Popular Post Made In Aston Posted August 11, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 11, 2018 2 hours ago, screwdriver said: CB is a tough position for a kid to learn. any mistake will probably cost a goal. and will cost the team precious points. I don't blame bruce for not trusting him. I'd much rather have experience at the back. It's a good idea to throw him in at CB against Yeovil tho. Why bother signing him in the first place then?! We have plenty of options at RB without adding another one to the long list! Bruce should have signed someone he does have confidence in rather than sign a CB to play as a right back because he is scared that the kid will make a mistake. Jedinak made a howler today and he is experienced. Makes no sense! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daweii Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 I think we'll see Tuanzebe play CB now that De Laet is back. De Laet will come in at RB and Hutton will shift to LB. I'll be surprised if we don't see Tuanzebe as a CB in our next league game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villaglint Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 As bad as Jedi was I was surprised how nervous Tuanzebe was especially when’s hes already made his debut for us. I’d assume he’d come back to start at CB for us. That performance worries me plenty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alreadyexists Posted August 12, 2018 Author VT Supporter Share Posted August 12, 2018 I think we’ll start to see this now: Elmo Tuanzebe Chester Hutton Thor RDL McGinn Grealish Green Kodjia I would love another CB and another ST on loan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s played there for Man Utd in big Premier League matches, it’s his most favoured position, I think he might be the answer to our centre back problems 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not. We should get someone established, not try out youngsters, however many friendlies they've played for ManU. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you? Genuine question. I haven’t, so I’m interested to hear from people who have. He’s looked appalling at fullback for us so hoping he’s better at CB.

rodders0223 Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 The worrying thing is that you expect a CB playing at FB to at least win his headers. I don't remember him winning one, and he was clearly being targeted with their long balls prior to being subbed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GENTLEMAN Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 CB today; time to prove to Bruce he can be trusted. Great opportunity to dislodge Jedinak 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Condimentalist Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 A few sketchy moments and seems especially prone to getting caught the wrong side of his man. Even still, looks far superior to Elphick and Jedinak, not least because he can run and pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
