Centre Backs 16:18 - Jul 17 with 1690 views | King_of_Portman_Rd | Looking at who we have, are we all happy with where we're at if we go into the season as we are, with Chambers, Webster, Smith, Knudsen, Spence, Iorfa and Kenlock Natural Central Defenders: Chambers / Webster / Smith Can play centrally: Knudsen, Spence, Iorfa Fullbacks: Spence, Kenlock, Iorfa, Knudsen You could argue we are short of natural central defenders, but ultimately we have the numbers and should be able to cope with the inevitable injury or suspension. Though it does perhaps highlight that Mick might not be looking at a back 3 system we used last season... | | | | |
Centre Backs on 16:39 - Jul 17 with 1625 views | rickw | Maybe not - Spence and Knudsen both played several games in a back 3 last season, so plenty of cover if he wanted to do that again | |

Centre Backs on 16:43 - Jul 17 with 1616 views | Luk38644 | I think CB cover is Chambo, Webster, Smith and Iorfa. I can't see Mick playing Spence or Knudsen in a back two. Spence/Iorfa are RB competition and Knudsen/Kenlock are LB competition. Pretty confident we'll be playing four-at-the-back for the start of the season at least. | | | |

He may have to play Knudesn if Smith gets injured and decides he needs the balance of another left footer against certain oppo. | |

In a three, Knudsen and Spence at left or right sided CB respectively is fine but there is no way Mick will play either of them at CB in a two. | | | |
