I think Morgan switched to the left centre half position. Maybe go three at the back for Everton? In his first proper game for us when by all accounts everybody was 70% fit. Deserves another chance at CB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbtcity Posted 18 December 2016 Share Posted 18 December 2016 Imagine Hernandez against the pace and power of lukaku..... it's a pass for me he got bullied by Marc Pugh the other day he'd get eaten alive by lukaku, I personally think amartey should be given a bash, he's been playing really well at cm lately but he's got all the attributes to be a quality cb,plus with DD/Mendy/maybe Ndidi to come into the fold cb could be the perfect solution for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Posted 18 December 2016 Share Posted 18 December 2016 he's not slower than Huth, Hernandez has decent pace for a CB but none for a FB, he's also a decent ball player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he is quicker than the guy that has been playing there who has rarely been exposed due to lack of pace. Also no one would think of Albrighton as being quick as Walcott but there were stats last season to show he was one of the quickest in our squad, so for all you know Pugh could be the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesta2014 Posted 18 December 2016 Share Posted 18 December 2016 He looks unnatural in his running style which certainly makes him look slow. Stick him centre back where it's his preferred position and see how he does. A new centre back is a must in January though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxes21 Posted 3 January 2017 Share Posted 3 January 2017 Hope Hernandez starts the Everton match. Although I'd like to see him have a chance at CB, we've signed him as a RB. That was pretty clear, when Claudio chose Wasilewski ahead of him against Everton. So maybe we should give him another chance at RB in the cup, with a winger infront of him that knows how to defend (Albrighton). I think the potential is there to be a decent RB. But like most of our summer signings he needs time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the days when we had full backs supplementing the wingers rather than wingers that were acting as second full backs, feels like a long time since we played with that freedom. Play him at CB or don't play him at all. Have we got any boss right backs in the academy that could be given a chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
