Some good posts on this one.. I dont agree with that bit tho, I think thats half the point, when you have 3 proper defenders defending the box then teams getting the ball wide isnt such an issue. At the same time, having someone like Lolley *the old lolley that is, would be great at breaking from that role.The problem with playing wing backs is you take away the need for Lolley, Ameobi and Knockheart, unless you play one of them at wing back which would be a tremendous gamble.
Mind you, I think Ribz does ok. Hes still learning hsi trade to a degree in a new country and hes been commendable. I think he does pass well into the midfield and gets forward and yes his crossing is poor but thats as much about Grabban n co not being in there to cross to most the time anyway so it just breaks down whoever ends up in that position as we have seen all year.
I think what is clear is that there the opportunity to try it has been there and to not have tried it is just pretty naff from a progressive football stance. One dimensional management meh. I mean it is one dimensional right?
