    Of course he's a problem. He doesn't know where to play for a start!

    The phase that ended with Scowen getting sent off started with his poor positional sense and decision making.

    I think that's the longest stretch I've ever seen to criticise a player - even on here!

    Don't see it myself at the moment but I'm wrong about players as often as I'm right. Hope this is another time my judgement is way out.

    This has to be a wind up surely? The kid is terrible going forward and an absolute liability defensively. Is he a CB being asked to play out of position because thats the only explanation I can think of, if not we've just wrote off £400k or whatever it was.

    I think he's technically a good player & he is quick when he gets in to a sprint but the problem is he seems to have no agility & has little acceleration.

    The comparison with Digby someone's posted above is the perfect one.

    I've no problem with the club taking a punt on Cole Kpekawa. It's having him as the only cover for our papier mâché left-back that I take issue with.

    not quick enough thinker and slow reactions making him look poor atm. Not telling me Williams couldnt have been as good or better! Wish he was still here but cest la vie. However that been said, I personally think Williams may have struggled with his pace in this league but we'll never know now.

    He's supposed to be a centre half. Don't have a clue why we're playing him at left back because he's absolutely woeful. Surely there's better in the reserves who naturally plays there.

    If not id be tempted to go 3 at the back until white is back. Not that I like that formation but him being at left back is an absolute nightmare.

    I would like us to go three at back with a couple of wing backs.

    Bring Jackson in at centre half and play Yiadom and Kpekawa in at wing back.

    The only thing about going five in midfield is us not having the numbers in there. Hopefully Hourihane is fit and Morsy can play next to him. I'd like to see how Bree does in his natural position and have him maybe sitting

    James Bree is a right back.

    He hasn't played in midfield for years.

    Anyone think Kpekawa is similar to Kevin Austin?
