I pray Ricco is back next week

[Steeds Right Peg]

Another god performance from bardo, but he fads in the 2nd half and cannot Mark his man/or make a tackle when someone is running at him to save his life

Is frightening how much space he gives the right winger some times

I await the abuse for this post with open ears

bardsley has done well but richardson is our best option at LB so why would abuse head your way?

if the mags play routledge (sp?) then richardson would be correct choice as he has pace to burn but absolutely no tricks/skill in his locker.

Agreed, Bardsley is solid enough but We miss Richardson as an attacking threat the amount of times today and Monday against Blackburn PB had room down the left but comes inside whereas KR would have bombed on.

When they were doubling up on him in the second half he neither went to the ball, or went to the man on the over lap, even when helped out by Steed.

And when he has a man running at him he just runs away from them and when he puts a tackle in it's a foul.

Richardson has to come back in on Sunday if he is fit.

Rico can man mark and tackle? Three clean sheets in a row with Bardsley at LB. How many with Rico?

He was luck not to give away a penalty when he committed himself like that in the box.

Kept on showing Downing the inside every fucking time. It's obvious he can't use his right foot, force him down the line. Annoyed me like mad.

Agreed - you do not change a defence that has recently done so well.

Yes. Next question.

Unfortunately, it's also obvious that Bardo can't use his left foot. Odd match up really a winger on his wrong foot against a fullback on his wrong foot.
