8watp8 254 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 I always thought he was left mid and had that opinion before he signed, not all that pacey but i thought he played on the left. However it seems that Lewis is being put out wide with Law through the middle, is he actually a centre mid, what position did he play at Motherwell?

Bluepeter9 5,167 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Well at least it's a football thread - I don't really buy into the whole natural position thing. Many mid-fielders can play the wider roles just as well as a central role - some may be better at one or another - but you find that all over the park in modern football - defenders who can play any place along the back - forwards that can play defence etc. law is a case in point - I think he could do a job anyplace on midfield and based on others available he will be asked to cover a few positions.

MasterD 7,436 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 He played both from the left and in the middle at Motherwell. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SE5 107 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Not sure but i have noticed he has played a bit deeper in the last 2 matches for some reason. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

johanhentze 14,154 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 In my opinion, he is proving to be too important for us to be playing anywhere apart from through the middle. Most of our play goes through him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doughnut001 7 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 He is clearly an accomplished centre mid, I've not seen him on the left so can't really comment. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravelingWilBEARy 4,319 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Albertz played left mid for us very successfully. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Custer 516 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 I like him in the middle, he has the pysical presence and leadership qualitys to influence games and his teammates. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyc06 6,915 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Looks good through the middle and could be paired up with Lewis in centre mid dependant on what happens with Black! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
allgers 735 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Reading through the posts on here, I can sense another thing Law does, he is giving the fans hope that we will see some drive and commitment from the midfield, it was surely lacking last season.

Redwhiteandblue 3,330 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Albertz played left mid for us very successfully.Aye, but he usually had someone likr McCann or Numan to provide the width. Albertz was at his best when driving through the middle, leftside CM if you will. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
