Is it true 8 starts and 8 wins this season??

That’s pretty impressive isn’t it?

In the league 8 starts, 5 wins, 3 draws, 2 clean sheets. A start and a loss in the cup.

Fair play to him. Bided his time, has come in and done a decent job.

Kudos.

Yes, awful pass that led to the chance Bamford ought to have scored from. Lati does seem to have a knack though of being a bit lucky in that his occasional errors on the ball don't lead to goals. That is something you can't put a value on. He is however defensively solid and reliable off the ball, which the team were starting to cry out for, and his recent selection has undoubtedly given us a more solid foundation.

Thomas did one just as bad never gets mentioned. Kitching does about five a game. It’s confirmation bias all the way down.

Wolves & Norwich instantly come to mind.

I don’t think it is. The general trend is that we conceded more goals when we play Lati than when we didn’t. That was the case up until the last few games.

Kitching in particular had a bad run of games and unfortunately for him, played himself out of the starting 11.

Irrespective of league status next season, a marquee signing needs to be a CB. I think Thomas could make the grade and Lampard rates him highly but I don’t have confidence that Lati, Kitching and Wolf can make the step up.

To be fair Lati did it at West Brom as well. Any opposition manager watching will see opportunities there if you can press him on the ball.

I really was one of the Lati doubters when he started to come back into the frame but ….although there’s still time, he hasn’t actually done a lot wrong. Thomas still gives the ball away a lot more than him. His pace is always a worry but usually if the opposition knock a long ball over the top of him then we have a very alert top class keeper waiting to mop up.

Wolf all ready made the step up with Ipswich. Got to give him a chance

I think it's more than a run of games for Kitching. He's been inconsistent since probably West Brom (H) way back in November when he was largely culpable for both their goals.

He'd be badly exposed in the PL IMO.

I think that Lati is a very solid player.

His flexibility has also been useful to us, although it isn't that important now we have greater squad depth.

As a bit part player who they would’ve lets us sign in Jan 2025 had Ipswich first choice CBs been fit.

If he’s nominally 4th choice this season, is there a future for him next season? Frankly, we probably need 2 CBs as things stand if we got promoted.
