Amato 3,010 Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 He's a... somewhat... competent defender. In terms of attacking play though he offers absolutely nothing. Actually less than nothing, he has negative impact because the play breaks down when he's required to find a pass that isn't backwards or sideways.

gmcf 33,940 Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Just thinking out loud here , but I wonder if SG is planning making him our No1 LB next season . Much in the way SG is now playing Goldson and Katic now that Worrall is no longer in his plans , I'm wondering if this is why Flanigan is getting a run if games over Barisic and Halliday .

Dunno if it’s that or just that he was given a chance because we had no one else available and he played well so doesn’t deserve to lose his place.

Along with professional players who can only use one foot. He has played as a FULL back for years (on the right granted) just because you are playing on the opposite side of the pitch doesn't mean you need to learn a new position. Any full back should be competent playing on either side. How do wingers manage to swap sides during a game??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TopCat 4,511 Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Think he is a decent squad player,,, played really well today. Under rated by many on here imo. RowX and TMB 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMB 14,167 Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 He provides cover for the fullbacks and is a better defender than many on here make out. He’s never going to give us the sort of attacking impact Tavernier does but very few full-backs can create 20+ goals a season. Hard to believe he was an EPL defender and got an England cap. Doesn’t seem to be anywhere near that standard. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

siddiqi_drinker 14,635 Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 If Barisic does not improve have no problems with Flanagan being our LB - only 26 and better than any other available options. Cedrick 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flanagan doesn’t have to be concerned Worrall is going to do something crazy and gives him more confidence to play his style. I do like Worrall btw, but much much prefer Katic.
