[Briles]

MOTM last 2 games for me. So composed and so alert. Crazy hes came with us from league 2. Absolute Pro

I know I’m going to get pelters here but I disagree. He plays people on loads and his use of the ball is awful. He’s very good at getting his head to it but I want more from a Championship CB.

 

[steve101]

He not only seems stronger but quicker. He was a bit deep early on which kept them onside but then quickly made up for it by getting across his man. He reads the game really well. I hope we are negotiating a new contract with him.

Completely disagree. He's got the most nouse out of all our cbs. Fadz is the unit, salter is the ball player and hyam brings it all together by being good at everything

 

[PVA]

Has been underrated on here for a long time.

He was superb tonight.

Pass completion rate - passes per game:

JCS: 74.2% - 31.8
Fadz: 74% - 47.3
Hyam - 73.6% - 52.4


He makes more passes than the other CBs and his completion rate is near enough identical.

If his use of the ball is awful then so is Fadz and JCS.

Personally I think they're all very comfortable on the ball.

Great again tonight. Then again so were McFadzean and Clarke-Salter.

 

[Martin180]

He’s always reminded me of Trevor Peake , albeit at a lower standard , but he’s always been very composed and consistent

What game were you watching ?

 

[WestEndAgro]

Colossal tonight

 

[steve101]

Keiffer Moore causes international teams headaches due to his aerial ability. Tonight he hardly won anything. In the main due to McFadzean but Hyam and Clarke-Salter were also superb with their heading.

Nothing if not predictable. One misplaced pass and it's confirmation bias. Was the same with McCallum last year.

How's Moore doing?

 

[SBT]

When you have a limited budget, you need players like Hyam to step up and do a job for you. It’s all well and good saying we should upgrade on him, but a capable replacement at this level will cost a lot more than Hyam. The fact that he’s doing a more than capable job allows us to strengthen elsewhere - he’s playing an incredibly important role.

 

[Sbarcher]

Best defensive record in the Division.

 

[Greggs]

Must have found some good vegan chicken, he's a beast now!

How's Moore doing?

Called Moore one of our best signings earlier, sorry.

Its not one misplaced pass, twice first half he played an attacker on the other side of the pitch on, something he does a lot and has cost us a goal this season. And his general control and use of the ball is way below the other two CBs. Compare the balls Dabo gets to what Maatsen gets from JCS: night and day.

I’m not saying he’s shit, I’m saying he’s the weakest of the three on the ball. He one of the best for getting his head on things he has no right to and he works hard. I just think he lacks concentration and quality sometimes.

We’re a championship side that plays out from the back, just being a decent defender isn’t enough if we’re going to move to the next level.

 

[covcity4life]

He's fucking phenomenal considering he a league 2 development signing. Agreed he was immense today

This is spot on and it's a habit you need to get out of shmeee

Honestly? I think the fact you have to suffix your comment with “for a L2 player” says it all for me.

He's phenomenal because of that

He's very good if you want to take that out of it.

Big part of this season in isolation let alone last 4 years

No room for sentiment where we’re going.

Where are we going? Cant be prem if hyam not good enough for championship ?

 

[Hutch11]

The back 3 were all superb , hardly lost a header or a challenge between them , were always available to play out from the back and deserve all the plaudits.
And having said all that , Hyam was the best of them all , simply oozes class

 

[DannyThomas_1981]

Related to this Clarke-Salter is starting to really impress.

Far better balance with a real LCB, allowing Hyam to perform at a high level in his preferred RCB position.

 

[Martin180]

He’s 25 and still improving , has he made the same amounts of errors McFadz has made ? I’m a huge fan of both but I think Hyam still has a huge part to play in our future progression

is this another “ let’s find a scapegoat “ even when we are flying currently ?

 

[Tommo1993]

So so underrated, it’s unbelievable.

So so underrated, it’s unbelievable.

There’s literally a thread every week saying he’s the next Baresi…

 

[clint van damme]

I've not been his biggest fan but he was incredible tonight.
His reading of the game and subsequent covering was superb.

Couldn't agree more! Right side of a back 3 and playing sweeper. Mental. He has gone up another gear this season.

Hopefully the delay in him signing was due to discussions on signing him permanently at the end of it.

He retired when I was 4, give me a chance.

 

[Wyken Sky Blue]

 

[Tommo1993]

He was signed for League Two and has certainly stepped up to be a very good performer two levels higher. It’s no sentiment, it’s fact.

He was signed to play in our U-23 squad , the improvement he has made has been nothing short of incredible

 

[rob9872]

All 3 cb were phenomenal tonight and have been in most games. Rose can consider himself unlucky not to be in as I think he's as good as any of them, but no way in for him at the minute.
