I did watch him carefully one game and reckon 90% of his passes were back passes when the better option was to pass forward, lack of confidence or lack of ability? I like Hodson, I think he's a better defender than Tav, but not as good going forward. As you say a lot of his passes go back or sideways, could be getting nicknamed 'The Crab' if he keeps it up. I thought that they both performed better when Tav was played in midfield, just in front of Hodson. They looked as if they had a good understanding of each other, where one of them was up in the last third of the pitch, the other held back as cover. I used to like seeing Wallace, and McKay, on the same wing because they hooked up well going forward, and Wallace scored a few goals when they did. That won't be happening any more though, which just goes to show how much I know. I'm gagging for the new season to start. Feel like a junkie needing his next fix, and giro day is not close enough for me. RM is just a methadone substitute. ??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough as u say all about opinions but I actually can't stick tav and wish he was sold Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeyserSoze 14,530 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 can he not play on the left? I heard he could play on the left..... I'm sure he was versatile in that respect... like playing either RB or LB...no? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He really isn't any better than Wallace at left back; if anything he's worse. He's a solid enough defender, though he does mistime tackles; he either passes sideways, or back passes, too often, and like most Warburton signings he seems more interested in getting shot of the ball and responsibility when doing so. He doesn't offer much at all. I'd agree we need better full backs, but Hodson isn't better than our starters. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, I think Tav is a better midfielder than a RB so we really need to address the RB and LB positions - unless Pedro has worked with Tav to stop his lolly gagging about the place and with Waldo to try and close that fucking gap in behind him that so many opposition goals have come from.. I'll wait and see - but yes Hodson is not the answer in any scenario Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneDavidCooper 2,505 Posted July 18, 2017 Author Share Posted July 18, 2017 I'm unconvinced too but simply wanted to know if he was injured or not. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HG5 11,112 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Thought we might have been onto something after his winner v the sheep. Sadly, that was just about as good as it got. Seeing him obviously stressed by the simple act of taking throw-ins tells me he has no further role to play with us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedWhiteBlue1872 407 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 A player that MK Dons or whoever the fuck it was loaned out to Kilmarnock, then we buy him or get him for peanuts. That alone should be enough to just end the conversation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
