Demitri_C Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 Looks too clumsy for me, I don’t want him to be signed in summer 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest av1 Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 Let's not forget that the kid has probably made half a dozen times in the last couple of months and this was his 2nd game at CB. From what I have seen there is far more to like than there is to be worried about. The kid has a big future, certainly one id be looking to make permanent.

sir_gary_cahill Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 I thought he played well, I think some of the comments in this thread are unfair. He’s definitely a centre back, not a left back, he’s strong in the air, dominant 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Dr_Pangloss Posted March 10, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted March 10, 2019 He played well. He was pretty much up against one of the best forwards in the league in Che Adams, a player who is wanted by a number of premier league clubs and for the most part, he got the better of him. Yes a couple of clumsy moments but IMO offset by an otherwise solid display. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 I feel alot safer with him at Left Back for now. Doesn't seem to handle intense pressure so well which is understandable given his limited playing time in recent years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 I think he struggled on the right side of centre back today, seemed clear he wasn't comfortable on that side and he barely used his right foot. I'm glad Smith didn't put Jedinak in but you can understand why he was thinking it as it would've been more balanced. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 He has been excellent for us the past month excellent. Awful circumstances today, new position, clean sheet. End of. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvfcRigo82 Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 He does not fill me with confience yet. I hooe we don't make this a perminant deal. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a bit of a debate about whether it made a difference and we certainly saw where it could be a downfall today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need more games to see him how good he in centre half.... for me i don't think we should get him.. we better off to get Barbet for free over him and money to buy Mings in summer.. not sure if we need him left back i think better to buy 2 new left back... or 1 left back to buy and use Taylor back up until our youth left back come throught .. maybe Mitch ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DCJonah Posted March 10, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted March 10, 2019 Wow some harsh comments. First game at cb. Playing right side. Brand new cb partnership. In a derby game. He did well overall and will be a good signing 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terrytini Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 I like him. Has done well at LB after a poor start,Nice to see him and Mings giving us a bit of height and muscle at the back, and in a difficult role today I thought he did fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 Back to back clean sheets. I can't believe my eyes. Couple of hairy moments when he trod on the ball and had to pull Adams back, and when he was a bit clumsy in the box, but did well on the whole in difficult conditions.

Popular Post daggy_333 Posted March 10, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted March 10, 2019 Comments on here are really harsh. The lad is 23, he's played a handful of games in the last 9 months and played as a right sided CB when he's left footed. Give him a break for God sake. Made a couple of bad decisions but they didn't cost us. Chester has been making mistakes all season, guess we should get rid of him too. For £2/3 million i think we'd be extremely foolish to not buy him in the summer. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yes, it was a whisker from disaster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilko154 Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 Comments seem a bit unfair. I thought he was absolutely class today, sometimes appeared shaky on the ball but was absolutely dominant in the air. Needs a bit of time to get into the centre back position as he did at left back.

ROTTERDAM1982 Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 I don't know what game I was watching then, but I thought Him and Mings coped incredibly well, couldn't see them scoring tbh.Considering he is left footed, abd played on the right I thought he played really well. Whats his price?...…….£2m ?...…..bargain. The only time they come into it was when Jack went off, and we kept giving the ball away cheaply, partic Andre Green, but we coped easily with their strike force today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillanousOne Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 Looks decent at left back, struggled a bit today at times but I think we should sign him, he is young and will get better with games. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
