I understand that, but we still need a CH that doesn't gift the opposition easy goals.If we’re gonna play 5 at the back you have to have a CB who can step into midfield otherwise you’ll be outnumbered.
The Peake era says he possibly could)I have not been a great Lati fan but thought he put in a good shift yesterday. Won a number of telling tackles, was quick to cover. He obviously does not dominate in the air, but contests hard so little is lost. He is also a leader on the pitch.
But is he good enough to be one of 2 at the back given his lack of height? He suits a back 3 which some on here are dead against
How is binks at fault for the second? The entire team fucked it especially with zero pressure on the ball.I understand that, but we still need a CH that doesn't gift the opposition easy goals.
Binks was caught out of position for QPR's equaliser on Tuesday and gifted Luton their second yesterday. At the moment he's a walking liability defensively. Unfortunately Kitching's form isn't much better, but we need to bring in an experienced CH in Jan.
Have you not seen it?How is binks at fault for the second? The entire team fucked it especially with zero pressure on the ball.
Have you not seen it?
Watch the scorers movement, who is the guy marking him?
What does Binks do when the striker makes his run?
You could argue that others could of done better up to the final ball, but if your a CH you absolutely cannot allow a striker to move into space inside the box, receive a simple pass, turn with the ball, and finish without so much as a simple challenge!
That's basics, under 10's football level.
As I said, there's other opportunities to do better in the build up, but ultimately if your CH can be mugged off so easily, your never going to keep a clean sheet.What's Thomas doing? Why are sheaf and Eccles so far away, with no pressure on a midfielder in the centre of the park 25 years from goal?
You are very quick to blame one player. But i think the bigger issue is a player being able to pick that pass so easily.
You can poo poo my reply all you like. It just shows your ignorance to defending.What's Thomas doing? Why are sheaf and Eccles so far away, with no pressure on a midfielder in the centre of the park 25 years from goal?

It’s such a simplistic view to solely blame Binks. We gave their player all the time in the world on the edge of the box to pick the pass, that is the main issue. As a defender you can only react to the striker’s movement so you’ll always be on the back foot.You can poo poo my reply all you like. It just shows your ignorance to defending.
I'm not saying others weren't culpable too.It’s such a simplistic view to solely blame Binks.

lol way too harsh.Our centre backs are absolutely dog shit, I have been saying this since last season. Joel, Thomas, Kitch are at best qpr or Oxford level.
Binks is the best of a bad bunch, I would stick with Binks, bringing in a centre-back back that is top at this level is a must.
Get Kitch off the books, loan him out to a Charlton or a Barnsley, a team his level.
We will never ever get promoted with Kitching, Bobby, Joel and Binks as the 4 centre backs at our club.
Watching Bobby fail to pass a ball 8 yards is also painful, you want to get promoted, you look at how the promoted clubs operate. There is a reason why Burnley wanted nothing to do with the lad.
We do need an older head at the back for sure . You can see why we were linked with Worrall . Finding one for the right money and wages is going to be difficult thoughlol way too harsh.
Binks is statistically one of the best on the ball in the division.
Thomas is fine.
Lati is good defensively but very limited on the ball.
Kitching has struggled yeah.
Get one upgrade in and we’re sorted. As it is I think our selection is actually good enough, just needs more protection.
I think he has all the ability and attributes to play at a higher level but mentally he seems weak . Whether that is down to maturity or intelligence who knows but he won't progress until he addresses itI really really want Kitching to come good.
I know I'm in the minority, but I think there's a decent player there.
He can’t fucking kick a ball, donkey

Comes with being young developing players in regards to consistency. Just bar the course on that note.
Lati’s biggest plus is his reading off the game, helps the entire back line play better when he can organise them. Not as great on the ball but a true out and out defender.
Kitching was very good for our good form last year, could do a great job in the centre of our three.
Binks really won me over today, great use of the ball and amazing driver. Everything you want in a back three. Needs to continue on this path but really positive. Seems a steal for the price.
Thomas is a great sweeper and while can make mistakes, is someone who brings a much needed aggression into the squad.
I would target this area to bring in an experienced CB, to help develop the other four and bring experience to our back line. If we didn’t want to spend big funds on this, would look at plays like Santos at Bolton for this effect. Good ball user, international, 29 years old and A club captain (out of contract this year so wouldn’t cost a lot).

Nothing wrong with league one players. Several of them have made it in the premiership and top end of the championship.Do we really need another division 1 player?
Maybe I was a little harshI’m guessing you got laid between these to posts Cam
It's not a dislike. We have Collins, Kitching, Thomas and Mason-Clark who are still learning there craft in this division. So I would say a more experience Championship/Premier signing would be more appropriate.Nothing wrong with league one players.

Not sure where our dislike of them has come from considering Ben Sheaf had only played in league one, Callum O’Hare had only played in League one when we signed him.
Plus I believe players who play in England will have an easier time adapting then players abroad which in January is key since they don’t get pre season. Just my opinion tho.
That’s fair, just was working off the idea we wouldn’t want to spend much on older heads based on what others have said.It's not a dislike.

Kitching has good distribution. He's very similar to Harry McGuire. Technically quite good, and a sound passer but not very fast. People forget he was one of the main reasons for our brilliant run from Nov-Feb last season. He lost form (as did others) at the end of the season. This season he's been in and out of the team, and hasn't gone back to those levels yet.Does Kitching actually do it well? I genuinely can’t remember.
It can obviously leave us vulnerable on the break if the player is dispossessed, but I’m all for it.
I bet MR is kicking himself over buying Kitching, when for a bit more, he may have been able to prise Doyle from Man City.
He’s been in and out of the team since he joined. We’ve very rarely had a consistent CB pairing in the last season and a bit.Kitching has good distribution. He's very similar to Harry McGuire.

If we do sign Harry Darling I hope we make him captainJust seen Ben Cabango & Harry Darling’s Contracts are up at the end of the year.
Wonder if we would look at them, Harry is a great ball playing CB which could be a great option on the right and Ben is a great physical presence which would be amazing in the middle of a back three.
Would have to imagine though one of our four would have to make way for them.
He can’t fucking kick a ball, donkey
come on, that's a simple passIgnoring his nice little ball around the corner for Torp in the run up to the equaliser
That reminds me of something from Black AdderIf we do sign Harry Darling I hope we make him captain
