It would be interesting to list all of our loanees at The Amex to debate who was a success and who wasnt. I would think that not a success will win the debate, which is worrying for our recruitment team and the upcoming window..
I agree that he is probably best played in the centre but instead of whom? The obvious answer is that he is niot Premier quality and Chelsea know that hence he is loan to us, so send him home in January. He is young but we do not have the time to allow him to develop he has to do it quickly...
I disagree he needs a ball not at his feet but for him and the full bck to chase then he would turn the full back and either cut inside or get fouled while running at speed.
Two points:
You are not permitted to say the same as me about the two teams being scared of each other and cancelling each other out as neither was prepared to take a chance.
We do not have the players of comparable quality to rotate many of our squad. The only position is possibly out wide...
I am continually surprised that our midfield do not hit balls for Iziquierdo to the area between the right back and the corner flag to give him the opportunity to run the full back.
I thought that he was mediocre in the 1st half but improved in the 2nd, Ben and his dad thought and argued with me that he was by far our MOM but I went for Stephens. I thought the best player on the field until Liverpool scored their 3rd goal was Henderson, as everything went through him...
I thought he hda poor 1st half but much improved 2nd. I thought that Gross had his worst game for us and would consider Kayal for Propper at Huddesfield and Propper for Gross.
Just to throw a spanner in the works, On the train going home last night 2 chaps were talking and one told the othere that he had been speaking to KLL yesterday and he said that CH has told him that he is coming back in January to try again for the first team. I hope the chap was...
