[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] Well done LS46 [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106] would be great if your screamer from 35 yards would give us the 5 goal but never mind, save this one for Hibs [emoji6] Gesendet von iPhone mit Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Statto Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 He gave him 20 yards of space every time knowing that he's always cutting inside on to his left foot, meaning Sowah will always be goal-side of Waghorn when he gets the ball. It let us close down their options through the middle, it limited their attacking options. He stood up to Waghorn well, never lunging in, only once in the whole game that Waghorn got a shot away.

Thought we were slow to catch onto the long diagonal to MW and we were not always good at pushing him onto his weak side. Like wise "Super Barry". Sevco - so predictable.

eduardo.j Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Folk were moaning that he gave waghorn too much space, I pointed out that going tight would just leave him open to get turned, he gave him room but as soon as they played it to him he was aware and tracked him whilst closing the space down.

Sooperstar Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Keith Jackson gives Sowah a 5 and Waghorn a 6. That settles it then. He must have been struggling to see properly through his tears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glottis Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 I think Hearts intentionally left Waghorn acres of space because of how one sided he is. As soon as he went off, we tightened up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bainy Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 I thought he was great at the back. Few hair momments on the dodgy pitch but hes strong and good with the ball and has pace. As for waghorn he is so one footed its unreal you could see he was always trying to get it on his left foot. Pretty poor for a professional footballer. Also looks over weight and the hair deary me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he handled him brilliantly Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Exactly this. Watch any of the top full backs and they are never stuck tight to the attacker. They often give them the time to bring the ball down and turn. Might sound daft but it gives the full back the time to read and play the attacker rather than get skinned by the first touch, be it by skill or luck. It also allows them to cover the immediate danger that comes through the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

combo74 Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 I have to admit Sowah has probably impressed me the most out of the new recruits that have had a few games. Yes he's had a couple of shaky moments, however he is so strong and quick. The wide of Raith (replay), Celtic and Rangers have had little change out of him and I can't remember an occasion where he has been skinned or beaten for pace. Celtic realised this after about 20mins on Sunday, which is why everything went down Smith's side for the rest of the game. He is also very comfortable on the ball, with great skill. I've no idea how the DR can give him a 5...ridiculous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rattatooi Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 I'm glad someone brought this subject up. First half, Sowah gave Waghorn a lot of space and it was causing us problems. It's the reason I think Sevco got back in the game as they did. Something changed at half time and the space was not there. Perhaps Sowah got tighter but was there another change? Did Concalves track back more or Kitchen move wider? Was there a tactical change that snuffed out the threat? Whatever happened, Waghorn didn't last much longer.

I think he handled him brilliantly Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Look, lets be honest if we are going to assess a player. He lost track of Waghorn a few times and it caused us a problem or two and he had a spell where he didn't look like he was at it. Outwith that, and especially going forward, he was superb. Outwith that wee spell where they found Waghorn in space 3 or 4 times in quick sucession, yes I thought he handled him well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Bill Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 There's a few rough edges to Sowah's game but over all, I was really impressed with his energy, his physicality and his willingness to drive forward. Cathro will have a quiet word in his ear about the odd lack of concentration and defensive lapses but in general, I think he's found a real player here and the left back position is now his to lose as far as I'm concerned.

Other than the mix up trying to dribble out of the box he was solid. Sowah was great however the space Waghorn had was crazy at times. Balls hit deep and cross field seemed to find him in acres of space on more than a couple of occasions. Luckily he was mince and didn't do anything with the space afforded to him.

Bauld Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Waghorn can cause alot of problems for teams. He's small but build strong and has just enough pace to make him a problem. I'd actually go as far as to say he is probably a harder player to play against than Forrest at Celtic. Sowah is still new in the door and getting up to speed. I wouldn't say Sowah had his best game but perhaps he was up against his strongest test and overall I'd say he passed it well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
