But for me the rest of the game was more than just service, his whole body language looked better than previously, his touch when dropping deep was good, his passing was sharp, he did a little back heel, a nice knock down with his head. Just looked a much more confident player. We need those levels of confidence for that hull game. It was a really good performance of a lone striker. O'Hare did well but I'd love to see Grealish just behind him 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted July 23, 2017 Author Share Posted July 23, 2017 Hogan was a beast out there. Whats really exciting is seeing how elmo linked up with him. With all our creative players elmo in one game has manged to show more than all of the others last season who can gel with hogan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give him time and I'm sure he'll become ponderous, static and lethargic. Edited July 23, 2017 by sne 2 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Posted July 23, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted July 23, 2017 Tbf to him he has started all the friendliest well....just that his fitness has improved (who would have thought that in preseason!) and the goal visibly took the pressure off him. what a difference 45 mins can make!

I didn't think he started the Shrewsbury game well at all. He barely touched the ball and defenders had an easy day. Completely different player today.

alreadyexists Posted July 23, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted July 23, 2017 He looked sharp, dangerous, quick, and really was brilliant in that 45 mins. If he plays that well in the league he'll get goals, and if he gets goals and plays that well with Kodjia in the side... I'm going to have to stop as my penis has become engorged. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrentVilla Posted July 23, 2017 Moderator Share Posted July 23, 2017 There has been some absolute tripe posted about him in the last week, glad today he helped confirm that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 What the hell happened to Hogan today, actually looked like the player we signed. Makes me wonder how fit he was after recovering from this ankle injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob182 Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Our players need to know that he should not be given a long, high ball. He is dreadful at winning a header or even jumping to attempt to reach one! As shown today, the ball played along the floor to him is a completely different story..

Johnnyp Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 You give a good striker good service and he'll put the ball in the net. Who knew! Anyway, will keep a lid on today, treat it for what it was. Hull saturday week is what matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
