    His job is to be in a position to receive the ball, retain it, turn if possible and move the ball quickly into and through midfield or if prefereable to the situation put the pass down the line. His role is to drop into midfield not bomb on and put crosses in. This tactic is different to last season when the full backs went on the overlap and put in crosses. This season our two wingers are just that, traditional wingers. Im not saying the fullbacks can never overlap if the play dictates it right to do so but its not their primary role.

    Totally agree, But if his job isn't too overlap and his job is to defend, as already said Fozzy is a better Defender. I just don't see Roberts as an improvement on what we already have.

    Well if it was based on that game, no you wouldn’t, but it’s not just based on that game.

    The one time he beat his man with some good skill, he stopped and let the man get back in position. ?‍♂️
     

    But only Roberts and Wildsmith got any real credit for me and Thompson was unbelievably poor on the oppo end of the spectrum.

    Wildsmith? Really 

    I honestly thought he was the worst player on the pitch. Couldn’t kick, got beat at his near post. 
    bad positioning, he is no way an improvement on loach 

  3. I also think that where we have been under an Embargo we have had to let players leave for free or low cost which invites teams (Coventry) to take a gamble on our players instead of them being looked at by the Prem Teams. 

    Festy, Malcolm etc. have been placed in the shop window by helping us last Season and therefore at a Free or 500K gamble it's not a bad shot in the dark for a Championship Player who has played 10 games or so. 

    Lets be realistic we would of stayed up if we wasn't under Embargo for so long as we would of been able to keep the players and not play them as much as other players would of been in the positions blocking the way through. Credit to the Youth Team coaches and scouts to find players that would get into most championship sides. It's just a shame we could not do a Brentford with them and had them for 2 more seasons and sold them for X millions. 

    Look at Mount (Although not ours), Hendrick, Hughes etc playing at good Premiership levels for solid Premiership teams up till now.

    I am also a customer at Mel's local shop and I can confirm that he still arranges for his order of the Daily Mail to be picked up every morning. I can also confirm that Andy neither owns the shop nor does he work there. I hope this puts your mind at rest on such an important day for us all ??
