Joel should have hacked that into the stands, not try to clear it up the middle of the pitch obvs.
But yes, he's been brilliant on the whole.
It would be very interesting to see the pecking orders if everyone were fit, but I would guess Joel is ahead of White, Burn and Webster for a centre...
I think he's been brought in with the idea that playing with a back three will be the formation we use most commonly.
Anyway, great to see this board back to talking about what we have got, not what we might get or might lose.
Yes mate. Not so long ago we were begging for cast offs from Swindon, Port Vale and Wycombe. I tried to explain this to my 8 year old recently and he just looked at me like I was on a wind up
The other point here is that Lamptey is a player of incredible promise, but he's 19. It's unrealistic that he won't suffer dips in form. We need someone to be able to come in and cover the position. This season we've had to put Alzate there as an emergency measure.
I can see some young centre backs being sold on though. Though not White. I can see players like Baluta, Ostigard thinking they don't need to spend the next few years being loaned out to get game time and would prefer to find a permanent club. I reckon Clarke too.
