Fullback cover?

Wed Aug 22, 2012 8:57 pm

With Darcy on his way do you think we have adequate cover at fullback? I know Connolly can play across the back 4 but he has stated he prefers centre half. Is this enough?

No need atleast another 1 or 2 :ayatollah:

I like Ben Nugent, but I think it's too early for him atm and his time will come, so if Darcy is definitely off, we need to get another full back in!

IMO though, we should be looking to bring in one who will oust Kev or Taylor and not one to fill in if they get injured or suspended!

Dont need cover we need replacement for Kev.

Huddersfield's Jack Hunt looked more than useful - surely we have some cash left for outlay & salary !!?

Thinking the same thing more and more. I reckon Kev can come on to protect a lead if required but he just doesn't deliver as part of an attacking role.

Connolly could play at right back and mcnaughton could cover all positions along back four. However, only having 5 defenders in the squad is a worry. Would definitely like an extra left back. I'm not counting darcy or Keinan. Is Keinan even still with us?

Sure Huddersfield would be asking for £2-3 million.

I would be willing to pay £2m with a potential to reach £3.5m :ayatollah:

Can't see that, especially kiss, he has everything that would fail as a fullback :lol:

I think we will see a few more signings this month

Nugent had a quality game for the development team last night.....and Declan John looks like hes got a bright future ahead of him as well. But for me Nugent has the right qualities to be pushing into the first team in the coming years.

You can't sign someone on the basis of one game

I know he plays on the right as opposed to Warnock on the left, but I'd prefer Alan Hutton to Warnock, if Hutton is available that is! :ayatollah:
