toontownman Posted August 17, 2024 Share Posted August 17, 2024 Didn't want to jinx it in the match thread but we looked far more assured when he came on. He shut down the attacks down out left. Almost everything funneled through the right after. Just the sub needed. Expect he starts with Burn next game in the middle though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotus Posted August 17, 2024 Share Posted August 17, 2024 Agree. He looks a very good signing. Can see him playing LB in the old Dan Burn-really-a-CB role until Schar is back or an adequate CB signed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I’d like him to start. But think he’ll go with Krafth at RCB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Checko Posted August 17, 2024 Share Posted August 17, 2024 Knew he's a good athlete and comfortable on the ball but thought his 1v1 defending looked excellent. Winger kept doing step overs & feints & he wasn't fooled by any of it. Just waited it out until the winger gave up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always stood out at Bournemouth to me because of it, as I really appreciate that in a defender. Think people will really come to appreciate that he's more than they expected.

Not fun to go up against. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted August 17, 2024 Share Posted August 17, 2024 Id consider Trippier, Krafth, Burn and Kelly as the back 4 for next game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted August 17, 2024 Share Posted August 17, 2024 His vocalness was a big surprise when he came on as the reports were that he's an excellent footballer and defender but more of a relaxed/introverted character. Really liked his cameo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsunami Posted August 17, 2024 Share Posted August 17, 2024 If he can stay fit, he looks the business. No idea if LB or CB but he looks a starter to me. If we get Guéhi and Botman back as good as he was then we’ve got some choice. As it stands, Krafth and Burn isn’t inspiring. I’d start Kelly next game, he’s a different level to those .

Expand I didn't think Hall was terrible. Couple big mistakes and he did get beat by the attackers a few times. He got us 2 points today with that fantastic clearance off the line though. I do like Kelly alot at LB from the very little I've seen. Hall for Longstaff in middle maybe? I'd like him playing to continue to grow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Wor Tino was alright IMO. Shut down Edozie quite effectively, conceding only a few corners. Edozie was decent too, but had to switch over to the other side by the end.
