Big Geordie Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 This lad is a player - and could/should be our DR for the next 10 years or so, once Tripps calls it a day. Was terrific last night Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jinky Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 I hadn't even heard of this lad before we signed him. I was shocked at the fee. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Butcher Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Wouldn't mind him starting at LB. Think he'd handle that inverted role well. He'd also offer much more than Burn going forward. We've already seen that he's a good defender. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played the last 15 mins in midfield last night. Granted, that’s obviously not his best position, but it’s an option Howe clearly considers, as opposed to something like Schar in midfield.

WilliamPS Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Both are rotten but Schar in midfield has a another level of terrible take. I don’t agree with it, but Trippier at LB is a legit position he has played. Whereas Schar in midfield is nuts Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gjohnson Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Never got this weird obsession we seem to have about putting any defender who can remotely pass in to midfield? On the few occasions we've tried it it's been nothing short of a disaster. Has it ever worked out for anyone? Can't think of a single defender who moved to midfield and did well. Worked OK for Mascherano going the other way, but even that was a massive exception. Possibly Marquez about 15 years ago Needs to be killed...killed with fire.

SUPERTOON Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 Tripper should only be used as left back in an emergency. He plays there for England from time to time, but rarely against any quality opposition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. TC Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 One of Trippier's many important contributions for us is his attacking assist and crossing. Putting him on the left significantly nerfs that. I think Tino has played on the left before, and crossing is less important to his game. If anything, he should be starting there.

Tino’s game is very similar to that of Javier Zanetti’s (Talking about an iconic player here I know!) - never did his game any harm when he played on the left - only ever saw him use his left once - v Eng in 98 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoU Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 I don’t think it’s impossible that Howe plays Tino in another Position than RB, especially with all our injuries and games. But it is really hard for us to say whether it will happen or not, when we don’t see him every day in training. To me he does have a lot of qualities that could make him a decent backup midfielder/winger. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
