Galbraith much better for us at right back in my opinion. When he’s at right back he still plays in the middle, watch his movement.

Which is why we’ve conceded goals down our right side recently because he’s way out of position.

I don’t recall any goals conceded on the right with him being out of position?

Which ones?

Vital said we are trying to target a no8 yesterday

Where has this been said?
Would you have a link or screenshot please.

Birmingham and Blackburn last week come immediately to mind.

He wasn’t caught out of position for either. He was dispossessed in the RB spot against Blackburn after a double press.

Against Blackburn he was again in position, Ronald dropped back in the wingback slot and didn’t close his man quick enough, but Galbraith was where he should be.

Many thanks
I believe he might be suggesting a winger.

Edit-Although it's strange about the no 10 comment which would angle towards central midfield.

I'd rather target a Rb on loan and get galbraith back in the middle

100% agree with everyone saying Galbraith needs to move into midfield. The scary part of it is, Key once again looked terrible in defense mode yesterday and I would rather have Galbraith in that position than Key. Key looked far better on the attack and as many have said maybe he should be used more on that front. Ward I'm worried he won't go long due to legs. Something we have to address in the summer. And area we have been weak for a long time.

Under Key we was leaking goals on that side. Galbraith as you mentioned proberly once or twice. I mean he does come into midfield and leaves a massive gap. Like I said, we need him in midfield, but he is doing a far better job than Key so needs must. I would keep him there unless ward can do 60 minutes.
