Hooper Today...

What you on young forest put great balls into the box in the first half Bangura should have scored with his head .

 

sorry but hooper was everywhere he just didn't get the service the day. as a team we where *

 

Hooper's not been good for weeks
He's not been his usual self
He's been very lazy

 

i sat the whole game positive bangura was a lone striker and hooper was lying back midfield or something, i never seen him once the whole first half and i think he had one decent attacking move

 

He's not been the same this season. He's had a few good goals such as the one against rangers but he just doesn't seem happy and I think he knows he will play week in week out which shouldn't be the case.

 

Holy * never realised that but your bang on.

 

Lenny's fault for not taking him off. Even when Hooper's playing badly he leaves him on. He shouldn't be untouchable.

 

hooper the new sammy? team were going through the motions at times defence were sloppy at times but once again our mids allow opposing mids to free space at 1st goal ki was ball watching while skacel ran away into space to score

 

Was thinking the same whilst watching him the day,lazy ,whingy imposter to the great wee player he was last season..

 

I only seen the 2nd half but I thought he did well, only player who was linking up with people.

 

Not for me... didn't go looking for enough work!

 

hes been really * for a while, but i think chopping and changing the stikers isnt working look at last year...Hooper Stokes for most the games apart from injurys etc. and it worked well....why change it?

 

Hate Hoopers attitude, arms up moaning if a ball isn't inch perfect through to him, staying offside, getting caught offside alot, I have played with strikers like that before when in midfield and it grinds away at you the constant moaning and negative attitude in general, not my favourite type of striker but fair play to him he has been scoring the goals unlike Samaras, Stokes, Bangura etc, and we have bigger problems than him.

 

this is what he is turning into

 

Had no service but his attitude is * disgraceful needs to get a grip.

 

Terrible performance, one of many lately. Looks uninterested, get the feeling he wanted to leave in the transfer window. Seems to just moan and complain constantly when not playing with Stokes, then when he is, they do nothing.

 

Hooper was poor today. He's started moaning far too often as well. Half the time he's at fault.

 

There were a good few in that boat today

 

Gettin really * off with Hooper. He is living on his reputation from last season, as at the moment, he wouldnt get a game with St Mirren.
Absolutely woeful start to the season from him

And the worst thing is, Lenny canny see past him. If the two strikers are playin bad, Hooper always stays on the pitch. Just like today, Bangura was by no means playing great, but at least he was trying to get involved and making runs. Yet Lenny takes him off and keeps Hooper playing.

IMO, Stokes is a better striker

 

I think he was more * off at the fact of not getting better balls put to him earlier. He makes his runs but doesn't get the pass or when it comes through too late he's offside. I think that's why he's so *. Too many times the ball was crossed too late to him or players like Commons were taking on 30 yard pot shots instead of playing a better ball.

Bangura was crap today I thought. Yeh brilliant running, huffed and puffed a lot but got nowhere. First touch was far to heavy a lot of the time, a few final balls were woeful and he missed a guilt-edge header that should have put us in front. Replace the name Bangura with Samaras and people would be * and moaning because this is what Samaras usually does.

For me it was the right decision to sub Bangura for Stokes. For me, I think Stokes and Hooper should start every match. They clicked last year so well and if they can get starts more together then there's no reason why it shouldn't click again this year.
