NYSRich, I don't have a personal dislike for the lad, he's probably great company away from football and his partner and family love him dearly also. Thing is I've watched football players come and go than I care to remember and Eaves is on a par with the likes of Stewart Evans. I'll retract that as the 'swan' did score gaols for us.
Yes you're probably correct in the fact he scored in our last two games but, there are games when sentimentality, just because a player has recently scored, has blinded Liam Richardson by choosing him to start today. This game was all about getting into them and making them work hard to clear our attacks which Hugill and Wyke seem to get about doing as soon as they entered play. How many headers did Eaves actually win? I saw Hugill win almost everyone he attacked unless he was fouled for trying to so do. That's the difference I see in Hugill and Eaves.
As for Eaves getting MOTM....
......it caused cries and outbursts of laughter in the North stand as no one, not a single person I was near could believe what they had just heard. I can only assume that ibs caused a 'fiddlegate' with the count
You like Eaves, I know Hugill would fair better if he had received the wing supply from the Weds players today that ripped us apart, that is what Hugill ahd missed all season, no wing support.
I respect your views, you like Eaves I prefer Hugill so appear to differ pal, nothing wrong with that as we all see players and a game completely different.
NB. You're right about Nombe' but in League 1 I feel he will fill his boots next season and, we have Andre Green to also compliment out poor current forward line.
