I like Mings but central defence is one key area where there just isn’t any competition for places. Hause is decent as an injury/suspension cover but he’s never going to be pushing for a regular starting position ahead of Mings or Konsa. Engels didn’t play a single minute last season so is clearly not in our plans in any capacity at all.
I think we need 3 good centre backs who can compete with each other for game time, and then a reasonable 4th choice back up who can step up when required (I.e. Hause).
We definitely need improvements at CB, the only reason we've had a solidish defence this season is playing between the sticks.
Mings, even when he's having a great game, has a couple of blunders in him.
I don't think he has the mentality to be a CB, you know the put it in row Z type of thing that's needed some times. Hause on the other hand has that mentality. Speaking of Hause, it would be nice to work out how many times he's played when we haven't conceded.
Someone made the point that we've looked more solid with Konza at RB and Hause at CB.
