    I said based on yesterday, then for the first time I think Haidara is a better left back. I read the comments on here and thought maybe I had been harsh. So, I just watched the game again with a fresh pair of Dummy tinted specs.

    Conclusion: I stand by my original remarks. . Dummy was horse ****e. You clearly have a different view, so will have to agree to differ on this one. But maybe you need to put pre conceived views about Haidara yo one side and watch Dummy again like I did.

    And if the Captain says it then we know it must be right. Wash your eyes out Nev/Jak/Mitro.

    These Haidara guys, just plain wrong. It matters not we'll be getting a proper left back in January and the discussion will fade into insignificance.

    Yes hopefully, however provided haidara is still alive he's still better in all areas than dummet bar long passing.

    Dummett is no LB ..He might have a future as a 4th string CB .. (The role recently vacated by the footballing giant that was iron mike )
    Haidara while no LB ...is more LB-y than Dummett, but still no solution (again he should be 4th string squad player atm, if no radical improvement as LB or a defensive minnded LW cover(where I think he would be ok) then ship him out in the summer)

    Last proper LB we had was enrique ...the last ok LB/MF was Santon



    So,, basically, the question everyone is discussing .....is..... which is the best horse?. ....a cow or a sheep?

    Haidara is a better LB. He at least gives the opposition something to think about by getting fwd a bit. Dummet just doesn't seem to do anything much at LB apart from giving the other team a load of time to think about how they are going to pass it round him next. I think he could be a CB however.

    Dummet and Haidara are both not Premiership class left backs. This IMO must be the number one priority in January. We'll pick up the greatest number of extra points if we attend to this issue of essential team strengthening. Enrique would provide at least a short term fix for this.

    Defending is the first role though, and haidara is woeful at it

    I would argue that stopping the opposition attacking is the first role. Haidara at least contributes to keeping the team further up the pitch. He can work on improving defensively.

    We just need to sign a left back. In the meantime we are conceding less with Dummett and therefore more likely to get points
