Talentless buffoon

Talentless buffoon

To me, Jordan's first touch needs working on but, I saw what he is capable of at Villa he single handedly earned us a point there. Richard Cresswell had a poor scoring season but he was always a good player that gave 100% and I see Jordan similarly. He is where he deserves to be in a top 10 championship club and starting regularly.

Is this poster Roofer32 the idiot formerly known as Marsbar who stopped posting earlier this year after carrying on a similar vendetta against Grayson? If so it would explain a lot about someone who knows little !!
LOOK AT ME.

No, the M.O. is different - marsbars wallpapered every thread with the same old drivel, whereas Mr Roofer is just posting on this one (with a bit of wry humour too, IMHO - another giveaway that it can't be marsbars...). 😉
 
I must admit I criticise Hugill regarding his goal ration, decision making when one on one but you cannot call his enthusiasm and running of the channels, upsetting defenders, causing havoc creating space which then creates chances.

there is little doubt that defenders coming off that field after 90 minutes will know that they have been in a game, they will be black and blue just as Hugill is as he gets his fair share. he is a 100%ter for sure and an integral part of the squad.

I like him and he is worth £2m of anybodies money. His finishing and decision making needs to be worked on. Just look where he was 4 years ago to where he is now then look at what he was like when he first arrived to what he is like now. SG is improving him

Agreed and just to add he is the perfect foil for the 3 players running around him (McGeady, Robinson, Barkhuizen) and while Hugill does the ugly stuff in ruffling said opponents feathers the trio as they did last night then run at um and frighten them to death. Perfect balance for me at the moment and I wouldnt change a thing come saturday against the Weeds.

And yet earlier in this thread you told me:

"Yes he is one of the reason's why we are no higher than 8th but there are 10 other players who walk onto the pitch who are responsible for that as well, you can't levy all of the praise or blame Hugills way just because he has missed chances."

So it's becoming clearer now - it's all a team effort when he's missing sitters, but he "singlehandedly" wins the points when he scores... 🙄

Whilst you can't knock his work ethic, Hugill is massively frustrating.

Last night he sublimely took a ball down from Maxwell before running it out of play.

All the hard work done then fucks the simple part up.l

Perfect pass to Robinson, the start of a four pass move for Robinson's first goal. Probably the best goal of the game.

Really ?

I'm not a huge fan of the guy either but if he was talentless he wouldn't be anywhere near a Championship side, never mind playing games.

Obviously got something about him but I don't think his attributes have anything to do with talent. Just a bit of a nuisance really, and even so he's been incredibly easy to mark recently.

You can't count to eleven - your opinion means nothing. Should we try again one, two, three, four... now you continue petal.

I'm also glad that 'poncer waster' Gallagher played last night because only a buffon would think he didn't offer something to the team.

I can't. Just like I can't explain all his inexcusable misses this season.

Hugill takes an almost identical number of shots to score as Jonathan Kodjia, according to Whoscored.com. (6.3 shots compared to 6 shots). Most people on here would class Kodjia as a clinical striker whilst claiming that Hugill is crap.
 
End of the day, our tactics require a battering ram up top and Grayson thinks Hugill is our best option for that role (which he is because he's far more mobile than Makienok).

He's had a mixed bag of performances from his own point of view and an ok goal return, but if his battling and running creates space for the likes of McGeady, Barkhuizen, Robinson and Horgan then he'll do for me.
