No Widdell again

No Widdell again

Very strange.

We have Key who can cover LB,Casey who can cover RB and CB plus the option of Galbraith at RB.

I would be putting Widell on the bench ahead of Samuel Smith.

No Widdell again

First thing I noticed

When we need an attacking spark in the middle of the pitch he is the only one that looks like he can provide it
Malcouye is a lot of things but not an attacking creative midfielder
Fulton most definitely does not fit that description either

Benson needs to offer more than he did on Saturday, while he offered promise against Forest I thought he looked slow and I don't think he managed to beat his man a single time last weekend

I thought Ronald was sub par on Saturday so not surprised he loses out to Benson. Let's hope the latter can take his chance.
The absence of Widdell on the bench is puzzling, I'd have him ahead of Fulton all day long, but I have to say he's been a disappointment so far. I don't hold him in as high a regard as some on here, he reminds me of a misfiring engine. But there must be a player in there somewhere, Swedish international and all that, the question is, can Sheehan find him?

 

[cmajack]

No Widdell again

Full Swedish international and can't make our bench, would like to know the reason why .

 

[tardylum]

Unless we have injuries, it seems like we might not ever see if Widell is good or not. Has not pulled up any trees so far, but thought he would get more of a chance.

Hopefully Benson can create something from nothing tonight if we toil at all.

1-3, this is when we start the turnaround.

 

[Lisvanejack]

When he went to right back v Watford I think he looked phenomenal and still offered in the centre midfield position… it really gave us that overload.

Ah fair enough. I couldn’t be at that game so didn’t see it. I think I’m still traumatised from LW playing Key as an inverted full back so the idea of a CM at RB stresses me out

 

[ABSwan]

Not an established regular, he played 1 game, came on in the 86th minute of a friendly.

 

[monmouth]

Full Swedish international and can't make our bench, would like to know the reason why .

And why Full Tonne is still there.

 

[ABSwan]

Very strange.

We have Key who can cover LB,Casey who can cover RB and CB plus the option of Galbraith at RB.

I would be putting Widell on the bench ahead of Samuel Smith.

Not strange at all, unless you’re looking for conspiracies

Sheehan doesnt like him

 

[ABSwan]

And why Full Tonne is still there.

Because he’s a decent player that offers cover for specific roles, Widdels role can be covered by othered on the bench.

 

[ABSwan]

Sheehan doesnt like him

Utter bollox of course

 

[Vetchonian]

And why Full Tonne is still there.

becauss Sheehan likes him....he is a favourite.
I have always been a fan of Fultons but not sure he fets the nod ahead of Widdell
