Most likely cheaters and Chester’s poor form both linked to marriages one way or another! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaVilla Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Honestly, i just think a 5 ft 11 CB doesnt cut it at the higher levels, might also be part of our weakness at set plays, if we had a couple of 6ft 1 / 6ft 2 or above CBs it would prob help us a lot (obviously Tuanzebe is on loan so i mean for purchases in Jan) I wonder if Terry's instruction and guidance last season, as well as Terry being v good in the air and reading the game, made Chester look better than he was and covered up for his weaknesses? Also the system probably helped him, the Bruce defensive system covered up some of his issues, lack of height/strength, lack of pace etc. Dont get me wrong, im not a hater, i think chester is ~ok~, i just dont think he suits the DS system, in every game since DS joined he treats the ball like its going to explode, he just looks scared even before the game starts.

Dr_Pangloss Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 (edited) He needs to be replaced (in Jan) and dropped down to the bench, atrocious all season and clearly cannot play with the ball, which is a prerequisite under Smith, he doesn't have much of a future here.

MaVilla Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 (edited) Also, thinking about it, last season we were more defensive, we had Terry and Jedinack, who likely covered for his deficiencies in the air, and strength wise. With the strikers these days, a lot are big units. Edited October 27, 2018 by MaVilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumstopdogs Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Just now, MaVilla said: not sure if that is agreeing or disagreeing with me?? Was just joking as I don't think that you necessarily have to be a giant at CB to cut it at the top level. However I must admit I prefer it when we have taller centre backs as they appear more commanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 (edited) Good player, massively out of form. Been poor all season. Same as Grealish. If you look back to his first season it never clicked with Elphick but he looked better alongside Baker. Suggests he can't be the dominant CB of the two and needs one alongside him who's good in the air while he can drop off and read the play. Can't be the lead CB alongside Axel who's done well in recent weeks. Edited October 27, 2018 by VillaChris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not saying he wasn’t at fault for the goal though. He made a shocking error, but he can not play on our left side of defence. He completely changes and cannot use his left foot to defend, so tends to shape his body incorrectly all the time to try to use his right foot. He is not good on the left side, but no question about it he’s the best defender at the club when he’s played on the right side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Been veey poor this year. I think the lack of protection in front if the back four and the diabolical goal keeper is having a impact on him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our centre halves are under pressure all game without any respite by a keeper coming and claiming the ball now and then. They are literally having to head the ball away a yard in front of him at times. Whilst inexusable, the mistakes are inevitable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We won't go up with him in goal. Needs to be sold in janaury and a solid replacement purchased Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a real big issue for me. If you are relatively small, in this position, you have to be world Class. Most of this divisions teams, that are doing anything of note, their centre backs are huge.....until we join this group on this issue, I can't see the necessary progress to gain promotion. Middlesbrough are not that good, but Ayala and Flint emulate another Cardiff.....Tim Klose, Pontus Janssen and Toni Leistner other examples......these are the sorts we should be signing.

StefanAVFC Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 He just isn't a bad player. I don't get the eagerness to absolutely hammer him because he's out of form. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
