Can I just say I really like Ward... on 16:44 - Sep 26 with 1965 views | Herbivore | He's quality. A natural left back that can defend and get up and offer something on the overlap. Uses the ball well. What's not to like? | |

Can I just say I really like Ward... on 18:08 - Sep 26 with 1743 views | Eireannach_gorm | What a shock that a 50 capped Irish International is good at his job. It was a great bit of business getting him. | | | |
Can I just say I really like Ward... on 18:11 - Sep 26 with 1733 views | wkj | In the last 10 or so years, our left back situation has always been the area I have been most worried about. Whilst we've had decent wing backs in this time, it has felt like we lacked solidarity on both sides at the same time. We keep those wings tight this season and that will be the answer to our woes for this year. | |

Can I just say I really like Ward... on 18:12 - Sep 26 with 1728 views | SomethingBlue | Great signing. Intelligent, efficient, good game sense, picks his moments to assist the attack, does well in the duels. Need to be careful with him over a full season, I imagine, but hopefully we can nurse him through when needed. | |

Can I just say I really like Ward... on 18:17 - Sep 26 with 1686 views | clive_baker | Seems like we’re in very safe hands at left back. Nice touch, good on the ball, street wise and not afraid to get forward. Looks like that 7/10 consistent performer we’ve been missing in that area, and he brings that bit of additional experience & leadership too which takes some of the burden off Chambers. I would like to see Woolfenden back in, but Wilson & Nsiala have done well to be fair. Being flanked by Ward & Chambers certainly helps us retain shape and benefits the central 2 no end. Definitely a far cry from last season. MOTM today for me was Dozzell. Thought he used the space he was allowed and found himself very well and kept us playing. Only think I’m slightly critical of was the last 20 minutes or so where I think we took our foot off the gas and stopped doing the basics right, getting a bit sloppy. There was an ominous hint of arrogance that is far from justified. | |

Mings and Cresswell not good enough for you? Surely right back has been more of a concern in the past decade, the single good one we've had has only played 9 games. | |

Mings and Cresswell were fine players, but clearly were going to be moving on at some point because of how good they are/were, . although i butchered the post entirely as i meant to focus more on the fact we've not had the balance of competence/confidence on the wing back roles in the last 10 years or so. | |

about 20 minutes from the end I posted that we were in complete control and that Rochdale weren't offering any threat at all. I feel partially responsible.... | |

Defensively he's still pretty solid, better than Garbutt who I didn't actually think was that good defensively despite his obvious attack assets Kenlock isn't a bad player coming forward in my opinion and certainly would be alright playing out from the back Hopefully he can learn from Ward whilst here. He is competent enough backup? I suspect MM would have sorted his defensive game more effectively than Lambert. | |
