With Pocognoli's arrival and Adekugbe to add to Bong, Rosenior and Bruno, do we now have more left back options than strikers?

I'm sure BG is satisfied but I think he's got too far into Houghton's ear now ...

Bruno's not a left back. Rosenior is injured for three months and also once back can cover right back for which we only have Bruno.

'Does he play left back ?' has now become 'Does he play striker ?'.

The question now is, who plays right back when Bruno is injured/suspended?

As it now stands we have Bong, Pocognoli and Adekugbe as left back choice and when fit Rosenior and Bruno as right back with Hunrte looking good in the DS in the same role as Adekugbe So we are adequately covered in both full back positions.

Hmmm I'm not too sure about right back actually, Hunt hasn't caught my eye in the development squad in quite the same way as Adekugbe has, and as we all know, Rosenior is out for at least three months.. I think we need to cover Bruno in cotton wool until December.

Stop interfering with BGs work........He has sole responsibility for Left Backs

I might be wrong as it is early days but I think Adekugbe could play midfield on the left side, much the same as Resenior and Bruno have done in the past. He has pace, can cross a ball, and has proved he has a powerful shot on him. Have not seen him play there, but he would be able to give good cover to the full back, which Lua Lua and Skalak seem to lack.

He was certainly more convincing going forward than defending at Oxford the other week.
