Re-Shaping The Team

[CAPSLOCK]

Haha

Well, who was it

You tell us. Go on?

Which bit of I don't know do you not bet
God squad suggests a centre back.....

[Bruce Rioja]

I guess I'm in a seriously threatened minority - but I don't think that Alonso's as crap as people make out... he looked better when he had a couple of games in a row - a luxury he's hardly ever had - but then got injured again... he has had some decent moments in a white shirt... and not much time on the pitch to establish himself..

Exact-a-mundo.

I agree Bish but I'm just not convinced he should be a left back. He's just not quick or mobile enough. He does have a good left foot strikes the ball well and is decent in the air.Reckon he's pop a goal or two in from midfield. I imagine DF may think he's not fit enough and he may well be right at present.

Of the precious few good full backs that we've had within my lifetime, I don't recall any of them being particularly quick or noticeably mobile.

How many good fullbacks in the modern game are not quick or mobile?

Well, Tyrone Mears is fairly quick and mobile. More so that say Neil Cox. Which is/was the better right back, Magnus?

[Athers]

01 Robinson
04 Samba
31 Hanley
08 Dunn Booked
10 Formica Booked (Goodwillie - 65' )
12 Pedersen
15 Nzonzi
29 Vukcevic (Rochina - 65' )
35 Lowe Booked
23 Hoilett
24 Yakubu

I reckon Jason Lowe

[Lord Kangana]

Folk have got short memories of some of the spunk dribble we've had at fullback if they reckon Alonso is the worst.

If he's coached properly and kept fit he can be a decent fullback. Its pointless keep wasting money throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

Exact-a-fecking-mundo! Apparently opposing sides are given to playing wrong-footed nine year olds against him though which make his lot a little easier,

[officer_dibble]

Only once. Every other game he's been shit.
Plus he's injury prone. But he is good at making court cases dissapear (allegedly).

If he makes it under a proper manager fair does - but from what I've seen to date he's up there with Grald Cid.

[Prufrock]

It was Jason Lowe, I remember the perma-tan.

Alonso is shite.

[plymouth wanderer]

None of it matters tho because the cvnt should be banged up

Well, you may have a point

He hasn't been coached for 3 fcuking years

However....

I'd expect a pro footballer to look like he knows where his feet should be when faced with a winger

Specially a left footed winger playing on the right wing

The guy wasn't even a winger....

[CAPSLOCK]

Ermmm, I know I'm getting old, but I thought it was Duff who spent 90 minutes laughing at him

Alonso was begging to come off

[boltonboris]

Thought you were still on Blackburn.. Apologies

[Sponge]

What happened with that?

[CAPSLOCK]

Thought you were still on Blackburn.. Apologies

No, Blackburn was when he looked like Roberto Carlos

I honestly think you'd have done better against Duff

[plymouth wanderer]

Nothing so far mate which is a disgrace

He'll no doubt wriggle out of it somehow

Fvcker

[bristolwanderer]

Alonso needs time and a run out like every other player does..

[boltonboris]

"Needs time"... Gotta be a jail related joke in there somewhere...
