Left back this season was Bertrand, he has been replaced (when unavailable) by Targett! That makes McQueen THIRD chioce! Saints even used Pied as the fullback when Bertrand & Targett were both unavailable. But, at least McQueen gets a game in the U23 side regularly
Yet Saints let Targett go and refused to let McQueen go? McQueen was certainly preferred to Targett on a few occasions. Pied is irrelevant as he plays on the opposite side. The only time he played LB was when we had no LB on the bench.
Hasn't McQueen been injured? I remember worrying during the I international break with Bertrand injury that our next available LB was Vokins in the u18's .
Him with Pierre and our midfield is certainly more effective and Tadic plays better because they do the donkey work and he can be more creative.
