Absolute shite shot though. The turn was decent but that’s literally all he did.
He saw a lot of the ball too yesterday, he just didn’t do anything with it.

Neither are strong, powerfu, target men and even given their height they both lack courage and conviciton in the air, but at least Zohore could get down the side and stretch the opposition defence, get us up the pitch.
I honestly cannot see anything in Glatzel that makes me think there is some kind of player in there.
He will be dining off that hat trick in the cup v Bayern for the rest of his life. I remember Darcy Blake played a stormer against Wayne Rooney too and managed to squeeze a few more years of professional footballers pay out of it.
I don't think Pattersson is a great football but he shows more than Glatzel does, at least he makes the centre half work and knows when to jump for a ball.
A centre half would prefer to play against Galtzel every time.
Not sure why the desperation for a big target man ?
Some of our best striking years were with smaller players with pace such as Earnie, Chopra and McCormack.
I realize we had better midfield players during these times but perhaps we should be moving towards this style.
Many teams already are.
None of the strikers you mention would have been any good upfront on their own. They all played in a front 2 with a brilliant target man as a foil alongside them ie Thorne and Bothroyd in an era where most sides in the Championship played 442 v 442. The game has evolved, very few teams play with two upfront like those days and if we play 442 we get outnumbered in midfield like we did down the Liberty.
Even if we want to play football on the deck we still need a decent target man, comfortable with his back to goal that we can work off.
Not saying Glatzel has been great because he hasn't, I'd still persists with him over Moore though. You seen how many chances he needs for Wales? And those are supplied by better players.
At least by playing Glatzel and Tomlin we keep some hope of the style evolving (there is visual evidence of us at least taking baby steps even if it doesn't look the best right now) if we get Moore then it's in no doubt the road we are going down and I don't think I'd cope with that
Haven't really been on here all weekend as I've worked it all so wasn't aware we had made a bid or what Harris has said, you'd guess that though by my other post, obviously I wouldn't be calling it a rumour if I knew what the manager had said.
Got a link to it? I could do with depressing myself even more.
We dont want him anymore
interest ended... dont have to be genius to work it out... harris said on robs radio show afte rthe jack game that the 2 clubs were somewhat apart on valuation and would have to look elsewhere
