The_Sheriff Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Would like to have Max as our starting left back. Forsyth and Wisdom for rotation purposes with Bogle a regular on the right. With Max and Bogle as full backs we could do a lot worse! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those 2 are at least average players at this level and won’t improve unless they play regularly. I would give them both the season, yes a whole season, as starting full backs. See how they perform, ride the ups and downs. By next Summer, if they’ve proved they’re not progressing as hoped, you make a change. However, it’s as likely that they continue their progress and we have 2 highly talented full backs with a much higher value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
48 hours Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Agreed, but still think they would make excellent (attacking) wingbacks, with a back three defending behind them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do wonder if Cocu came to the conclusion that, while he liked both players, he maybe didn't want 2 young, fairly inexperienced, fullbacks in the team together. Especially given that both tend to get forward a little bit naively at times. I suspect if you look back over the second half of the season, there weren't many games where both of them started (that weren't forced by injury etc). Having a fairly inexperienced Matt Clarke and a bunch of random guys alongside him probably didn't help too. So maybe if Te Wierik settles quickly, and we get a decent left sided centre half too (or a more experienced Clarke back), we may see more of them playing together.

If we're seriously going for top 6, then I'm not sure we can achieve that with so many young/unproven players playing week in week out regardless, that would be fine if it was purely a transitional season, but you'd still risk burnout. With the season over a shortened time frame anyway, Lowe will no doubt get games in rotation, and it's up to him to make himself first choice more often than not. You could argue his highest level of interest and value was off the back of a full season in the SPL, although in an ideal world he'll still make it here.

Defensively both are very suspect in my opinion. I actually don't think Lowe's that bad at stopping crosses coming in. Bogle, on the other hand, I absolutely agree. Also not sure that the far post thing is a stick that you can use to beat them with. The 6'5'' Matt Smiths of the world will base their whole game plan on peeling off on to smaller full backs. Not much you can do unless you grow another half a foot or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 If Max Lowe leaves Derby it won't be for Millwall. With all due respect he is better than that Millwall in pretty much every way conceivable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rab a dab doo Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 I think we will end up selling one of our young prospects so raise funds for our rebuilding activities this summer. We must weary however that we sell who we want to sell and not necessarily the one we get the first offer on. To often in the past we have ended up selling talent cheaply,with no decent sell on or appearance bonus clauses etc. The money gain must also be spent wisely taking into the needs of the team,the financial situation of the club and the state of football as it is in at the moment. We must be very care with any funds we have or manage to gain as the short term future for football at moment is very uncertain (especially in respect to us and our tribunal 'problems') Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thekingofbuxton Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 I'm sure that last season Max was linked with a £1.5m move to Brentford. Thankfully we didn't sell. Many posters on here, myself included covert Brentford for their player recruitment model. In light of this alone we should keep Max. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
