Nigel Pearson on St Ledger

[OzFox]

I wish our centre halves were more of a threat in the opposition box. Even when we do manage the occasional threatening set piece, Bamba climbs all over defenders and gives away a free kick, or puts in powder puff headers. Mills rarely causes any problems. Same for Tunch & SSL.

the current crop look pretty poor when compared to Walsh/Elliott/Taggart , McAuley/Kisnorbo etc. Even Vitor/Bruma looked more threatening last year

Bamba is BY FAR our best central defender.

This explains why we are where we are then
