“Every time he plays we leak goals” I mean this is just bollocks the one season he played the most we had one of the better defences in the division we haven’t “leaked goals” for about ten years.
Don’t get why so many people rate him. He's not “serviceable” or “decent”, every time he plays we leak goals.
Some of you lot would have persevered with Lati and Binks and we’d be nowhere near top.
Sorry I must have misremembered Lati, Binks and Collins throwing away points every week.“Every time he plays we leak goals” I mean this is just bollocks the one season he played the most we had one of the better defences in the division we haven’t “leaked goals” for about ten years.
9 clean sheets in the 29 games he started last season. We only kept 14 in total. I'd say you're talking shite.Don’t get why so many people rate him. He's not “serviceable” or “decent”, every time he plays we leak goals.

Let me explain it to you so a child can understand.
Lats isnt getting a game, he isnt going to get a game unless we lose 2 of the 3 players ahead of him, and even then there's no guarantee that Bidwell may be asked to cover instead of lats. So he ain't getting a game!!!!
Still with me?
Now if we accept that he ain't getting a game, we would be better off selling him or loaning him, or even (as a last resort) paying up his contract so he can move on.
That would then allow us to bring in another CH to add to the squad to add depth and the much needed competition for places that Lats has failed to offer.
Do you understand now???? If not go and show this post to a grown up and ask them to explain it to you.
There's a good boy.
Honestly, its like talking to fucking morons on here.Add another centre half - who’d hardly get a game…
It’s just not a position that needs sorting in the same way the centre mid and wide attacking ones do, nothing more to it than that.Let me explain it to you so a child can understand.

He has been injured so can’t complain about the lack of game time. Do you think three centre backs is all the squad needs - bizarre!
I don’t want to move him on
I find your lack of reading comprehension bizarre! Did you miss the part where I said…
You could maybe try replying based on what people have said?Replying to a general vibe.
Nobody played well that day though let's be honestThat right back performance two seasons a go against Birmingham away still gives me nightmares and made me realise that Latty was not the answer
True but he was particularly badNobody played well that day though let's be honest

Tbf even now, many would be happy to see Latts, Allen, Eccles, Bidwell and Simms move on in January, and despite Wright scoring for fun early on this season, his form has dipped to the extent that there's now a "Haji Shite" thread, live on this very forum. (Although personally I do rate him and would keep him, despite his roller coaster form)Before the end of last season several fans would have been happy to get rid of Lati, Allen, Eccles, Bidwell, Asante, Simms and Wright.
Here we are sitting top with ridiculous stats and they have all featured, apart from Lati who has been injured. But Lati can cover several positions if required. Okay not first choice but a decent short term fix. That is what you need from a squad player.
Some posters on here think they are Frank Lampard when they are clearly not.
I remember that. I thought it was an excellent piece of brave defending by himHis pace is his limitation but he is a solid, aggressive defender who reads the game well. I mentioned on another thread, I don't believe Keiffer Moore would have bullied him as he did Woolfie, despite Lati being a lot shorter.
I remember Preston away last season where he was brilliant and one diving header from our 6 yard box to stop a certain goal, at risk of being clattered.
Not sure on Eccles or Simms.Tbf even now, many would be happy to see Latts, Allen, Eccles, Bidwell and Simms move on in January, and despite Wright scoring for fun early on this season, his form has dipped to the extent that there's now a "Haji Shite" thread, live on this very forum.

Only BTA has come back from last season as a rejuvenated player, looking like a serious threat, and being our most improved player.
So in short your little rant doesn't really stand up to any scrutiny
Also v error prone. WBA away last season did him in for good. Whenever Lati and Binks played last season as a pair, we were v likely to concede 2 goals. Those 2 selection decisions by Robins was madness and genuinely was the beginning of the end.His pace is his limitation but he is a solid, aggressive defender who reads the game well.

Went to the FA cup game with an Ipswich fan. As soon as I saw Lati at RB I called we were toast. He is definitely not a RB, far too slow. Has a very odd running style.That right back performance two seasons a go against Birmingham away still gives me nightmares and made me realise that Latty was not the answer
In fairness, we keep a lot more clean sheets and concede less goals when Thomas-Kitching played CB, than Lati-Binks, Lati-Thomas and Lati-Kitching. There is a general pattern there.9 clean sheets in the 29 games he started last season. We only kept 14 in total. I'd say you're talking shite.

He’s more comfortable in a back 3 and without crunching any numbers… I’m pretty confident theyd show two things: first, he concedes less playing 3 atb and a higher proportion of clean sheets.
He seems to be getting on quite well to be fair! He’s a player that probably has a lot of upside in the right environment. However, the stats are pretty damning for him in his time with us. We kept v few clean sheets whenever he played and whilst defending is a team effort, the correlation of goals conceded and Binks starts couldn’t be ignored.Speaking of Binks… anyone know how he’s getting on at his new club?

I don’t think many people on here can understand your urge to spend time and resources on overhauling a squad that is currently top of the league by a comfortable margin.Tbf even now, many would be happy to see Latts, Allen, Eccles, Bidwell and Simms move on in January

Frank is happy to have them here and has them top of the League. I will go with what Frank decides. I have always been happy with BTA as a signing. Dasilva is in a different class this season.
I never rant. You must be mistaking me for the egotistical noise that exists in your head, goodbye.
So what you’re saying is, you hate Dasilva and BTA and would gladly see them transfer listed ahead of Lati?
He would have smashed that into the back of the net if he was playing for usHe seems to be getting on quite well to be fair! He’s a player that probably has a lot of upside in the right environment.
