You can see that from 40 minutes of football? What is a luxury football player. I hear this term a lot but not sure what one is? Is Foden luxery? Messi?Not the sort of player you want on the pitch when a scrap is going on.
I can see why wilder doesn’t fancy him, too much of a luxury player
not for me, he's CDM, stood off their midfielders too much when we were out of possession.main issue with him coming on was Howson going off, Howson had been having a great game, not sure if was injured
It was a strange one, although obviously don't want to criticise because we won the game.main issue with him coming on was Howson going off, Howson had been having a great game, not sure if was injured
Yes we definitely need another DM. Swapping the back 3 around to put McNair in the middle definitely wouldn't be the best option.It was a strange one, although obviously don't want to criticise because we won the game.
Thought Howson was having an excellent game so can only assume he'd gone off with a knock.
It's another example of why I'd like to see a DM come in to be honest, although there's the option of bringing Bamba on and playing McNair that at a push.
Really don't like the idea of Crooks as DM. Midfielders who chip in with goals are worth their weight in gold. We need to keep Crooks in an advanced role. I'm hoping he'll finish the season with double figures in goals scored.Howson was doing his job defensively but I didn't think he was getting on the ball enough and he wasn't playing us through the midfield. Payero solved that problem briefly but he was too much of a liability defensively to keep him there so he got swapped for Crooks.
DM has been our problem position all season and I think it's rearing it's head again. You put Crooks there and you lose him going forward and his connection with Jones, you put Payero there we look dodgy defensively, you put McNair there and we lose our best centre back. It needs solving.
I have no idea what McGree is like but if he can do what Crooks did on the right side then we should be able to put Crooks at DM without losing too much going forward but with him being left footed I assumed he was going to compete with Tav.
