CF_Owl Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 I think Monk is just trying to keep Reach happy. If he only really sees him fitting in to this system up top I imagine he’ll just be thrown on as an extra body if we need a goal. In no way is Reach a striker and if we get some strikers in he’ll be used very little in that position...hopefully! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcx666 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Reach can't head the ball, can't hold up the ball, doesn't have the pace to play on the shoulder of the defender, and I can't recall him scoring ever from inside 20 yards out. Give him the number 9 shirt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post runningaround Posted September 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 7, 2020 was this a bilateral agreement in where Reach said Monk was a capable manager also? 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yeadonowl Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Square pegs don't go into round holes Reach never has been or never will be a centre forward. Stevie Wonder can see that Rhodes and Windass need to start up top Saturday with Kachunga coming on from the bench 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owls2k Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Garry Monk is demented. If we're into 'throw any f00k3r up front' territory then we could do far worse that going with Iorfa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinnishOwl Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 I'm puzzled. What is going on at the club? If we want to throw dice already, why not try to swing the odds in our favour and put a chunk of meat to play centre forward instead of glass..

Yes, although I think the way our manager choose to utilise our current ones is more concerning. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S36 OWL Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 25 minutes ago, @owlstalk said: Sheffield Wednesday boss Garry Monk has spoken about a chat he's had with Adam Reach where they discussed where his best position was, and both came to the conclusion that centre forward was the answer Garry Monk explains: "I spoke to Adam and I think it's a case of, this season with the system we're using, where can we make him play where he can be most effective? "He can move out wide, where he can do that job. But I spoke with him and we both agree that centrally is where he's going to be most effective. "He can play deeper than that. "But there's an opportunity to use him in certain games or certain situations where his quality in terms of that striker position can be effective. "I thought he did some really good work (against Walsall). "It's all about improving and getting used to it. Like all the others, the attitude is there." Round pegs in square holes again.

Daizan10 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 He was ineffective and looked lost vs Walsall. If this is what he is to become, then ill give him a chance to adapt. But if this is what he is supposed to be already, then we are fooked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
