Cotter 15:49 - Oct 6 with 2451 views | Metal_Hacker | Seeing he scored this afternoon made me ask myself the question(s) Is Cotter really that bad ? Considering PL's thoughts on Donacien Taking into account the worries ref Kenlock ,would it be totally suicidal to shift LC to the left side and Cotter at right back for a couple of weeks ? Totally undermines Kenlock I guess but.....other ideas welcome I'd have to see Woolfy back in the middle before doing so for a little more stability perhaps | |

Yeah I thought that myself but thinking of using what we've got and trying to make things "work" Kenlock just scares me massively | |

Cotter on 15:55 - Oct 6 with 2399 views | tractorboy1978 | The fact they don't even want to play him tonight amongst a team of kids tells you how far away he is and how poorly PL rates him. [Post edited 6 Oct 2020 15:55]

Cotter on 16:03 - Oct 6 with 2362 views | xrayspecs | I may have got this wrong, but I believe he would be counted as one of our over-21s this season (we are limited to 22) which may also be a factor in us not having plans for him this season. | | | |

I'm no Kenlock fan but I'd still prefer him there to Chambers. At some point he needs to step up and at least nail down his place as first reserve. Hopefully Ward won't be out for too long. | |

Kenlock has 65 town games under his belt. Only fleetingly has he shown any indication of kicking on and certainly not in the past two years. Time to admit he's not good enough, sadly. | |

Kenlock isn't developing, if anything he's regressing. He's played a decent number of games for us and each time he's played over the past couple of years he's been poor. It's a shame. We all would like to see our young players blossom and become regulars, but I just don't think Kenlock looks remotely good enough to do so. He's not a kid anymore, he's nearly 24 and if he was ever going to be good enough we'd have seen signs of it by now. | |

Did I imagine it or was he linked with Arsenal when he was younger? | |

Cotter on 16:45 - Oct 6 with 2215 views | Wickets | Some players need the big stage to bring the best out of them , i dont know much about Cotter other than the one game he was pretty good . OK Kenlock is a leftie but the same errors just keep coming . We were told just a short time ago that Drinan was no where near the first team . Simpson seems to have dropped the radar , he looked ok without setting the world on fire . If you dont try them you will never know . | | | |

Yup! Leyton Orient supporting work colleague said he was terrible in the run out(s) he had with them pre season. | |

Kenlock is shocking We've all watched enough football and played to "a standard" to acknowledge who's a "footballer" and who's not Kenlock just isn't Dreadful player | |

Cotter on 16:56 - Oct 6 with 2160 views | clive_baker | Not sure why we would compromise 2 positions, it simply serves to exacerbate the situation. Losing Ward is a blow, he's a very good footballer, street wise, good on the ball, can get forward, good ability, know what you're going to get type player. Beyond him we're fragile at left back, but I do have some sympathy for Kenlock coming off the bench and being expected to get straight into a game having not played competitive league football for months. He's not of the standard of Ward IMO, but we need to stick to a philosophy and put round pegs in round holes. It's a shame KVY isn't fit as he's well versed at left back, but for now we should stick Kenny in and be done with it. | |

Hahahahaha Such an expert! We know nothing, lets be honest. I have a UEFA B licence, but am under no illusions, PL knows a thousand more times what I know and if he thinks Kenlock is up to it, I am happy with that. Better than round pegs in square holes, or throwing kids in. | |

Lest we forget, Lambert is a highly qualified coach who had to be told by our clueless owner to stop endlessly rotating players, systems and formations. Right now, I don't place a lot of stck in his judgement. [Post edited 7 Oct 2020 9:40]

His great buddy from Germany, Roger Schmidt, told hime the same '"Lambert says. “He was right. I decided I wasn’t going to waver from that advice.” ' Then he did waver. | |

Emmanuel was in and out of the team as a 19 year old in 2016-17, then never got a chance after that season - only made 5 more appearances for the club over the next 2 seasons and then left. He deserved a proper chance at town the season that Hurst f*cked everything up - that year we paid money for Donacien, then loaned Donacien out and loaned in James Bree, Pennington and Chambers also had a go at right-back, and that's not to mention some distinguished 'performances' from Jordan Spence. And for most of that time Emmanuel was either overlooked or out on loan at Shrewsbury, having had a successful loan at Rotherham the year before. Not saying he was particularly brilliant then, but just that he can't have been worse than what we managed to muster together in the right-back position that season. On the other hand, Kenlock is in his fifth season of getting games and still trying, without success, to nail down a first team place. | | | |

No point in having a forum if fans dont give their opinions and you have no idea of the football experiences of those that post on here . Myself i love reading what others have to say even if i dont always agree with it . And to be honest i have never felt the need to boost my own ego by laughing at others . | | | |

There's definitely a case for the argument that Emmauel was hard done by, less so Kenlock. | |
