sglosbcfc Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 Thought he had a shocker tonight. His passing was pub league. We'll need O Dowda to put him under pressure for that wing back spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fordy62 Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 I like Jack Hunt and I’m not sure COD would put me under any pressure for right back, let alone a professional footballer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lew-T Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 Did okay first half but his legs looked completely shot in the second half. Could barely get near their left forward come the end! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Top Robin Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 He's certainly not an attacking full back and his defending is erratic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshtonRobin21 Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 I would rather see Opi Edwards be given a chance to push himself up the pecking order. Not too long ago he was getter rave reviews from the academy. For me Hunt is too inconsistent. Misplaces passes and gets caught out for pace. I would like us to have two wing backs with pace that look to get at the opponent's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrahamC Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 I actually thought he was ok first half, he cleared up a couple of errors but his distribution was poor. Second half he looked like he was really labouring & so was taken off, problem was that put O’Dowda there & he was like a fish out of water & his dreadful clearance set up their goal.

With all the injuries we have defensively and the formation DH plays . I can only think of ZV playing in that position.

I haven’t got the stats to hand but he was up there last season for assist and has already got a goal and a couple of assists already this season. Hunt for me is a decent fullback at this level but he is not a world beater - he will have bad games and will be inconsistent. I don’t think you can ever question his commitment but like a few others in our squad i think they have probably reached their natural ceiling which is mid to upper middle of the championship.

Prinny Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 I think he was ok, then his legs went in the second half. I'm pretty consistent on not liking him because of his limited physical ability. I think generally this season he's been good and the system has really benefit him. But you also need to put him in a position to succeed, and he ran out of gas, and Holden chose not to do anything much about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Fordy.....look at Lamptey of Brighton if you want to see a proper attacking wing back. Hunt does not run at defenders and take them on. Yes occasionally he gets a cross in but he doesn't have the ability to beat a defender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially with Kelly getting forward so well from left centre back. Hunt did struggle but I thought he was very good first half and generally played well this season. I can't really think of who would be back up for Hunt now. It's okay saying play Edwards, and maybe he might surprise everyone. But he might well be nowhere near good enough to deal with those Bournemouth players. I don't know if Massengo or Nagy would be given a go there. O'Dowda has a bit of experience playing in that position at least so might well be him. Would not want Vyner at right wing back when he's doing so well at centre back, which is his best position. I was thinking about Massengo being a stop gap there too. Lots of energy, can cover the ground, likes to get stuck in and is surprisingly strong at times. No idea if he can cross though (!) and a big ask for such a young player to take on an entirely new role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The people now seriously saying Opi Edwards should be playing against a team that was in The Prem last year are detached from reality. Always comes after a defeat, as well.. He has only played National League South football, apart from playing for the U23s & 1 FA Cup game a few years ago that we basically conceded. With Sessegnon out & no other CB fit to switch Vyner we are clearly struggling but I’m not sure playing either Massengo or Nagy there is wise.

Only those involved with first team work can really judge whether anyone from the academy is ready for an opportunity. I imagine in the mean time if we need to make a change we'll go 4 at the back though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine in the mean time if we need to make a change we'll go 4 at the back though. Kelly just seemed to have a more effortless rise to the first team than anyone else. Vyner, Bakinson, Semenyo & Moore who all started tonight, all did so following loan spells at league clubs, in a couple of cases only following numerous ones. Edwards hasn’t had any yet & my hunch would be we will think about whether any of those who are currently out on loan are nearer to the first team than him in January if as expected, Mawson is ruled out long term & Sessegnon potentially is as well.
