Hirst really is out of form and confidence 20:43 - Oct 17 with 1105 viewsDublinBlue84

His finishing and decision making woeful the last few games.

Hope he goes on and scores but if he doesn't I think his place cannot be assured.

You could see exactly where that pen was going before he even stouched it.

He's washed. Same as Szmodics.

Not good enough.

We have upgraded a lot of the team but desperately need a quality striker.

Last year Hurst looked like he was developing, this year he looks a league 1 player.

It's annoying but a missed pen tells you nothing about form. And it wasn't lacking confidence. Keeper just gone wrong way and saved it.

Annoying but performance wise this isn't great.

Rubbish.

He basically handed the goalkeeper a sheet of paper and told him where to go it was that obvious.

I think his performances have been poor. All of our recent form has come from midfield genius.

His confidence is completely shot. Anyone can see that from the last few games and the extra touches he takes on chances

Our away form is woeful.

Hirst is very poor. KM has to make changes at half time. Nowhere near good enough.

As for the penalty - dear or dear.

He's really struggling this season. Just not doing the basics well enough in terms of using or protecting the ball.

I was born underwater, I dried out in the sun. I started humping volcanoes baby, when I was too young.

He is our worse and least valuable player and by a long chalk. He is not good enough to go high or has the balls to go down the middle. So he goes one way and at a savable height and you know that before he takes it. I can’t fathom how he’s on pens when Billy puts them more accurate from 25 yards. Don’t forget he also missed vs Bromley.

What like the first time shot that might have been a penalty

It wasn't a terrible penalty though. Could've been better of course, but it's not like he skied it or went half-hearted.

Problem is of course is it was like a goal for them. And then of course they've got the goal so a double whammy. The only good thing is that half-time came so soon after. Good time to remind the players that they're doing OK, but explain where we need to sharpen up.

KM never makes half time changes. 70 min tinkering.

He's not been at his best but the reaction here is because he's just missed a pen. He scores that one and this thread doesn't exist and he's 4 goals in 9.

I just don't really know why he's on pens. He's just not great at them..

Really? Some were saying he was not far off Delap and we wouldn't miss Liam a few months ago.

I was never one of them, but some here had that dreadful take.

Trouble is KM will make changes on 70 mins, when we need them at the beginning of the second half

We've spent loads of cash on mercurial midfield talent and have him upfront. Doesn't make sense to me.

I think the 10 position is a massive concern for us. Not linking up the play, leaving Hirst isolated.

We've got Azon. He'll get his chance if Hirst doesn't get back on it.

He'll get in tonight anyway won't he.

Think it's fair to say he's been quite poor. His movement is still good and has always been his strength, but his touch has deserted him - seems to take him 2-3 touches to get it fully under control and his one touch passing is incredibly inconsistent.

The penalty was telegraphed. You can tell by the run up which way he's going, and he's put it perfect height for the keeper. The very sign of a player with no confidence.

Last championship season he had no pressure because we had no viable replacement - wouldn't be surprised to see Azon start getting more minutes. We can't have any passengers and Philogene can only do so much in the scoring department.

That does seem bizarre even from our fan base. I don’t recall. Maybe for our system he done things similar to delap. But his finishing is poor which is bad for a striker! Delap on the other hand felt very confident with him at the penalty spot.

He won’t come off until 70 mins though.

As per..

The very sign of a player with not enough ability I’m afraid.
Bit of a problem for the side…
