Howson looks a natural at RB

I've always thought it whenever he's played there. He's far more effective playing in defence now. He reads the game so much better from a deeper area of the pitch. A number of times yesterday he made crucial interceptions and got us away on the attack. I know not everyone will agree but I'm still not 100% on Dijksteel. I find him very inconsistent. Even when Dijksteel is fit I would keep Howson in ahead of him.

I agree 100%
Howson was arguably one of the most important players in the team yesterday and against Barnsley
Breaking up attacks and then Bursting forward and being creative as well as comfortable in those areas of the pitch means he is very potent with his decision making which adds another dimension to our play
I don’t think Neil Warnock can leave him out given his contribution even if dikjsteel is fit again for me. Howsons experience is really utilised in this position as I don’t see him contribute enough recently in midfield and perhaps that’s his ‘legs’ hence at RB or RWB this much more suits him at this stage of his career

Totally agree mate.
 
I'd still have Dijksteel back in a heartbeat, but Howson has played really well at right back in the last two games.

Hopefully that continues next Saturday.
