Left Back Debacle

Bloody hell

Does this mean Good, Bad or what drugs are you taking?

 

[Saint Domingo]

You can imagine Elstone and Walsh sat in his office. ‘Don’t get a left back Steve, imagine the fume on GOT, that will serve them right for mocking my best of the rest speeches.’

 

[MikeH72]

We’re not buying one, simple as that.

Whether it’s because Baines has so much pull that he’s untouchable or the manager is actually crazy I’m not sure, but we won’t sign one this January.

That's the spirit.

 

[The binman chronicles]

Gross negligence from the club as a whole. But mainly Steve Walsh as it's his only job.

Director of Left backs? Didn't know we got to that level of detail but then again least we will have some accountability at last.

 

[Khalekan]

Everton are going to spin this out. Because they hate us. Every single one of us.

And as far as I can tell, the feeling is fast becoming mutual.

 

[KaiserEFC]

That's the spirit.

Apologies, I should be far more positive what with all the left backs we’re linked with and our recent history of buying players in positions we actually need.

I would personally change formation to negate the need for full backs.

Question the club about signing a left back, suggest experience is needed.....then mention Besic for the job....

What in gods name have you been smoking??

I feel you had an answer in your head before reading my post fully

With closer inspection you will see the first paragraph i reccomend signing an experienced left back but acknowledge the difficulty within the time frame

So in the following paragraphs i mention i would simultaneously be trialing players we have on the fringes in that position as a make shift should the first paragraph not be attainable


Due to my lack of smoking any substance my plan is to mutli task as much as possible until a resolution is found

May i reccomnend you in fact do smoke something that will allow you to explore somebody’s opinion long enough to over ride your desire to be funny and have a dig

 

[dano195]

Our whole left side is a joke. Martina a RB at LB. Sigurdsson a CAM at LM.

Put 20m in for Shaw ffs.

 

[Rudolf Hucker]

Yes, I think Besic could do a job at Left Back.


At Sunderland maybe.

 

[The_La]

Question:

I personally would like to see Mo Besic given a run there i feel he fits the criteria very well

Thoughts?

You were doing so well....

 

[kenada_blue]

Sam knows we need one, he's said it openly.

We'll get one. Just depends how late in the window.

With all due respect mate, this is not Fifa or FM. The next best thing to a left back.....is a right back.

"He can definately defend, he reads play very well can man mark the hell out of a player, he has tenacity and pace is certainly not afraid of a good challenge, he is comfortable with the ball... he has ok distribution nothing to shout home about and im sure he would love a chance to bomb down that wing and prove himself"

Besic does NOT read the play well....thats why he has to dive in all the time, due to poor positional sense and being too slow.

He can not man mark either, based on my point above. "He marked Messi out of the game".....nope, Messi scored 1 set the other up and got man of the match in that game.....pure myth.

Tenacity = Fouls alot....thats a liability, with this defence.

Comfortable with the ball he is not, as he cant pass very well either.

He is a cool sounding foreign player, with tat's who goes around kicking people.

IF he was to play for us, it would have to be at centre back....with 7 centre mids to protect him.

Club have messed up, and NEED to buy a left back. Its that simple.
