TRon Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 It's not a sexy name, but seems like the perfect alternative once we failed to get our first choice defenders in. I haven't seen him much myself, but from all accounts seems like a big solid defender, so as long as he's not chronically slow, should do the job in keeping us up.

Nine Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Seems solid enough to do a job until the summer when he will probably be dropped out of the first 11 for our upgrades Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixx Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Would he be better suited to partnering Lascelles or Schar? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
junkhead Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Isn't he primarily a left back (despite his height)? Has he even played in a back two? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we probably will. Can play 3-5-1-1, or 3-5-2 (when wilson is back) or 3-4-3. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nine Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Defo looks like we are trying to move to a back 3 then.. sadly this probably means we haven’t seen the back of Clark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Howe's played 3 at the back once here and gone to a 4 every time since. I don't get why people are constantly suggesting we're about to go to a 5/3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Spaceman Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 He's an improvement on what we've got but a downgrade on what we were expecting. In isolation it's a decent transfer, given the value and the current state of our options. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sould make us a lot more effective offensively. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearergol Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 So yeah, probably more left back than wing back, even though Lamptey probably ended up as a winger most of the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
