counts as a 'young lad'! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll give you a clue...we had academy players on the bench last night when Lees pulled out so had to play him. I'm not saying that he didn't make any mistakes but he's right footed and normally plays right back or right wing back. I think the operative word might be right 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highest penalty player in the league. To be honest, I wasn't expecting much before kick off when I heard he was playing left centre half. As it was I thought he did ok , overall. I think we'd see the best of him in the right back spot. Unluckily for him Murphy has been one of our best players since the restart. Though a man drifts off Murphy for one of the goals the other day which has been a wee overlooked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torryowl Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 I try to look for the best in every player but its hard to do so with him …….I think he can play going forward but his switching off and letting opposites get the wrong side of him when defending is going to cost us if he keeps getting games .
