Not just because of his goal, but more so because his penalty miss came to nothing. He's not the most gifted and he does struggle a bit with the physical side of the championship, although he works so hard, doesn't shit out of challenges and doesn't hide, even when things aren't going his way. I'm glad that the penalty miss isn't going to effect his confidence to much.
It wasn’t a bad pen it was a great save to be fair.
Only saw the 2nd half but thought he was a handful. Didn’t stop working.
He's wearing a blue shirt
Up the city
Not the most gifted is very harsh, he's he's struggled with the physical side but he has potential without a doubt.Quote:

A firmer strike would have made it a lot more difficult for the ‘keeper to ‘beat’ the ball. Placed penalties look clever and great when the goalie goes the wrong way but on target pens with lots of pace invariably end up in the back of the net.
It might be interesting to note that half of Glatzel's goals for us (5 from 10) have been scored within the first 10 minutes of him playing, either as a starter or sub. With his penalty miss, he has still only scored 1 goal after being involved in a game for more than 45 minutes.
'Very' harsh? I could take just 'Harsh' :hehe:Quote:

I like him and he definitely has something about him but he has never quite kicked on for us.
Good to see him get one tonight and be interested to see how he goes with a prolonged spell in the team. Good that we came back and won and that the penalty didn't cost us points too.
He's 27 in three weeks' time.Quote:

He's very honest, i like that about him, he does some good stuff around the box, he's just lacking that little bit that would make him a really good player at this level.Quote:

He’s got something about him and could get on a scoring run if we play the ball into the right positions for him.
He’s no worse than Zohore was for most of his city career and much better than Rudy Gestede.
you beat me to it! :hehe:Quote:

We'll settle on moderately harsh 😄Quote:

I suppose the question is, should a £5 million player be a back up for a club like us?
I think the question still is he good enough to be our back up striker.Quote:

Agreed but it is good to see him scoring.Quote:

So did Bamford, Similar attributes (no doubting Bamford has proven though) now with a change of style at Leeds he's banging them in again where in the Champ he definitely struggledQuote:
