Aye he played well but tonight was a stroll for the entire defence, let's see how they fare on Saturday. Willis is the star of the back 3 imo mind, who'd have thought Phil Parkinson would have us employing overlapping centre halves?!

Spot on. For the record i like Wright and I'm happy for him to stay in the side now he has the shirt but there's really not much between them. Wright is maybe the more technically gifted of the 2 but Ozturk is bigger and stronger. i truly believe we'd have got something at Portsmouth had Ozturk been in over Wright as he dealt with all their rough arse tactics at home this season and in the play offs before that. Bearing in mind Parkinsons reluctance to change things (i think we all expected changes tonight) it makes Ozturks situation all the more unlucky. John has yet to make the squad and Scowen didn't get on tonight so why was Parkinson so desperate to get Wright in the side?He is ok, no more, no less, I will say it until I am blue in the face that Ozturk was doing exactly the same job and has found himself really unlucky to be out of the team.
I can see his attributes and I would agree he is better footballer than Ozturk but he isn't a cut above at all or instantly our best centre half, he is another average lower league centre half who will have some good days and some bad. He wasn't tested defensively today like Saturday and the week previously against Pompey where imo he made some errors where he had to be pulled out of the shite by others around him.
I would have looked alright playing centre tonight against a team who were happy to play with the ball in their half for most of it.
Having said that he will do for me if we continue to get clean sheets.
That might be it. I remember reading a loan catch up interview with Pickford when he was at Preston and he was asked how he was getting on, he said Wright was a big help as he was a great talker on the pitchExcellent talker as well, certainly benefits the rest of the back line.
aye, remember when he turned his back on a shot for goal, was ridiculed on here, turned out the gifted one.Kirchoff was beyond shite in his first start for the club.
Looks our best player tbhFuck knows how we’ve managed to get him while in league one. Looks a cut above and was quality again tonight.
I just hope we sign him permanently at the end of the season. He’ll do well for us in the Championship.Fuck knows how we’ve managed to get him while in league one. Looks a cut above and was quality again tonight.
Which we don't play.Doing alright so far but think he would struggle in a back four!
