formerly known as ivan Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 Seen comments saying he was outstanding today and others saying he was out of his depth. My question is compared to the player that was torn apart by Reading last season to be subbed fairly early on, did people see an improvement in his performance to suggest he could have a future at this level?

Johnr1986 Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 He was neither outstanding or poor s few nervey moments but overall he did a good job considering that was he first start of the season not playing in his favoured position and the enviable pressure he aswell as the team face in playing the best squad in the league cheered on by 50 thousand gordies ,certainly have him above Mathews and little, Taylor Moore maybe not .

steveybadger Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 Regardless of Zac's performance today, is there a recall option for Moore, given Little's injury and presumably Matthews now ongoing exclusion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swede Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 I think he's shown an improvement. I'd like to see more faith put in him as he will only get better with more game time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeAman08 Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 Today he was solid. Only his third championship start and against Atsu who is probably a bit too good for the division. He made some mistakes and you can tell the speed of the game caught him out a few times but that only gets better by playing. With Matthews seemingly thinking about next season wherever that may be and Little injured, I'd just keep throwing young Zak out there. I think he's a championship right back in the making. He's quite smooth in his movement and what he does. Looks comfortable on the ball, even if he wasn't asked to do much of that. Had the confidence to take on 3 defenders with step overs late in the game from wing back as well. He's no worse than what we have and I think has potential for the league. The only thing that would worry me is he's kind of inbetween RB and CB at the moment. Meaning he might not be quick enough for RB just yet(don't have to be super quick but needs to figure out what he can and can't do there and how much space to give etc) and not quite physically developed enough for CB yet(may never be).

Spot on. From what I heard on RB, he played really well. Threw himself into it literally. Played well with Flint too I thought. More game time and he'll be building and learning even more.

cidered abroad Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 Moore played for Bury today in their win at Charlton. Recently signed Paul Caddis was also in the side so one assumes that Caddis played right back and Moore as central defender. and Bury have climbed out of the relegation zone lately.

Harry Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 Was culpable for both goals against - lost his man for the cross on the first and let his man infront for the headed second. That said, I'd still rather have him in there than the atrocious Matthews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthStand Sandwich Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 He was great - massive improvement on that waste of space Matthews .... also THAT tackle... class. He did well to shut out atsu for the 1st half... looked more composed than Litts ever does.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete1984 Posted February 26, 2017 Report Share Posted February 26, 2017 He was easily our weakest player today, he made one excellent tackle but otherwise was way out of his depth. I hope given he is 19 and a local lad he improves but nothing today suggested he is the immediate answer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think hughton 'done a number on him', at the end of the day he wouldn't have known anything about him, he'd only played one previous, against a poor MK Dons team. I just think he was caught out by the pace of the game, as so many young players are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Globe Trotter Posted February 26, 2017 Report Share Posted February 26, 2017 One of the highlights of the day, much, much better than Little. He will make mistakes but he will improve and he's only young Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bearded_red Posted February 26, 2017 Report Share Posted February 26, 2017 I thought he had a decent game and when you consider the opposition and that it was his first start at this level since that Brighton game I think he should be proud of his performance. At times I did think Atsu had the beating of him (same as O'Dowda had of Yedlin first half), but I thought he stuck to his task as well, recovered the situation a few times, made a couple of genuinely fantastic tackles and showed some real composure on the ball. As I did after his debut at Milton Keynes I left the game delighted he had played and that we hadn't bottled it by playing a more senior player out of position and thinking he looked a real prospect. Also receives extra marks for not being Adam Matthews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always had the ability. Had he not suffered with the injuries he would've played most of his career at championship level. Anyhow, nice to see you taking digs at a player you've likely seen 2 or 3 times, is only 19 and is rated as one of the best in the group of players in our academy at the moment, and also had a hugely succesful period at league 2 level.

He's going to be a real asset for us next season. Contrary to what I've been told mate, I'm good friends with a Bury fan and he reckons he's not been standout at that level which doesn't really bode well. Anyway, sorry to be pedantic, but isn't it Zak Vyner, not Zac? Seen Zac in here a few times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
