Asanovic Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I can't believe this is even a question! Barker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagerbob Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I was starting to ask myself the question when , at the beginning of the season we played so well as a team. But since barker has been back, he's been derbys best defender. if theres any question (which there isnt) it would be shackell or OB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramesses Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I’d go for Shaun (barely average) Barker 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CumbrianRam Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Bit unfair to compare a 19 year old to a player with 300+ apperances. Give OB time, he isn't the finished article yet, he wasn't meant to play so much this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alph Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 OB isn't as good in the air as Barker. His distribution is terrible and he is often guilty of naive diving in. But Barker has experience. He should be better. OB is alright for his lack of experience. Imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bris Vegas Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Barker needs to work on his positioning and distribution.. He's a mountain in the air though, perfect for playing against the longball teams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSD Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 OB has got the potential to play as good, maybe even better than Barker. However right now, Barker 110%. Experience and quality counts for everything as a CB 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alph Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Are Hull and Leeds long ball teams then Bris Leeds and WHU are. Hull though are a good footballing side. And Barker tends to look awesome under constant pressure. It's rare attacks where he gets caught out isn't it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Day Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 If your captains fit and available for selection he should be the first name on the team sheet. Barker is our captain, fit and available for selection so Barker plays. Simples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyB Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Barker no doubt, but OB has time to improve further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfb Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I wish OB a speedy recovery, until i see if he comes back the same player, i shall wait to comment..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DcFc Dyycheee Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Barker is our best defender by far, O' Brien is good, but not quite there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RotherhamRam Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 This is a bit of pointless question. Barker by far has to partner Shackell. Any doubts watch the last 3 home games along with today lost at Ipswich through a mistake by Fielding not the defence (by the way it was not a goal). It started at Palace the understanding. The defence is looking solid. So where is the doubt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WorksopRam Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Barker all day long. The amount of climbing on players he gets away with is ridiculous though, but I'm not complaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-JW- Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Barker has won me over big time. Its because he is fully fit he and playing alongside an eually good cb in Shackell. He is our messiah, and thats not just down to the fact that he looks like Jesus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
