We were poor there and turner and kilgallon not for me there. O'shea MUST return to the middle. Put Bardsley over to the right and try kilgallon on the left. What's happened to Richardson or playing bridge there? Why do ALL managers fall into the trap of playing players out of position?
Kilgallon aint a left back? He would probably just do what O'Shea does at RB but on the left. Bridge should start at left back and Bardsley at RB with O'Shea partnering either Turner or Kilgallon
When fit, our best back 4 is Bardsley, O'Shea, Brown, a left back (therein lies our big problem) We have been desperate for a left back since Collins was sold 3 years ago and although there have been loans, make shifts and totally wrong decisions made over our left back position, it still remains a huge problem. Colback, Richardson and Bridge are not the answer so a new man is needed. It has to be a priority for Martin this summer.
Figueroa is free at the end of the year, decent experienced proper left back. Wouldnt be against that. Id also have Diame and Roddellga from Wigan, both free too. I've not quite understood this boner that people have developed for Killgallon, he was at fault for both their goals yesterday by not getting close enough to Davies. Oshea was terrible at right back, his ability on the ball is Sunday league standard. My back 4 would be currently if fit; Bardo....brown...bramble.....Richardson
Think JOS has been excellent at centre back this season, its his best position by a mile. Bit like when Nyron was switched to CB ( not that I am suggesting they are similar in quality in anyway), he was so much better there than full back because he did not have to play as much, just defend, JOS just does not have the distribution for full back.
