Tomer Hemed

[Triggaaar]

Stockdale would have saved it

He'd need long arms from back there.

 

[Machiavelli]

If Stockdale hadn't saved it, NSC would have gone into a 20-page meltdown

Corrected for you

His career with Brighton has really been on a knife-edge for a while now. He's obviously looked desperate to score, to contribute to our success, for quite some time, I'm thinking for example about that despairing lunge at Stephens' volley up at Blackburn and seemingly not as excited to celebrate Dale's goal as everyone else. The penalty at Fulham was really crucial, and possibly career-defining, having grappled the ball off Murray, if he'd have missed it would have been awful for him individually...... tonight was similar, the chance he missed having been given the opportunity to lead the line on his own could have set him back so to eventually score tonight, the winner as well, was really important. I wouldn't be surprised if he now goes on and scores a lot more the rest of the way

`I think he HAS to play on Saturday. if he scores again he'll be feeling very confident going in to the run in.

My Albion man of the match last night. It's a shame that when he is called upon, he has the lightweights of Murphy & March round him

 

[Steve in Japan]

I do like to see a big centre forward turn, spin and crack the ball into the net. Shearer-esque I thought. Nice one Tomer.

 

[Lower West Stander]

Hmm. Great goal which lets him off but not a patch on Murray.

I'd be worried if we were relying on him for the rest of the season.

I was again reminded how good Hemed is on the ball. Strong, can turn a player (not just for the goal) good passing.

Also his goal scoring record is not that bad for us, 1 in 3. Given his chances have been cut to sub appearances largely this season that IS a good record.

Hemed and Duffy were my 2 MOTM last night.

Considering the amount of football he has had, and the lack of support for large parts of the game he did very well.

You won't see a better back up striker in this league, it does not seem right to call him that given his goal record and quality he has.

Also wont have done Murray any harm to have another extended break, he will come firing for Huddersfield hopefully

Lets him off what? Your criticism?

Exactly. Hemed is a good player.

Excellent game last night - especially as neither March nor Murphy gave him much assistance

 

[ditchy]

Not sure that squandered the right word: he had to stretch for it. I thought he was more annoyed because Knocky was giving him an earful and he realised that he should have left it.

But what a strike that was, nearly took McGregor's hand off - one of the goals of the season

Murray would have saved it

 

[Perkino]

I actually think with his attributes that he may do better in the Premiership than he has done in the championship

 

[MattBackHome]

He has been magnificent for the last 2 games. He's actually getting better.

To be fair, all of our squad would look better playing in Scotland.

 

[Stat Brother]

FFS you people do realise you're talking about the fella who scored 17 goals last season, while being dead horse flogged in every game.

He's now scored 22 (or 25) in 65 games, and most of you are talking like he's Leon not the Best who's amazed us all with an adequate performance.


Tomer has been fookin brilliant for a season and a half, and fantastic value for money.
Stop being so patronising.

It's ok to like Murray and Tomer.

 

[cooliobhafc]

Great professional, does give his all. I am sure he looks faster this year. When he has come off the bench he has showed excellent pace at times. What a strike, great turn and in. His first touch does need work, he did lose the ball a few times as a result of this last night and has through the season. What a team, we have, this is Dreamland.

 

[aolstudios]

Was he giving him an earful, I thought he gave him a hug

Earful, then a hug

 

[Whoislloydy]

22 goals in 65 league games, not a shabby return at all!

Especially for someone who cost under £1million

 

[Biscuit]

It's often said that 'Murray would have scored that' when Hemed misses a glit-edge chance, but yesterdays goal was very Hemed. Not something Murray would have scored IMO.



So pleased for Tomer.
