O'Hare has 12 assists and 4 goals in the championship, who are the goalkeepers with a better record?
He doesn't get enough but don't make up nonsense.
Would like to see him out of the team for a run of games to see how we get on. At least it’ll settle the whole “you wont realise how much he offers until he’s gone” debate that’s pandered about.
He was out of the side midweek and when he came on our pace of game immediately improved.
Did it? Granted we scored once he came on but I feel like after that we were more on the back foot? Played much better when he was off the pitch IMO.
Exactly this, him and Hamer move the ball in different ways. We are much less ponderous with them on the pitch. Even if they don't create chances themselves they buy space for others to.
Sometimes when players are closing him down he just boots it as far away from him as he can to avoid a 50-50 / a clattering
Don't blame him. He's not been protected by one referee this season. Unfortunately without the pressure on referees at this level it won't change.
Brilliant to see O'Hare getting blamed for today. Usual suspects obviously.
Two good chances and two good saves today. Carried the ball well, some neat touches. Middlesbrough did their job of whacking him whenever they could.
Had O'Hare missed the 6/7 chances Shipley or Allen have missed on the last two weeks, people would be calling for him to drop into the under 23s.

He's created countless chances this season that have been missed.. If as a team we were even a little bit more lethal with our finishing he'd be up there with the top assisters in the league. Interesting that unbiased opposition fans rave about him.. including Boro fans today whilst our fountains of football knowledge call his performance"shocking". Embarrassing.
He's missed those chances all season and last, not just the last couple of games.
Missed an easy chance today by hitting it at the keeper (better than Shipley's abomination though).
Aye, they all missed good chances. As have the whole team throughout most of the season.
I think it was @shmmeee who posted he’s outperforming his “xA”. In simple terms the data says they’ve finished more than they should
Undoubtedly frustrating, but that's partly because he never hides, always offers himself as an option, so is *always* there whenever we attack.
Allen has played 22 times and has one assist. O'Hare 27 and has 4.
Both need to be better but no one is criticising the rest.
If we’re going to play one up this isn’t even a question TBF because we can replace Allen/Shipley instead with a goal scoring AM
as when he goes into the box he falls to pieces….
Bollocks. There were two spells before he was on the pitch where they dominated possesion, would never have happened with him in the side Boosh
