Ditto. Given that we won't be passing back and forth, between the defence, for the sake of it, he'll probably be ok.Sounds encouraging, 6 ft 3, 24 (25 next month) with some experience but plenty of room to grow.
Played regularly for Bradford over the last two seasons getting their player of the season award. Reading some comments, sounds like he has picked up the odd red card and also that the question marks were pace and distribution- the latter seems interesting based on the profile of defenders we have signed over the last few seasons. A solid head it and kick it centre half sounds good to me though.
Wasn't expecting a CB through the door with having 5 who can play there already. Hard to imagine him displacing them (injury records aside).
A quick scan around suggests his strength is in the air. Played 100 games over the last two seasons, which is obviously a plus given our appearance rates over the last season or two!
Comes across as a signing you can rely on to be fit and do a job if needed.
Looking at Bradford’s lineup, would appear to be left sided defenderCould it be Poole back to right back for this season, more solid side in general? Or not even here?
Or even three centre halves...
If as suggested he's left sided, I wonder what that suggests for Walsh and Roughan in terms of pathway for the coming season.
40 games a season - clearly been signed as back up to walsh.He says he wants to play 40 games a season for us, I hope he realises this is not the pattern for our centre backs , welcome and good luck to him. UTI
I don't think some people get it.
We flirted with relegation and finished 17th last season
This will be just the start of building a new squad by a new manager, they all do it.
It's not a case of who from last season plays where. A lot of them will be gone and rightly so. They're either permanently injured or just not good enough.
