dosser1886 Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 Had a steady enough game, brought in some good experience and tried to organise the defence but did sell himself a few time with some rusty defending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Pacino Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 Looks to be a good addition. Aquitted himself well today and I imagine he'll get better as his fitness improves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Yes, he a had a sound, if not spectacular, debut and I was impressed.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobey_Dosser Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 First natural right back in many years. If he can get his fitness up to scratch, his distribution and positional sense could be a major boost to the development of Chris Humphrey.

Guest Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 First natural right back in many years. If he can get his fitness up to scratch, his distribution and positional sense could be a major boost to the development of Chris Humphrey. Really, really good point that. As much as I rate Saunders, he's not a natural there, Ross getting up and down the wing behind Humphrey should help him big time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augh! Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Yes, he a had a sound, if not spectacular, debut and I was impressed.. Yes I thought he played pretty well. Good to see he was capable of lasting the full 90 minutes, although you'd think the original plan would be to bring him off before the end but Gunning's injury forced him to play on. There was a couple of occasions where Humphrey would have the ball and looked as though he was waiting for the overlap and it just didn't come, but the longer they play together the less that kind of thing will happen.

weesacs Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 thought he had a very good game very impressed with his distribution - always looked for a pass rather than "launch" it up the line and ((5 his pass rate was successful as mentioned earlier - looks more natural there and expect him to certainly make that slot his own from now until the end of the season experienced player and certainly a good and valuable addition to the team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnstone Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 Yeah Saunders is a fantastic prospect but is not a natural right back. My ideal future line up in defence would be: Ross - Hutchinson - Saunders - Hammell. Gunning will be gone next season, unless we can extend his loan deal and I think this may be Craigans final season and we will see him maybe move to a coaching role or into the media circut. The question is where does this leave Hateley? Has had a few shots in the midfield, but just doesn't look comfortable. Good right back, but doubt he would like being backup to Ross, but then again maybe the competition for places will improve his game even more and he could become an even better right back than he already is. Good problems to have I suppose! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadywellToi Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 I think Maurice Ross staying past the summer will depend on who we get to replace Jennings and if their wage demands means someone else has to be let go. I think the club will persevere with Hateley as he still has 2 years to run and is young. It also surprises me that many forget he mainly won his young player of the year awarded last season for his performances sitting in front of the back four as a defensive midfielder. Craig's formation and tactics didn't suit his game as much as Gannon's so when he was drafted into right back he ultimately improved.

milo Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 I thought he played pretty well, a couple of sclaffled clearances aside. Could be a good addition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig's formation and tactics didn't suit his game as much as Gannon's so when he was drafted into right back he ultimately improved. i agree that when he played that anchor role - he looked good, but that was part of a midfield three and anytime we play two central midfielders, i dont think he looks as comfortable all will depend on who stays / goes in the summer and who he brings in. i think he himself, wants to play CM, however we, the fans, think he is better at RB!
