cannable Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Lampard traditionally played on the left of a midfield three, making runs from deep into the box and scoring. He played late on into his thirties. Bryso plays in the same position and in a similar vein to Lampard but his body keeps breaking down. Bryso still pretty much plays how he did in his 20s which could be why he keeps picking up niggles. I wonder if Lampard can effectivley prolong Bryso’s career and his output having played in the same position and the same function into his late thirties. He should, theoretically, be able to transfer what gave him longevity to Brys, be it managing his minutes or slightly altering his game etcetera.

RiddingsRam Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Don't see any reason why not , it would make me so happy for Bryson to become good for us again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleEatonRam Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Most players have one standout season. Bryson's is behind him, but he's still a useful player at this level. I hope he gets another crack at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kash_a_ram_a_ding_dong Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Would absolutely like too see Bryson thrive for at least one last season...when he's good,he's untouchable. Him,martin,Lawrence,vydra and thorne firing on all cylinders under lampard? I need to visit the men's room,excuse me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sexydadbod Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 I’d only keep him as back up if we are playing 4-3-3. He really struggled for Cardiff last season with his fitness and could only perform in short bursts but he’d be perfect in the winter months to be used for rotation purposes. Bryson is best in the shuttle runner position moving from zone 8 to zone 10 so the other two midfielders would need to be disciplined to cover the space vacated by Bryson. I’d keep Bryson, Guy and Elsnik as the back ups for the two advanced centre midfield positions. Sell Johnson, Butterfield, Ledley in midfield and buy/loan two starter midfielders. Then Huddlestone/Thorne as the defensive midfielders with their passing range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1967Ram Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 A player like Bryson is sorely missed in our team IMO. It's not the more obvious stuff he does that's so important to the team though it's the selfless running he does. In a match he covers nearly every blade of grass. He doesn't always get the ball but what his running does is 'create space' for others. He is a very intelligent player when off the ball. It would not surprise me at all to see him find form again for Derby under Frank, especially as I think Frank will try to play a style of football which will 'fit' Bryson's attributes better.

He’s get plenty left just needs a run of 10 games and we’ll get classic Bryson back. He has a Merlin engine and ghosts into space. I suspect Frank will see his quality very quickly.

He is rough around the edges but has the power. And his preferred position on the pitch is broadly similar The other thing that hangs in the air is George. What will happen ? Who knows when so much is about the toll serious injuries take. .. Mac always played GT as a central DM but at this level there was nothing more Lampardesque than GT striding through the middle and letting rip with a pile driver. Who knows ? A positive preseason and a king reborn ? Crossing my fingers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt Bryson’s wages are that big of a problem. Mel said not long after the PO final defeat we had signed our first £20k a week player, seeing as CB signed that 5 year deal my guess is it was him. I’d also speculate that the majority of the players signed during the clement debacle were signed on more than £20k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
