LoneWolf Posted 21 July 2005 Share Posted 21 July 2005 imo we need a left mid more than him but still he looks like he will do well the teams getting really good now, the challenge in deffence is gonna keep all the players working hard at training and even harder on the pitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ideally we could've signed someone who's natural position is left back but is comfortable further forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sylla will provide the width down the right, Gilbert will look to get forward down the left as our left winger will play alot more narrow. It makes sense, similar to what England do with Ashley Cole.

It is to allow Tiatto to drift in so we have extra bodies in the middle to win the ball and initiate attacks. I don't particularly rate Wilcox either, but he will provide some balance down the left if we want to stretch the play. However, as we're having the left side narrow, it won't matter that much if Williams and Hughes are played there, despite it not being their best position. We only had Sheehan as a natural left back, and he's played just one game for us, so it makes sense that we've gone for Gilbert, who has some games under his belt and has experience in this division. Next target is a striker, then I think we need back up for Sylla, as he is our only out and out right winger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially now Weso is injured, he would have filled in for Sylla on the right easily. I would like to see Levi Porter given a run-out in a friendly with the first team on the wing, he has the potential to make the step up in my opinion.

Our play was too predictable on Monday. All our attacks were down the right hand side and as Stearman isn't a left back we were unbalanced. Hopefully Gilbert will balnce the side.

Poorest player in the squad. If it's true, thank god we're getting rid of him. Poor old Leicester though..."

Remember how much some of our fans slagged Stewart off and some rated him. I'll reserve judgement until I see him. Sheehan seems to have bags of potential so both of them should do alright for us when called upon. To be fair, how many of Levein's signings have been crap? I know it's early days but Sylla and Douglas were given an ear bashing from Celtic fans and they looked class on monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds exactly like Jordan was and is Sheehan really good enough to compete for the left back slot? I don't know. I've not seen enough of him at this level.

Any manager who let's a players motivation slip deserves a kick up the arse aswell, i'd be confident he'll feel his place is under threat with the players we have who can play there.
