barcodebear 85 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I don't think singing players "just for backup" in part of Warburton's philosophy.As he's said, everyone who's here needs to get game time and they all have a part to play. We don't have players who are there just for backup.For singing jingle bells at the Club Xmas party? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

raging blue 1972 894 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 pretty sure danny wilson can play left back as well so if ball was struggling they can always swap positions during the game Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeHaw 513 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Wilson can be moved to left back if needed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamFyfe 1,438 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I wouldn't be against it Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueballss 2,969 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 No, we just have to go with what we have Ball will do a good job when needed.We may see one of the young players given a chance. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ibroxholm 2,276 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Can't see this happening. Warburton has been pretty explicit in his interviews that our trading is done as far as this transfer window is concerned. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMax399 3,704 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I think we have enough cover within the squad for the Championship; not so sure about the Premier though. But, MW has already said he likes a lean, competitive squad so i don't think that equates to 2 players for each position. More likely a smaller number of players who can play in a number of positions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Briton 394 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Hasn't the manager stated he wants players who are flexible? Someone who can play left back, maybe. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougie76 15,359 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 No, we stick with what we have and promote from within and at the end of the season or next window see which parts of the team needs strengthing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLawMan 6,240 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I thought he would have dropped Holt into fullback to keep the attacking style of play going. I would also have thought Wilson would be better at LB than Ball as left footed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smile 26,610 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Halliday will cover there once Eustace signs.I wouldn't move Haliday he's been great for us at that position plus he has a goal in him.Always seems a player who could be MOTM every week but not get really the plaudits.

I thought that as well as we have used Wilson on the left Before, i thought Ball did reasonable well and at one point seemed to be thinking he was a striker.

hammer93 15,057 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I think we need a better option than ball imo, ball is a centre half and is far to rigid for the system we play, if we can premote within fair enough but if not then we need to give ourselves better options.

MarvinAndrews 80 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Halliday and Jordan Thompson can play there. So no for me, we're sorted.I'm wondering why Ball played there when either of those 2 would've been a better option for me. Ball looks decent but he's not up to much at LB.

sergio 1,199 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I thought we needed cover for both the full backs, but seeing replies in here that a good few of the guys we have can cover then I am happy enough with that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulReid 184 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Would be a waste of money right now but we will need one eventually. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
