Why not Raylor at right back, Enrique at left back, although it has to be said that Simpsons performances recently have improved.

 

Anyway, suffice to say, it is meaningless as Jose has gone, never to be seen again in a B & W shirt although having Peeters at the club would give us options at the back.

He's been a revelation this season and is contributing massively going forwards and isn't looking out of his depth defensively so overall he's been pretty fucking good. Great goal and a nice story RE his bairn. He seems a good pro and a decent lad as well.

Yup

 

Very pleased for the lad.

Comparing to him to Delap is a total disservice. Delap is fucking atrocious player.

 

Aye. Delap is probably the only player who doesn't even need to warm up before coming on because the only reason he's coming on is taking throw ins. :lol:

Looks like he is growing in confidence every game. Seems willing to try a bit more every game. He looked awful in his supposed best position for us and at Right Back, put him at left back - motivate him and offer protection from Jonas and he suddenly looks competent. My worry is long term e have to take his training wheels off and whether he is capable of putting full pressure on an attacking player. I saw yesterday that he backed off from players when Jonas was not there, similar to Simpson. I have no idea why they back off all the way into our box as it just causes havoc, can't challenge at that point really, its something we need to cut out.

Fair to say we have 3 full backs at the club now (think Simpson has been pretty good the last couple of games and don't think he is that bad anyway).

 

Amazing turnaround really, was happy for him to be released in the summer.

Simpson has had more urgency about him in Stoke and Everton games actually pressing and tackling rather than letting them just run at him (Still thought his positioning was shocking at times yesterday)

 

Would like us to buy a full back in January still to improve the team with Santon coming in long term for him or raylor

Its amazing how Raylor has progressed. Many if not all slated him (Including myself) when at RB or RM and then at LB but he has shown that he DOES have quality.

 

He still does not have the positional sense of a natural LB but he works hard and offers quality with delivery and technical ability.

 

He has provided a good problem at fullback. Santon waiting in the wings and Simpson having to up his game to stay in the side.

 

I would still be tempted to play him at RB though and get Santon bedded in at LB, whether the next three games is the time to do it is the question though.
