That's down to the formation (and a dodgy keeper) more than Thomas and Kitching.Think they’ve both improved massively throughout the season tbf. But then stats don’t lie, we concede too many goals and so we need to upgrade at least one of them for me. Most prob Kitching.
We definitely need an upgrade as regards depth of quality in the centre back areaThey are good enough but surely we’d want to upgrade everywhere if possible.
Our form across two seasons with him playing is solidly play offsIt's funny how many on here see Kitching as the weak link but both in this season and last our form picked up once he was playing regularly.
Agree with this BUT cannot believe how stupid they are with some of their challenges...often as last night in opponents box and giving free kicks away, getting booked and stopping our momentum..it happens a lot in many matches. This is deffo something that stern words from coaches and other players should sort....but doesnt seem to have been improved in recent weeks. Second huge criticism is their passing....dont mind the occassional 30 to 40 yard pass going astray BUT they are both dreadfull at hitting 15 -20 yard passes STRAIGHT to opponents UNBELIEVABLE at timesThey are both relatively young for CB
Keep them together and they will develop into a strong pairing
And he leads the back line well , DaSilva especially has improved with Kitching as the inside centre back on his sideOur form across two seasons with him playing is solidly play offs
He was incredible in both games but before the first leg wasn't considered to be startingNeither as good as Ballard, that's the level we need. He was like a prime Fadz.
That would cost us loads though ?I've voted upgrade both
However that's in an ideal world. I think as a pairing they are definitely good enough to have us pushing for top 6, but we don't want to push for it now, we want to be solidly in that top 4 or 5 all season. So on that basis I feel we need to go up a notch
100% this. Thomas alongside a genuine experienced leader at the back would be a formidable pairing. Thomas and Kitching is sometimes great, and sometimes very much not great. Thomas is the one with the potential to get better.Unless we’re saying all out defensive issues are down to Bidwell and Dasilva we need an upgrade at CB. Thomas is OK but he needs someone calmer and more organised alongside him IMO.
He'd been out with a hamstring injury.He was incredible in both games but before the first leg wasn't considered to be starting
This ^^ Both are good but we need better if we want to do betterI've voted upgrade both
