Last season when played together they were equally alreet both complimenting each other, a good partnership. Agree on the unsung hero, Nyatanga, this season.
I've seen him play well a number of times. However, every game he seems to make one mistake which costs us a goal and I'm not sure we can afford to carry someone who does that. We've plenty of other players who make mistakes that cost us goals too like, so it might seem unfair singling out M'Voto, but he appears to make them much more often. Having said that, I like the bloke, and I'm happy to keep him at the club as back-up, but I would imagine he wants more from the game than sitting on the subs bench. And to be honest, if either Ramage or Nyatanga were injured I'd move Cranie in to the centre and bring in Bree as full back before selecting M'Voto.
To be fair Whitey almost every player at this level has a mistake or 3 in them, that's why they are playing in this league more often than not - not consistently good enough. It's just unfortunate that when you are a defender or keeper your mistake tends to lead to a goal. A midfielder and striker error doesn't tend to.
None ,am Happy as we are at the moment, but if Mvoto was called upon to do a job, I would be happy with that anall. If he goes at the end of the season, which I think he will, then good look to him but whilst he is here we have a decent squad player.
That doesn't really solve anything. It's like saying would you drop either one of the strikers for Trotta. Possibly, but it doesn't mean the others aren't worth having. At the minute I definitely wouldn't drop Lewin or Ramage. But if form dips BFJ could step in nicely. IMO.
I'm with you, Chris. He's not had a fair shot yet with us at this level. I'm only saying he was **** last season. Ramage was too, for much of his first loan spell...
Fair to say he is not consistently good enough. He has had some good games. But these have generally been followed by a string of sub standard ones. I think if cover was needed at CH Danny would move Cranie back in and play Bree. BFJ problem is he makes far too many mistakes this undoes any good work he does. I don't mind having him round as cover but he probably wants to play more at this stage of his career as he's probably 4th chioce CH.
The answers are already on the wall ... or for you Dylan fans ... blowing in the wind. Back 4, (avoiding injuries in place)... if there was a centre back injury I would see Cranie in there & Bree back in as full back...
