Will Hoskins goal

[Hornblower]

Great goal, question is, would CMS have scored?

I liked the way he stayed goal side of the defender to still be onside for lopez to be able to put him through............. proper striker.

Spot on, brilliant positioning. Hope he he can push on now.

That moment alone was worth the effort of dragging myself out of my sickbed to go today. Well chuffed for him.

Yeah let's hope so, he nutmegged their keeper in true striker style.

Heaven knows!
Hope Hoskins stays.

Great goal overall but nothing beats his face after the goal. Looked ecstatic.

Great goal and played well when he came on. Very dodgy boots though. And Hammond for that matter!

He wouldn't have been in the right position. Hoskins is so much better positionally, definitely deserves a start vs Derby imo.

He's a good player who just hasn't had the rub of the green. He is capable of getting goals all day long in the chanpionsgip

The precision through-pass from Spanish Dave made all the difference.

Sadly for CMS, this. I thought CMS looked thoroughly pissed off at the service he was receiving quite a few times.

Agree and if he was his first touch would have left him near the corner flag.

To be fair, CMS didn't get much service, but as I say, I think it's in a large part down to his positioning. He always makes runs down the wing down a blind alley, he needs to be running at the centre backs who are most likely slower and trying to create good goalscoring opportunities.

Am I right in thinking that was Hoskins first competitive goal for us?

Like Hoskins did quiet a few times

Nope. Scored against Cardiff at the start of last season before he got injured.

Nope he scored against Cardiff away last season

He was only on the pitch for 19 minutes and we were playing quite deep. He was isolated but did a far better job than CMS.

 

[Rich Suvner]

Have been a staunch supporter of CMS, but have to say today he looked out of place and Hoskins runs and positioning looked a class above and with a bit of luck he could have scored another after taking his goal briliantly. Got to be given a run in the side now surely.

I'm a fan of CMS, but am not convinced he's a lone target man, as we often play him, and there are definitely aspects of his game that need improving - such as touch. Hoskins' simple run from an offside position off CBs shoulder was classic centre forward play, and something we don't see enough of from CMS.
