Comment | The Season's Verdict - Central Defence

We've had a long running joke that Fonte makes one mistake every game. If you can get away with it early for the expense of perhaps only a throw in, or go 3-0 before it comes along, all the better. Next season mistakes will be punished.
I'd quite like to see him given a go at defensive midfield. As you say he's solid 99% of the time and plays the ball out from the back superbly. We do lack someone in that position too. Might be worth a crack!

I'm really torn on Fox. His dead balls are exceptional, I'd be interested to see how many of his assists are from set pieces. I can only remember Conventry away and Derby at home where he has set one up from open play, although I'm sure there are 1 or 2 more. I also think that against better defences next season, goals from corners are going to be vital, so Fox could be a key asset.
However, defensively he is all over the place. He needs to work on his positioning, and strangely for someone so good at crossing, his passing and distribution generally is poor. I've lots count of the number of times he has tried to spray the ball towards the opposite flank and it's gone wrong, epotimised at home against Reading. While his set pieces will be of extra importance in the big league, his defensive frailties will be exposed more as well.
Aside from Lambert, Richardson is my player of the season, all those assists from open play, and often at crucial times in the game. |
