Did anyone on here, hear Bruce say this on the radio last night? I've seen a few people talk about it on FB and Twitter but didn't hear it myself.
 
He won player of the year last season playing there so I don't have much of a problem with this, unless a good left back becomes available.
 
I hope not.

He did a good enough job last season when we were struggling but he's not the long term solution.
 
He won player of the year last season playing there but he's not left footed so we must replace him according to the experts on here.

He must be replaced because he's not good enough, the fact he's so right footed just makes matters worse.
 
He never said that. He just said Bardo did a good job there last season "but we'll have to see" or words to that effect.

So no.

Thanks for the response, other people I know suggest he actually said he is our first choice lb. I hope you're right and not them.
 
He's hardly going to say 'I put him there cause we were desperate and he'll be out as soon as I can get a specialist in' is he?
 
If he is viewed as our first choice left back next season then it will be a complete joke.
 
I said yesterday he's the best left back at the club
Richardson is garbage
 
He looked good enough to me last season. Plenty of players that should be replaced before him.

Do you only remember his goals and putting some effort in but have forgotten him being woefully inadequate and being at fault for a large number of goals conceded?

Oddly enough, he did use an excuse not too dissimilar to saying that though. I distinctly remember him saying something about us having a centre back at right back (Onuoha) and a right back at left back (Bardsley).

I will never forgive Bruce if he sees Bardsley as our first choice LB next season.

I'd be worried as it will show Bruce hasn't learned and for all the good work he does in the transfer market, he can't see the painfully obvious, ie the complete lack of balance in our side.

His weaknesses at left back are glaringly obvious. He struggles to cope when attacked on his left side and he has to cut inside when attacking, and his delivery suffers immensely as a result.

Na I remember him being a very solid defender who chipped in with a couple of great goals.

Hope he is first choice lb next season he deserves it.

I thought he had it figured on the last game of the season where he played Bardsley in his correct position and shifted Colback to LB for some balance.

If he's gone back on this (and it's still just an if) then I would doubt his tactical nous even more than I do now.
 
He was talking about how it is difficult to guess which is his best foot. This is something i have always had trouble with.

He chipped in with one from left back. He cost us more goals in one game (Wolves) than he scored goals from there man.
