Besides the assist at QPR, i just can't think of really anything at all positive that he offers this team |  | | |  |

For £3m he’s been good value for money and really not the issue.
There’s been a fair few million spaffed elsewhere that could be questioned, though.. |  |

Furlong is a solid RB defender but offering little in transition. Good value in todays market at £3m.
If we had a RW player consistently impacting the game we’d be pleased with the defensive support, our problem down that side is Walle is raw and building momentum, but McAteer hasnt contributed much at all as the senior player. Having such hit and miss attacking and overload threat from that side has been an issue in some game not all. | |

Have you actually seen him play? I have, albeit not today - yet.
I watched him quite close up on Weds and he was excellent. Up against a Stoke team that was more than decent, he dealt with his opponents just as well as Tuanzebe could with the added addition of playing week in week out.
One thing he is not great on is his final ball. But then neithers was Tuanzebe. H Clarke was ok at that but got pulled all over the place.
He’s a good player. £3m for a player? Is that expensive in these days of inflated transfer fees? Who would you have brought in that’s better?
If you want to nominate this week’s scapegoat I think you need to look elsewhere. [Post edited 14 Dec 20:39]

Agree with all of that.
One other thing I noticed in his debut vs T' Blades and regularly since.
He is vocal and organised when we are defending set pieces. That has really helped us so far this season imo. | | | |

Of our problems you could start a thread on, this ain't one of them. |  | | |

Well this is quite the hot take. Furlong has been great value at 3m and one of our better signings. He rarely gets caught out defensively and is a reliable 7/10 most weeks.
A defender's primary concern is defending ( strangely enough ) and he is pretty good at it, so he does impact the game. With Leif playing advanced on the left we need a mainly defensive full back on the other side.
Honestly not sure what you were expecting from him? |  | | |
