needles Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Bit of an aside...Was YouTubing to convince my 10 year old we used to be a good side recently and found Nick Pickering belting in a winner at Old Trafford. I'd totally forgotten about that, and for this alone I almost forgive him for the rest of his career. (Good England one cap wonder if the question ever comes up an'll).

Dimmu Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Keiron freeman at left back is a better option than Forsyth for me, suppose he'll have another chance tomorrow. If he is poor again though it has to be time to get a replacement in. I agree. I would rather Freeman than Forsyth. I've never seen him play as a LB so can't really agree or disagree. But the fact that I've never seen him as a LB doesn't exactly fill me with confidence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the fact that I've never seen him as a LB doesn't exactly fill me with confidence He played as LB in one game last season and looked solid. However, even at RB, Freeman was lacking defensively so I don't think he's the solution for the LB issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sage Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Excellent today. Contender for man of the match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YorkshireRam Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Excellent today. Contender for man of the match. I agree, he played well. I thought Wisdom was probably better though, he was my MOTM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester Ram Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Been saying it for weeks, he's a very good LB at this level (on his day). The more he plays, the better he'll get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curtains Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Been saying it for weeks, he's a very good LB at this level (on his day).

rsmini Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Forsyth was excellent today, he puts in some superb crosses. So unlucky in the first half when was was knocked just past the post. When it should have been tapped in. His defending was far better as well. Perhaps players are now starting to realise there is competition for place at last Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sage Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 If Schteve does go for a replacement, then I reckon he may go for Tiendelli from Swansea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIMBAUD Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 if we replace forsyth with a better player then our squad starts to look pretty decent i reckon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich3478 Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 I hate Forsyth usually, thought he was class today though! Fair play to him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Tibbs Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Play him at LM and I wouldn't have a problem, he's still the big weak link in our creaky defence. Got done by Antonio 2 or 3 times in the second half too easily and we were grateful for some lucky bounces and poor forward play. Better teams have and will punish us. Going forward he's spot on. His delivery is 99% of the time superb, unlucky not to set another goal up in the first half with his ball to the near post which was saved well by Kirkland.

Alph Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 A well overdue up to scratch performance. Well done fella. Same again. Got some ground to make up imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Srg Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 I'm not a Forsyth basher like many, but really pleased with how he played. Hoofed it a few times, but they did seem necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaddesdenRam Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 He desperately needs confidence in his game. When I have watched him he looks as though he is concentrating no end on getting his first touch right. When that should come naturally and really he should be thinking 2 or 3 steps ahead like where will I pass after the touch and then should I pass then move Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TroyDyer Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 I've never seen him play as a LB so can't really agree or disagree. But the fact that I've never seen him as a LB doesn't exactly fill me with confidence Have you not seen his tats and barnet? It's all I need to know.

G STAR RAM Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Find it amazing that Clough was lambasted for 'square pegs in round holes' (rightfully so in my opinion, but now we have people wanting a right back to play left back?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be inspired thinking or flexibility now. We've already had sticking with the same players transformed from being stubborn to picking a settled team.
