Reason Hucks is back to his best...

Recommended Posts

...because he''s finally given an attacking role rather than constantly being nagged to "get back and defend".

The guy can''t defend and never will be able to defend. Yesterday he was finally given his old role as a striker/winger/attacking midfielder and he caused all sorts of problems, popping up all over the pitch and scaring the Southampton defenders silly.

That''s the role he played in our Championship winning season and that''s the role he needs to play in future.

yes, its just the fact in the premierleague he couldnt free role as much and HAD to defend

 

but its taken so long to change back.... its quite worrying really

But what did any previous formation have to do with constantly running offside, failing to pass the ball (particularly to Drury) before running down blind alleys and looking a yard short of pace?

our central midfield pairing looked solid yesterday, they defended and

supported the attack well. robbo backed up hucks and drury well, giving

them options and support. this left hucks able to concentrate on what

he does best, create chances.

It was never a question of Hucks coming back to his best ...   its simply that Nigel has finally  admitted I`m right , and  given Hucks the support   he`s lacked all the way through our prem season ,and most of this season!   hopefully the days of  lobbing the ball to Hucks  on the left wing   , and standing off while  he gets kicked into the air  , are over ....

We`ve all seen what happens  when  Hucks  has players around him  to mix it with   ,  it scares the crap out of the defenders !!    Hucks well deserved reputation   has always  meant  he`s marked closely  [ surely the ultimate accolade ! ]  ,  Hucks   AND  support   , advancing mob handed  ,    and you have the defence in tatters  ...way to go [6]

Yes! Lets hope the lesson has been learned. With support on Saturday he was terrifying their defence. Whatever people have been saying, I don''t think that S''hampton have been playing too badly this season, a lot of the credit for Saturday has to go to our attacking display. I thought thought link up play was superb and the accuracy of Safri''s cross field passing had their defence all over the place. Lets hope we can keep it up.
