Dimmu Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Before we get a right fullback in, I'd go with three at the back. Luckily, there's still lots of time to get the players signed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The players we have out wide right now seem like they will be good going forwards but not much use covering at the back. It's a very specific skill set and not one that I think we have covered. NML for example is going to be seriously problematic for defenders in this league but he's not going to be bombing back to help out defensively. That's not a dig at him, it's just not what he should be doing. Crewton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a good tackler for one. Carnero, RamuelLJackson and SEAO 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be Knight or Mendez-Laing based on who we currently have signed up. I'm not convinced either of them have the disapline required. Let's hope we get a right back signed up soon.

I don't see it as a great long-term choice as I'd want him in midfield but he has the tackling ability and a fantastic engine, so he could absolutely handle it until there are better options Crewton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
