If they get the same level of cover as Hume did, then anyone that plays left wing back.

Hume has been poor in the first two games of the season but he’s really being thrown under the bus here like.

A young’ish kid without any real experience, being asked to play an unusual position in a strange formation (that nobody else seems to understand either) and given very little protection or cover from his centre halves or midfielders on that side.
This 100%

None of that stops you heading and tackling or generally competing though

Oviedo was a complete waste of money, bang average but on Premier league wages....Sorry like, save some ££ and get another average left back and we move forward.
Oviedo may have been on high wages but he was certainly not bang average at this level. He was clearly a cut above other players. I'm all for getting a new left back but by Saturday we could be 4 games in without a competent LB.
 
Ridiculous wasn't it. He isnt a right back and at the age of 24 he shouldn't even be under consideration for YPOTY

But we don't have a fit LB so someone has to adapt and traditionally a RB will switch to LB when required. Matthews did it reasonably successfully on occasions for us.

flanagn has played at left back in the football league more than any other player presenrly t the club..including hume..
 
dont panic lads and lasses. Ive been called up. I'm only 69 so lacking a bit pace these days.

got me boots out the loft this afternoon, gave them a polish.

cant do any worse than Hume,
 
I very much doubt this lad is injured, I predict it will be a long time before we see him starting games for us again. If at 20 year old you are getting the piss took out of you by plodders in League One then your career is only going in one direction, he'll be turning out for someone like South Shields before the seasons out.
 
I agree it's shite mate but tomorrow is a case of NOT having a fit player for the position as opposed to the manager sticking square pegs in round holes.
Its hardly great prepation for the season. A left back should have been lined up once they knewJames was leaving as it was pretty obvious Oviedo was away
We have no fullbacks do we? Desperate for a left back
Yip we were actively looking for one to leave and we lost the other one. Poor planning going into the season with one left back

Mr Pastry fucked again. Jeez couldn't see that coming. On loan left back in.....quick.
 
Feel sorry for the lad. Only young and has been left exposed both with lack of replacements for James/Oviedo and on the pitch with the formation and Flanagan. Unless injured should have been straight in at left back in a 4-4-2. A decent centre back alongside him would help and fans need to back young kids coming through the ranks, not get on their backs. Just a shitty cup game anyway.
