nufc4eva Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Dummet has to go into the middle, Willo is such a liability and when he plays the nerves spread like wildfire throughout the defense.... Dummet middle, haidara or davide LB, don't care which of them tbh This but with Santon rather than Haidara who I think lacks discipline in getting back and doesn't yet know when it's best to stay back or get forward. It'll come mind. I can still remember a lot of us moaning about Davide "sauntering" back to his position not so long ago... The two of them are pretty close tbh Now you come to mention it aye!!! Players do narf improve when they're missing for a while!!! Remember that Obertan kid, fucking lightning he was, all sorts of tricks and flicks, skinning people at will, awesome movement, ball control and crossing. Miss him like fuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smal Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 This guy's been missing so long it's genuinely got to the point where I'm unused to seeing his name without a capital T and a double o in it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemtizz Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Aye he's missing for 2-3 seasons tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Could see this one happening. The way the club will look at it, they've got Haidara, Dummett, Colback and even Anita who can fill in there. They could cash in without having to replace him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
U2 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Would free up a squad registration place that we wont bother to fill. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaus Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 I really hope that the club don't see colback as adequate left back cover Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Because they are working on it don't mean it will happen. I wouldn't be surprised to see it happen in the summer but don't think it will happen this window. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Prefer Haidara. Provides better balance to the team and actually runs back into position after attacking. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Dummett has some attributes to be a CB, he's athletic and fairly quick and he's tough enough in the tackle. Santon is our best LB by miles. Really? I prefer Haidara. Haidara is better going forward than Dummett and Santon but isn't a better defender and a Left backs primary role is to defend. Haidara gets forward and leaves acres of space in behind him which when he's played other teams have exploited. Funny, that's how I see Santon. For me Haidara is far more aware and responsive to his defensive duties than Santon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ste Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Still rate him. Think he can be coached to go on the outside quite easily. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sempuki Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Only made £9m or so this transfer window so might need to sell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me Haidara is far more aware and responsive to his defensive duties than Santon. neither Santon or Haidara are up to much defensively lets be honest. Anyway we have few enough defenders as it is (including santon we have 6 senior defenders for the rest of the season) getting rid of one would be just the kind of stupidity ashley would go through with but would be utter madness to only have 5 senior defenders for 4 positions.

ilikenewcastle Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 I agree it would be silly to get rid now. In the summer though, I think him going would be best for everyone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 So we'll have 5 defenders until the summer? Possibly Raylor too. That's absolutely shocking. I like Santon but open to selling him. But for such a small fee, when our squad is tiny, is incredibly dumb. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Tbh a bit meh about selling him, would be nice if he stayed fit and improved but he was hardly brilliant before the injury, and the time out is likely to have disrupted his progress, he was always a prospect and not the finished article.

Minhosa Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Always liked the fella. Think he's still got potential to be first rate full back, he's just in need of some specialist coaching i.e: not from an average ex Notts Forest winger, a charver who played Fullback from Whitley Bay or a wonky nosed ex Everton CB.

Guest Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 If him going out on loan meant a centre-back coming in even if it's just on loan also, I think that puts us in a stronger position than a month ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
