| Leif, O’Shea, Walton on 20:02 - Nov 8 by Swansea_Blue | It’s what his role is. You should have worked that out by now. The issue is when he does go forward we need to still cover the space in behind him and we’re not consistently doing that. The more this goes on I wonder if those saying we need to go 3-5-2 have a point, but it blunts us offensively and that’s where we’ll salvage enough points to stay up. |
3 points in two games is better than two draws. Simple as that. Go into your shell in these league, and you are cooked. |  |

| Leif, O’Shea, Walton on 19:41 - Nov 8 by billlm | I clearly don't understand it but I played a lot of it, you read what I stated above and I stand by it, Forward no complaints, As a defender can't read a game |
I guess we shouldn't remind everyone that you wanted McKenna sacked. |  |

Tbf if Davis didnt have his defensive issues. Hed have been picked for England by now. |  |

It’s a trade off for bombing forward isn’t it. Very few attacking fullbacks are able to defend solidly - even Trent had his critics for that. Perhaps a FB bombing forward is a luxury a promoted team can ill afford. leif’s goal contributions are too few to make it worthwhile surely. |  | |  |

Defensive issues meaning he's not quite good enough for England, is one thing. I'm responding to someone who said, "When I played left back I could have done a better job with one foot tied behind me, Positioning play awful, Awareness awful,Tackling awful." |  |

Yeah thats a bit OTT I think with leif we are at a cross roads. I dont think he can get any better now and im not sure he is good enough as a fullback. If we play wingbacks i think he is ok but soon we need someone who could be both. |  |

| Leif, O’Shea, Walton on 15:26 - Nov 8 by quad | Why? I'm not disputing Leif's ability, but he was very reckless to get caught so far out of position. He's a defender first and foremost. And his defending recently has been poor. |
O'Shea had to come to the man so basic. |  | |  |

I think he's had a good season and just had a couple of slightly off it games. |  |

This isn't the thread but you are like one of those little ankle biting doggies, Till the next time, We're just discussing if he is a good DEFENDER or not, that's all |  | |  |

But you're claiming he's terrible at everything, and when you played left back you could have done a better job with one foot tied behind you. I was referring to your judgement. If you judged McKenna was a bad manager and needed replacing then that kind of tempers how good a judge you are of players too. I might be an ankle biting doggie but I think it's justified if you're claiming some sort of expertise in football matters. |  |

I don't claim to know anything more or less than you do, footballs about lovley opinions and debates, Time for you to go and bite someone else's ankles of which we've all seen you do, Or maybe a lovely poem on our glorious left backs attributes, Have a lovley day, |  | |  |

Oh btw he's not terrible at going forward that's his greatest attribute, I've never said that, |  | |  |

| Leif, O’Shea, Walton on 15:20 - Nov 8 by quad | He was on the half way line when Hull broke away and equalised last week. We were winning 1-0 and in control. Lack of discipline and professionalism. People can say what they want. But I haven't forgiven him for it. And Walton's mistake today was unforgivable too. In fact they're not mistakes, just ridiculous. |
Yeah, stupid Leif, what was he doing, marking their right winger (also, their best player and top goalscorer) when he should have just been giving him 20 yards of space so he could anticipate their defensive midfielder's run in behind not being tracked or contested. So useless! |  |

| Leif, O’Shea, Walton on 12:24 - Nov 9 | OldFart71 | GON is partly right regarding knee jerk reaction. The question that has to be asked is has it gone beyond knee jerk. I think it has. Players like Greaves replacing Davis. If you cannot use Davis as an attacking option then Greaves is a better defender. Either that or put Greaves alongside Diop, Move Quattara over and bring in Furlong. If Lukic isn't available why is Matusiwa not being given the chance and up top Flemming or Akpom needs to start. If something doesn't change soon we will be fighting it out with those in the bottom three and whilst Man Utd aren't exactly pulling up trees they can and will pick up points. |  | |  |
