Is that the Shipley who is Coventrys highest scoring Midfielder in over 10 Years?

That's quite an interesting stat - first time I've heard that referred to, and makes sense when you consider our history over that time.A slump, followed by a rise (with most of his goals as we rose from the 'trough period' I suspect)
That isn't difficult is it?

Hamer is a holding midfielder
Thought about this before, but he is a sort of holding midfielder who likes to wander a lot !!

I would say Sheaf is more the holding midfielder and Hamer is more a ball-playing midfielder. He's given a bit more freedom and even though he does play next to Sheaf I think he'd be alright playing slightly further forward. Maybe use that passing to create chances, plus he might get the chance to shoot a bit more.

Hamer is a box to box midfielder and Sheaf is a deep lying playmaker

Set to defend or support?

While I still don't think burden, this is unforgivable to pass it along the floor straight at the keeper.
Maatsen has offered much more in 2 games at AM.
People are blinded by the fouls won stats that are pretty much meaningless.
He could do with a break, the issue is we have nobody to put in. Not even Bright.
That statistic is dire.

So if I have this right - O’Hare is now a liability because after weaving through two or three defenders out of nowhere, he didn’t subsequently score the goal of the season?
It was an easy chance to miss after an incredible piece of skill - do people really get that upset by it?

But he creates soooooo many chances for everyone else!

No, he has missed sitters throughout his time with us. It isn't a one-off occurrence,
It wouldn't have been goal of the season, it was a simple finish into the corner. Good skill beforehand but it's absolutely pointless when passing it back to the keeper. Little bits of skill are absolutely pointless when you do nothing with it.
He is being praised for running alongside Hamer when he set Gyo up, that is the levels we are working at because it's O'Hare. Grendel will no doubt be along to say that O'Hare running there meant the goalie was put off so Gyo wouldn't have scored otherwise so he made the goal.

Rather have a player that can out skill 2 players before missing !
I meant it was an easy chance, which he went on to miss.
But how many Championship players would have even created the chance in the first place? Let alone fucking internet randos.

Rather have a player that just puts the ball in the corner when they get a chance to be honest.

He is saving it for playoff final
One. Serious note I don't understand why he doesn't just smash the ball like he did for his goal Vs reading last season at close range

It isn't just that one, it's more weeks than not.
Think back to some of those where the keeper has been miles off their line with him just outside the box and he doesn't get the ball off the ground and just plays it along the floor back to them.
It isn't a one time thing, even in that position I didn't get excited that he was going to score. Literally anybody else I would be getting ready to celebrate it.
Yeah, he presses really well and has an amazing engine but that's all he offers us in the majority of games.
Not all his fault as we really should have somebody else who can slot in to give him a rest.
Who else on our team creates that chance tonight? Did Fabio Tavares do it against Solihull U23s or something?

This is o hare in a nutshell. If you wanted to show anyone who'd never seen him player before exactly the kind of player he is. Show them that clip. Excitement, close control, skill, trickery, and then....that

Everything he did before the shot was wasted, he would of been better off letting the ball go out for a goal kick!
It's not as if it's the first time it's happened.
He's actually a very good player, but he's the worst finisher in the squad, the stats prove it. He needs a rest, but unfortunately we don't have anyone who can be dropped in there, but I'm sure that will be rectified next season.

This is why you have pundits and opposition fans going mad for him. After you see those misses most weeks it's not the same as watching him for one game or a clip online.
Gyo, the guy who you said may as well be sitting in the stands tonight? (Before he scored the winner, of course)
Pretend all you like that O’Hare is a net negative for this team, thankfully most of our fans can appreciate the good work he puts in to get us where we are.

Not really, it's just when you seem to go over the top it means people point things like this out in return.
It was an embarrassing miss, one of many this season.

Honestly your vendetta is pathetic, he offers a lot more than just running and pressing.
