We obviously have both Suttner & Bong regularly playing in the starting line up but hardly ever on the bench.

What would be the solution if we lost a left back during the match to injury or a sending off.

We obviously need substitutes on the bench to change the game and a plan B but left back seems to be overlooked. Can anyone cover there if required

If we are really down to bare bones for left back, perhaps Solly March in the role, similar to Ashley Young?

You can't necessarily cover for every position with substitutes. Until Kayal returned to fitness, we'd have struggled to replace Stephens or Propper in CM if either of them had been injured. Bruno, Schelotto, Goldson or Hunnemeier would fill in at left back, I guess.

If Hunemier is on the bnch I think he would come on as left bacjk but if Goldson he would probably slip in to right back with Bruno moving across. The problem comes if 1 is out ionjured and the other gets injured or sent off in a game.

The problem is there doesn't appear to be a plan B.
