Imagine if we faced lille with Chambers at CB or RB we could be torn to pieces. I'm not sure why Chambers gets a bad rap. 90 percent of the time we've needed him, he's been fine. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dukes Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 (edited) He's good going forward, but he was also lazy in the second half and didn't provide sufficient defensive cover in my opinion. I really think he needs competition as currently he's a shoe in on the right hand side of defence or as a wing back, and there's nobody else (except Martinez) as comfortable in their place.

Demitri_C Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 (edited) Cash wasnt played as a rb today so the point still remains we need a rb to compete with cash Edited August 27, 2023 by Demitri_C 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I quite like him. I'm just concerned with him having to play in the event of an injury crisis. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naturally but he is 5th choice centre back, any team that goes that far down to the bones will be worried playing that player. He is fine for his squad position 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osmark86 Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Last season Cash was at times our best player. Just a reminder. I am glad he did so well today because the slagging him off was getting a little ridiculous imo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is fine for his squad position I think he is fine for the squad position if mings was fit. But 2 injuries and he's up. We could end up needing to start him for like a full month if we get unfortunate with some middle term injuries and not just knocks. I think we could do with 1 more player in that position to provide competition for cash and cover for Konsa and Carlos at rcb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anything11 Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 found another wrinkle in the squad with cash playing rm he looked great in that position - his natural attributes suit him playing there and it adds a bit of extra defensive cover along that side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's an RM winger at Forest converted to RB. He played RM and scored against us in the 5-5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, I don't think he was our best player in more than 1 or 2 matches last year. I think the WC and the injuries really affected him. It was the year before that where he was often our best player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are both more CBs than Chambers. We have cover worst case, people just want to make out we don't to sign another player that they don't even want in starting line up Edited August 28, 2023 by Kiwivillan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the year before that where he was often our best player. Yeah he was excellent two seasons ago, but also last season imo. Which is why I think the sudden criticisms of him have been a bit odd. He's made a few defensive mistakes sure, but all in all nothing to say that he all of a sudden is not fit for fight in our team. Even last time he was heavily criticised when we lost to Newcastle he was basically fouled out of the offside trap so didn't even think that was really his fault. Anyways, he's a good player and shouldn't be a scapegoat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Steve Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 His defensive work hasn’t been great in recent weeks. It’s not scapegoating to say that. Matty still sorely needs competition around him. I’m really happy for him as he’s always been a great attacking threat when he’s been able to get forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MakemineVanilla Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Cash is obviously not satisfied with just being picked for the Poland nation team, he now wants to displace Robert Lewandowski. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zhan_Zhuang Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 I also really like him, partly because my Son absolutely loves him. But he also seems like a great guy, very humble interview there. Wonderful for him to have had a good game. Brilliant when he says: "I'd play anywhere for this club..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
