    Due to our clear shortages at full back does Cole Kpekawa get another opportunity or is he injured. Not heard much since his arrival?

    He's a centre half in my opinion, if he needs development that's where they should be concentrating on

    I don't get the "he is a center half" thing he was brought here as a full back who can also play center back. He's pretty quick and got forward well he put some decent balls in and also got two assists in the few games he played. Positionally he was awful at times but I just don't know what makes people think makes him a center half? Because he's tall? Were not playing for a school team now where two biggest lads are center halves. Probley see more of cole next season especially as white keeps getting crippled.

    My problem with him at full back is that the (few) times I've seen him he looks fast in a straight line but has the turning circle of the QEII. Not a problem at centre half, but a big problem out wide.

    I just don't get how people think he is a center half when they have never seen him play that position. He was a left back at qpr who could play center half and same here I expect. I don't think he is ready for the championship as a left back he needs some developing but I think that's his position and not center half. Just my opinion.

    I think the problem we have with Kpekawa is that he clearly isn't a full back.

    I think the main problem is he is really bad at football.

    Looked hopeless at full back. Evans looks fair more reliable. At the same time we have had a fair amount of time with him in training now so he may have improved.
