Strange though as he was played on the the right side before and did well.
He'd get rinsed in this league if he's left one on one if gooch has bombed on. O9 has more of an engine to cover
He’s been poor so far. Was eager to see how well he’d do at Forest as when I was a keen FM player I used to always scout the Ligue 1 reserve/u19 squads for future stars, mostly Monaco and PSG.
He was a player I brought in who had massive potential on there but has flopped a bit, he’s barely played any football.
Good post mate...
As a retired coach, I wonder if some modern day coaches still use the tried and well tested theory within the mindset of getting the best out of a player, which was simply to ask the player outright what position do you enjoy playing in most, as well as utilising already recognised strengths to play in needed formations etc.
I have a lot of time for Gooch because he plays everywhere he's asked to, and he gives 100%....However, I wonder what postion he would prefer to play?
Supger KP played as a fullback in his earlier days, but loved to play up top in training....and the rest is sweet history.
Yes players are required to to adapt to other roles and are successful to anextent, but it's clear that sometimes we are putting square pegs in round holes at the start of matches, and we are falling short many times right now.
CM moved to a WB shouldn't be too much of a role change if a player is coached for weeks in that position, however, I just think that if you talk to your squad and ask them where they would prefer to play, and them try them in reserve matches.
I suppose the reason why I'm saying this, is because you can quickly see the body language of a player (with talent) struggling and before the end of the match, who is then replaced by the correct square peg.
I always say this - I rember a past coach telling me that nobody could take the ball of Cattermole in five-a-side....nobody!
His close control was outstanding. Yet he was never utilised in an attacking role....as a no 10 or even a winger, even in the reserves.
Just a thought mind...
Even Quinny played in goal......Mart Poom could play at CB and CF as a kid.
Must have missed this. Michael Walker from the athletic has sneaked into this tweet that Bennette's club have said he is joining Sunderland

Some bloke on twitter claiming Danny Drinkwater is in the north east today. A very troubled character which is well documented. Played the back end of the season at Reading and was supposedly very good once he got fit. Couldn't agree on wages allegedly to go back there.
It would be a signing definitely in the Evans/Pritchard mould which comes with risk but also an opportunity for a player to come to a club and play at a decent level and find his feet again.
The bloke could also be talking absolute ****e and I'll have wasted my time typing this

They have:
Herediano's coach, Hernán Medford, attended Columbia. This medium consulted him about the signing of Bennette with Sunderland.
"The boy deserves it, he has done things well," the Florentine team's technical director told Radio Columbia 98.7 FM.
"It's a very important step for him," Medford acknowledged.
“He has been talked about a lot; he has been given advice”, highlighted the technical manager of Herediano to Columbia.
"It's a very competitive league, but Jewison has the ability," Medford defended.

my initial reaction was "yuck" but as you say, many wrote off Pritchard and Evans as well.
Could end up being either a master stroke or a disaster.
or not true at all as you say.
I can only imagine we / he are planning for him to be a first team squad member. otherwise he's risking his World Cup place. which might not be a priority for him, but you'd think he'd be wanting to at least be loaned back to his club until January for the sake of a few extra months.
Must be - I got told yesterday no loan back, after initially being told he might go back on loan. Imagine it all depends on the WP

Love a good player spotted rumour
The garage opposite the Ramside
. Absolute belter that. It used to be the actual Ramside where they were allegedly spotted, now it's the petrol garage over the road.
If fit, would be our best midfielderSome bloke on twitter claiming Danny Drinkwater is in the north east today. A very troubled character which is well documented.
