Hugill

I watched it on tv and looked to me like Robinson put it on a sixpence for him. The problem came from Hugill making himself smaller attacking the ball. He seemed to go sideways at it whereas if he had just stuck his foot out he would have scored.

You can't knock his work rate, but his finishing is simply awful.

I watched on TV too, thought it was an awful miss...
 
Anyone who saw it as anything other than a shit pass from Robinson is a fucking idiot.
 
He got us plenty of free kicks and was a real handful. Has more potential than all but Robinson Imo. Thought he did very well today. They all miss chances, especially against big teams.
 
Looked to me like Robinson tried to arc the ball with pace into Hugills path, rather than a fairly firm straight ball with the inside of his foot. No need for that much power, as the keeper was absolutely nowhere.

Having said that, I'm not really bothered. Proud of them both.

Yes but how many times has he missed a chance to score and then the other team have punished us. Sheff Wed at home being a recent example.

I couldnt see it properly from the Town End of the ground but it would certainly have made it difficult for Arsenal if it had gone in.......

That said, i thought the lads were superb throughout............. We just got worn down at the end !

Absolutely. We kicked their ass in that 1st half. A 2nd would have made it extremely difficult for them.
 
I was bang in line with the Hugill "miss". Was it a poor pass or a poor finish? Not too sure.
Either way I had my head in my hands saying something along the lines of "how the fook did that not end up in the back of the net"

I thought they were fantastic tonight and made Arsenal look average at best first half. Unlucky not to get a replay at The Emirates. It would have been well deserved.

Reminds me a bit of pavel Abbot, bot a lot better imo. He's a warrior. as he gets older he'll get wiser. Won't lose any pace.
A great donkey to have. There are worse players out there.

Categorically a bad pass from CR, Hugill did not have a chance to reach it

I can't believe people are blaming Hugill.

He was totally unmarked so the ball only needed to be played to his feet, not blasted across goal about 6 yards in front of him.
