bald reynard Posted 28 August 2005 Share Posted 28 August 2005 Does ANYONE know why Tiatto NEVER plays at Left Back ? He came here as a Left Back, yet I can not recall one instance of him playing there for us. Did MA write into his contract that he should never play in that position - well CL certainly seems to have read that as well. Even I forgot that Tiatto was a Left Back when I was discussing options there insteed of Maybury on Friday. And we definitely need options instead of Maybury after yesterdays performance - and Tiatto's 'midfield efforts'. We need a good clear out - Sylla out, Tiatto out (in midfield), Dublin out, Stearman rested - how about Douglas/Henderson (I can't make my mind up !), Maybury, McCarthy, Johansson, Tiatto, Hughes (when back), Gudjonsson, Williams, Hamill, Connolly, Hammond ?

Libertine Posted 28 August 2005 Share Posted 28 August 2005 Unfortunately he's even worse at left back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluefoxtim Posted 28 August 2005 Share Posted 28 August 2005 Maybe hes born with it, Maybe its Maybury is a RIGHT BACK, and is 10 times better there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anish Posted 28 August 2005 Share Posted 28 August 2005 Tiatto is no left back. Reckless and needless fouls are bad enough in midfield, but they'd be worse if made near our penalty area - with our record of defending set pieces. He's not got the discipline to play left back either- he'll drift forward or into midfield and cause all sorts of problems for our defence. In my opinion he should be playing in centre midfield (though not while Joey's playing well) or not at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thracian Posted 28 August 2005 Share Posted 28 August 2005 Hard to argue with that unless CL can persuade him not to concede free kicks at left-back where he could actually be an asset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durnerz Posted 28 August 2005 Share Posted 28 August 2005 Like most have said I don't think Tiatto has the positional discipline to play at Left back, he's effective on the left buzzing about here there and everywhere and does hold onto the ball well taking us across midfield. Momo Sylla i'd worry about more than anyone, promises so much and delivers so little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The People's Hero Posted 28 August 2005 Share Posted 28 August 2005 As has correctly been pointed out, Tiatto lacks discipline as regards positioning, awareness and committing fouls. His presence in the team even in midfield comes at the expense of team shape and to have him in the back four would cause further disarray IMO. I admire his all action attitude etc... but to be honest I'd be happy to see him leave. Bring back Freundy! : P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
