Orinoco Posted 5 hours ago Report Share Posted 5 hours ago Wilson needs games to develop. He is the complete opposite of our other left back. ODonnell can play left back. So if Wilson goes and frees up a spot in the squad then fine. Better players in any position can never be scoffed at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spit_It_Out Posted 5 hours ago Report Share Posted 5 hours ago We need a central defender with a bit height to him and is comfy playing the way Jens wants to play out from the back. I am not confident that McGinn,Gordon shall be available for the whole season and i dont think Balmer is that fancied so a CB is a must. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs more than games I hate to say it, unfortunately don't think he's good enough! He's chunked up that much he can hardly run and because of that never takes on a man, always passes backwards and inside. Pity as I thought we had another find from the youth teams this time last season but he has totally regressed since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joewarkfanclub Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago I presume we must have signed another left back who is still to be announced. Otherwise we are pretty short there, with only SOD or Halliday ever having played there before? Neither have the legs to do what Longelo does.....

Having said that this move doesn't surprise me, as Ewan Wilson has failed to develop after a promising start and soesn't seem to fit our current system.

Boy needs games to see if he can develop past this current plateau that he is on. Not currently what we need at left back, but who knows, he could be in the future. We definitely do need cover for Longelo though. Dynamic fullbacks are integral to how we are playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id be surprised if JBA thinks that is sufficient cover..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
