Solbauer will have plenty of battle scars, mostly on his arse with the amount of slide tackling he does.
I noticed that on his Promo video. Doesn't stay on his feet too much when trying to win the ball. Up against pace I can see him struggling to time these challenges correctly.
Maybe there will be the usual last minute flurry? The ‘little pen’ on Twitter, followed by several announcements. Should keep us quiet, shouldn’t it?
Hopefully Alex can go back to his favourite position. Ritzmaier s injury could be a blessing in disguise.
I have actually thought Ritzmaier has looked OK, I’d like to see him and Mowatt in a central 2, with brown right and either Woodrow and Chaplin up top and a new option on the left or Chaplin left and a new striker. Let halme and the new centre back play at the back (I would still also like a right back and another centre half in)
if he can solidify that defence and keep us up he can come in as mayor of Barnsley as far as I am concerned
As soon as you’re off your feet you’re just showing something went wrong in the defensive shape and coordination of the team. Should be the last resort not something to put in your highlights video!
