ClarrieBlue Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 If we do not buy a LB during the window we have to persevere with one of Bennett,Lichaj and Stevens. I think Bennett has more potential and skill of the three and I would go with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Yesterday was one of the worst performances from a fullback that I've seen for a long time. I know we trying to forget but tuesday wasnt that long ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFCforever1991 Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 (edited) Put him on the left wing Edited January 13, 2013 by AVFCforever1991 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie09 Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Out of Bennett, Stevens and Lichaj, it's Lichaj for me every time. He at least has some clue about defending, and we are going to need to do a lot of that for the rest of the season. I'd agree, but unfortunately the left back position is being targetted by our oponents because we are so weak there. How many other PL teams are playing an average right back at left back?

RedBullDelfouneso Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Stevens performance on Saturday was the worst individual performance I've ever seen at VP. He made Puncheon look like Ronaldo. I've never seen a kid so out his depth...and that was against Southampton. He doesn't tackle at all, that's the problem. He stands off, stands off, stands off...then lacks the pace when the winger darts past him. He's not brave, not committed enough, can't run, can't tackle, can't head. Sorry state of affairs...

momo Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Overreactions. He played well enough. Had a nice shot. Went forward well in the second half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Folski Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Overreactions. He played well enough. Had a nice shot. Went forward well in the second half. The amount of times he dived in, when Lambert was teeing up a shot on his left, only to dummy it and pull it back onto his right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicon Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 He's improving, albeit more slowly than we could do with at this time. He's got potential - enough to be a squad player at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lexicon Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 You rate him then? I said what I thought of him above. I wouldn't go as far as saying that, but I don't think he's a lost cause yet. He's just a kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lexicon Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 (edited) He's 22 nearly 23, he's not a kid, stop making excuses for him Nearly 23? 7 months away... and even then he's years away from what should be his prime. Regardless, he's played 7 times for us and that amounts to his experience in England. Writing him off so quickly is stupid.

AvfcRigo82 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 (edited) I like this guy. He trys, he likes to get forward, he has a great cross on him and he can strike a ball too. This mans position is not LB, but left wing for me and would like to see him adapted to this position that will really show us what a promising player he is.

Ghost Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 So Bennett is better as a LW. And now Stevens is better as a LW. We have no natural LBs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have no natural LBs I thought Stephen Warnock was our saviour there? (and Lichaj can do a job there if need be) - We're sorted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevangrealish Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Nooo way. Stevens is no left winger. He has the stature of a left back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
