Trai Hume

Oxymoronic, wow you're very educated I don't even know what that means, I just want to discuss things not have arguments, thought that is what this group is for, obviously I am wrong.
 

My memory might be doing me wrong here but im sure Hume has scored some screamers for us?

We could do with a bit of that atm.
 
The 1st throughball which maguire defends incredibly well is not easy. Maguire gives him nothing compare that to villas 3rd where onien gives them everything. Hume had a good game and his work in final third where he fell short is the same place everyone wanted diarra dropped for not being good enough!
 
He did fluff his passes a couple of times in the final third but Brobbey's run for the main one was so bad, Le Feè would have been the only player with a chance of finding him.

He could have drifted off on the left and there would have been more space to receive the ball or cut across the right and either took the defender away or given himself space.

Instead, he ran directly behind the defender, allowing him to mark Brobbey and prevent Hume from making and easy pass it running towards goal.

Well said.

I dont think this has been analysed / criticised enough. It would have taken Messi to find Brian on that run.
 
Now I can see why people don't post on here, simple questions, opinions,, but so many angry people who don't want to listen to others thoughts without becoming argumentative, bit like the lunatic lefties and green party supporters.
 
He done well today but them two through balls he passed straight to a Man Utd player were criminal. It’s not his fault though he’s not a midfield player.

I would actually be playing Diarra in that position.
The shot he had shortly after too, you could see on his face he just couldn't work out who to try to put through so he blammied it into a defender .
Shame as he had a very very good game otherwise , but once he ends up in that 10 position he's lost
 
When he plays right wing it's not massively because of what he's bringing to the attacking intent of the team from that position but because of how he enables a more dynamic system.

He's filling in for the right back, the central midfielders and even the centre halves. That allows a much more unpredictable attack and system but it's a largely thankless task.

That said, when he has those opportunities to provide forward balls he needs to do better.

He's not alone there either. Some nice chipped crosses from the lad over his time here, next phase of development his slotted ground balls into feet from a central position to someone running into the box. You know, the ones we used to see from Gary Neville on a regular basis. ;)
 
I've said this before and I'll repeat. If Trai had 10-20% more pace he'd be hunted by the top 4, for us he's reliable and comitted - thats all I really ask of a defender.
 
He’s a right back.

Play him at right back please.
I think our team would suit a 5-3-2 perfectly but obviously they're it's no way RLB will deviate it seems.

Slide Hume back to RB and play mayenda or isidor instead of talbi and i think it plays far more to everyone's strengths. That's not a criticism of talbi who had a solid game btw
