Full Backs 14:32 - Aug 14 with 6224 viewsshandyjack

All the talk of our full backs being poor, i thouhg they both did very well yesterday. Kingsley's balls into the box were superb and Naughton seemed more switched on than normal

Yeah, they were both among our better players yesterday. I can see the argument for a new right back but don't see left back as an issue at all.

Amats defending yesterday belonged on the rugby pitch, on a yellow and looking for another one. Needs to be better than that.

Agree. Naughton was very good I thought . Long may it continue !

I honestly think that many players are growing and improving under FG , a few wins and confidence will help the defence no end .

Great to see them getting forward so often and getting so many balls in the box.

I've always liked Naughton, and I LOVE Kingsley.

Rangel and Taylor are reasonable enough depth for a team with our resources. Especially relative to our other needs.

Yup both did well. Let's hope it's the coaching not the opposition that made them look good.

Nobody said all our full backs are poor

Just Taylor is s**t and Rangel is past his best

Kingsley and Naughton should start every game going forward

Sell Taylor to TNS.

Leaving his agent aside his problem, in many's eyes, is that he is not Ben Davies. Different types of full back but compared to each other!

Can't pass the ball

Can't cross the ball

Can't stop opposition players going past him with the ball

Can't go past opposition players in front of him with the ball

Can't dispose opposition of possession

Can't keep possession

Can't score for his club

Can't stop people scoring against his club

All players have weaknesses of course, but none of them have them in such abundance as Neil Taylor.

It's not that any of them are particularly bad players it's just that they are some of the less talented players in the squad and fairly easy areas of improvement, and as we all know you have to improve every year in the prem just to stand still.

Some of Kingsley's crosses yesterday were on a different level to what we've had with Taylor. We should try and bring him on and start him every game from now on and if he doesn't make it then in January we should consider replacements. Still not sure about Naughton. Rangel has been brilliant for us but lacks the pace these days.

I hope to fk Moralee can get Taylor a move as well. Then we be done with that cnt as well as his overrated, overpaid clients.

And what is good Phaedrus, and what is not good. Need we ask anyone to tell us these things?

Wow.

Can't cross the ball and can't score I'll give you. Going past players isn't his job. The rest is complete bollocks. Criticise by all means but don't just make stuff up

Yup.

I'm not his biggest fan but that's unnecessarily harsh. He's been first choice for about two seasons too long but he's handy to have in the squad.

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Kingsley has taken over him in my eyes,but he's good competition for the position and won't let us down if needed

Wouldn't argue with that. I like both players, Taylor is better defensively, Kingsley is streets ahead as a wing back. Criticise constructively by all means, but don't just list what you think a fullback should do and say he can't do them

Of course it his job mun, he's a pro footballer, how can it not be an outfield players job to dribble with the ball? I'm not saying he needs to be re-enacting Maradona 1986 every week, but the ability to evade opposition players in possession is kind of an important thing to be able to do, especially at the top level

Its not bollocks or even made up, look at his stats for last season

A tackle won every 72 minutes of a game

A pass blocked every 117 minutes

A cross blocked every 73 minutes

A successful dribble every 245 minutes

5.7 inaccurate short passes a game

0.5 crosses a game

Fullbacks were helped by the tactics. They were allowed more freedom to get forward by Britts dropping inbetween Fede and Jordi to make a back three while in possession of the ball. Never bad players.

That's the problem with reading stats instead of watching games and understanding what's going on. I bet you think Routledge is the devil incarnate too.

I think these are slightly more telling...

In fairness when Curt said that everyone laughed.
