Stronger at the back without Hall 16:31 - Mar 21 with 14101 viewsWestbourneR

Got pelters on here a few weeks back for saying I felt Grant Hall had major weaknesses in his game - so here goes for 2nds.

For me he is just too weak and definitely far far too weak in the air. He gets dominated by strikers and when crosses and corners come in he doesn't command the box.

To prove my point you only have to look at the change since Hill & Angella have come in.

Westbourne, why didn't you say we're better with Hill ?
Because "better without Hall " attracts more attention. 'Nuff said.


That's an interesting point

Because my point is that we're better without Hall, be it Hill or Angella or Ned. Any pairing that doesn't include Hall. That's why

But we're not.... The stats back that up too. The fact he's also the youngest of the 4 main CB's we have, by some way, should give him additional credit and value.

Yep, it's Hill or Hall for me everytime. With neither, our defence falls apart.

Hall's the first defender in years with whom I don't have a twinge of panic when the ball goes towards him, whatever the fashion — in the air, along the ground, or in behind him. All the others, for years, at least one of those areas has caused me some panic.

Tbh I think we are strongest with Hall but heaven forbid a discussion!

Following the last performance the op appears to have some credit if you take it at face value. The problem is that why we look longer than week to week he becomes an integral part of our future development. Hill will be gone in a season or 2 at most and we need someone to develop in that time. Agreed he's made some f- ups and he'll learn from them now. I'd rather he made the mistakes this season. And improved ready for a serious long term challenge at going up. The other option is keep playing hill until we get up, then buy in some new star to replace him when we challenge.
How did that work for us last time.
I was happy with our performance except for the couple of fool ups from our defence. Let them keep progressing aNd hopefully Jimmy will have identified a few to compliment the likes of Hall and Smithies who clearly love and want to play for our club.
Just my opinion
