Catch-Up1 Assessment of Player Perfomance v Hull


Recommended Posts

I am pleased a few people showed interest in my last post so I was motivated to watch the Hull game for the first time. (I’ve been on holiday for 2 weeks).

An assessment of player performance v Hull 

Each player was judged on the following criteria:

Instance of excellent play                                     *

Instance of decent/good play                              *

Instance of disappointing/poor play                   *

Instance of terrible play                                        *                                                       E&OE

Highlights and Lowlights

(A justification for the main ratings above)

 

1.      Lovely ball from Dack to Armstrong

7.      Dack slides a great ball through for Armstrong who should have scored.

12. Nice footwork from Palmer as he slides the ball into the box for Dack who  wriggles past 2 defenders but the goalie goes down quickly to make the save.

17. A lovely run down the wing by Bell but his low cross is blocked.

18. A loose pass by Bell makes it difficult for Dack to control. Hull gather and attack, Evans slides in to avert the danger.

34. Smallwood decides to pass instead of shoot when directly in front of goal. Poor decision.

36. Bell throws directly to a Hull man……fortunately he miscontrols!

41. Armstrong slides a lovely ball to Bennett on the wing; he crosses perfectly into the path of the on-rushing Dack. 1-0, great move!

53. Nyambe wins an important tackle on the edge of the box and clears downfield.

 

59. An air-kick by Bennett in the box as a free kick comes in. Fortunately Raya collects.

62. Nyambe chases a lost cause to the touchline and manages to cross to Graham. The ball falls to Armstrong in front of goal. He swings and misses completely!

70. Bell wins the ball, Evans lays off a lovely ball to Armstrong who in his usual, single-minded way charges towards goal. The ball bounces off the goalies legs to the fast closing Bennett who somehow manages to put the ball past the post! How did he miss?

79. Lenihan heads Evans cross back into the box. Graham does well to get in a header but it’s straight at the goalie.

80. Evans wins the ball on the edge of the box and feeds Graham who scuffs his shot.

86. A Hull corner sees MacDonald beat Bell to the header which brings out a wonderful reflex save from Raya. Unbelievable! 2 points saved!
