6 goals in 5 games. He is like us and wish we could play them every week. Not bad considering they are the 2nd best team in the Championship.How many goals has Haji now scored against Boro since coming us?
The Wright debate should never have been a thing. He’s our best forward and one of the best in the division. Simple
What I thought was great Josh took the ball and stood over the penalty spot while the debate was going on .Therefore taking any pressure off Haji.Was a brilliant penalty
Is that a toast?To good tonight.
Exactly.To think there shouldn't be a debate about a striker who performed like he did for 2 or 3 months is delusional.
The only thing I would say is some people were saying he's shit, which clearly he isn't, but he is prone to spells of poor performances.
I said if he starts firing we'll get autos, hopefully that will be the case.
Wow.....If we dion't go up you could see a big European side coming in for him...a la VikWright has now over took Vik for goals scored
Wright 112apps 45 goals
Gyokeres 110apps 43 goals

Pffffff.........Could you
I needed to get away quickly last night so I watched the last few minutes on a monitor in the concourse, Sky showed a close up of Hellberg's face near the end, he looked like he was trying and failing to think of something he could do to rescue the position, he must have been mere seconds away from his brain melting.I dunno why anyone is surprised, he's a streaky striker who frustratingly looks dogshite when he/the team is off form but is equally capable of blowing teams away.. That's the championship in a nutshell. Anyone more consistent is cherry picked way earlier and wouldn't be playing for us.
Likewise I find it weird how people are so binary in their thinking generally with our team, good or bad... it's not that simple. Nobody in this league is consistent, teams will come in and out of form. There isn't a Burnley/Leeds style machine this year.
To my eye Boro looked impotent today, they looked the ones with no plans B, all tippy happy stuff not really threatening.. whereas the whole narrative is Lampard rigid tactically and struggling. We scored a lovely flowing move AND a classic Wimbledon style hoof.
I feel like we need to give them some slack for the wobble, illness, big players coming back from injury, silly red cards, overworking Grimes, then other teams picking up the pace. It looked worse than it was. We are more than capable of getting back into the grove we had pre December.
Thankfully Onyeka might be exactly the catalyst to get some belief back in the squad and the stands
It would just be nice to see that performance even if he doesnt score that desire, the fight, the hunger and passion. He was immense last night and if he plays that way more often he wont be questioned againRealistically no striker will score every good chance they have
Realistically all strikers have cold patches
Haji wright is a good striker
Second was such a good finishHaji does need to kick on now and get himself consistently scoring the goals to get us over the line, they do usually seem to come in a glut for him - IE when he scored his hattrick against Sunderland last season and then did not score for the rest of the season
On his day he is unplayable and one of if not the best in the division
Wright does this though. He has a hattie and then goes missing for weeks but what was great to see from him was extra desire, closing down and generally looked more up for it. I guess he always is up for it but his body language often gives off hes not. Last night he was bang up for it and the 3 goals topped it off. Back to this best last night and we need him like that.
Was a brilliant penalty
Was so proud I was able to watch as I can’t normally but I certainly couldn’t celebrate.Someone mentioned on another thread...he's genuinely brilliant at penalties. Calm as you like and has slotted in some decent pens.
Only one missed in his time here and that was when he slipped.Someone mentioned on another thread...he's genuinely brilliant at penalties. Calm as you like and has slotted in some decent pens.
Didn't the turf give way beneath his foot?Only one missed in his time here and that was when he slipped.
