Most clubs have two fullbacks who are epuipped to play. You think we've two left backs. Ive think we've one. And one kid. Most clubs in the prem dont have a kid with barely a dozen games as their automatic squad replacement.
Going round in...
I’d hazard a guess that Seamus has signed some form of transition contract between a player and coach. There is no way he would expect to play regularly. Similarly if/when we have a bigger squad, I doubt he’ll be banging on the door asking for a...
I wouldnt disagree with that. Unfortnately it doesnt change we've been playing a near 40yr old at right back. A centre half at right back. Or seamus who tends to last 20 minutes.
Yeah i want them all on the bench. Like noah's ark. Two by two.
Nah just decent squad options. Like most clubs. Like most clubs wouldnt have been playing a player who's never played left back in his career on the opening game.
We've got a reputation of digging in and being hard to beat. Ive no issue with that if thats what we forever want to be. Its also part of why we're one of the lowest scoring teams every season. Most good sides have decent attacking fullbacks...
Is there a shortage of fullbacks that fly down the wings and can do a bit of defending? Or are our scouts sleeping on the positions? Because it makes it easier to understand if there really aren't many around rather than we just don't seem to be...
Like lots of young inexperienced players have done for years. Bed them into league cup games and a few minutes off the bench in the premier league. Not thrown into the deep end because the club havent recruited fullbacks who are ready to play...
The Dibling article in the Echo today is hilarious. The Saints Sports correspondent said "its a great move for him and with Everton having purchased so many players, him being understudy to start with will relieve any pressure on him" 😆 🤣 😂...
I hear you but I can’t believe the Board didn’t know ahead of time that their window was going to be tough and the squad they were giving to Potter wasn’t very well suited to the way he plays.
As for Potter, the ‘project’ he picked next was...
Fullbacks i said. But i can talk left back. As far as im concerned we have one left back at the club ready to play. He happens to be injured. We've just bought someone nobody knows if ready to play or not. He's played 15 games in his career. So i...
Lol not this again. We've got one left back at the club. One kid just signed who has no experience. We've no right back unless we now count our centre half as right back. Other than our other right back who's been here for 46 years and cant last...
Four of five Arsenals goals against leeds have involved their fullbacks. Got in behind and pulled leeds defenders out of position.
We played a midfielder there on monday who never crossed the halfway line into leeds half.
Such an important...
All 4 of Arsenals goals have involved fullbacks. 2 goals 2 assists.
Everton had a midfielder as fullback who never crossed the halfway line versus leeds lol
