Cantiaci Canary 556 Posted September 17, 2017 Whether by fortune or a master stroke Farke has revolitionised the resilience of our side by playing Trybull and Tettey in the middle of the park and shielding the back line.What happens when either of those guys gets suspended or injured?We seem a little light in the DM position if we are now going to play 2. Perhaps this will become a priority for the January window.Thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Van wink 2,994 Posted September 17, 2017 Reed is more than adequate cover.Imo defending is as much about a mindset throughout the team as being the responsibility of certain individuals. Wouldn''t worry, my priorities would be another left back and striker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cantiaci Canary 556 Posted September 17, 2017 Yes ... you''re right about Reed.The January window will be intriguing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 1,655 Posted September 17, 2017 It was unfair on reed to have expected him to have played the lone holding role at millwall and Villa and should have played alongside tettey all along. Trybull has looked OK but reed looks a very good player Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FenwayFrank 2,425 Posted September 17, 2017 Trybull and Reed would be my choice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bill 1,788 Posted September 17, 2017 I expect Reed will return re-energised at some point. Much as Wilschutt has.Watkins was thought of to be a bit of a ''lightweaight'' and I''m sure poor old Husband was offered up as a replacement scapegoat so as to give Marti a break.I believe we have the coaching staff to rebuild them - maybe not as the six million dollar man, but as decent footballers. Too many were thrown into the mix without us really sortung out what was what, who would do what and who could do what.We are beginning to settle down. Players will be brought back in once we know what''s needed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Others seem to have the same opinion. I think Farke might be more likely to play Trybull and Reed, of potential combinations, but we do have options now which is great.

AJ 1,218 Posted September 18, 2017 [quote user="ROBFLECK"]A left back should be priority in next window![/quote]I take it you didn''t see Jamal Lewis impressing in pre-season then? As long as he continues to progress well, I certainly think we''ve got our future LB on our books already Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coq au vin 0 Posted September 18, 2017 Agreed AJ. Promising player, saw him at Cams and was excited for the season until the injury.Fingers x''d he''s back in the loop in the New Year, but it''ll take some getting up to speed. Speaking of which, any news on Louis Thompson? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pete 318 Posted September 18, 2017 What if one gets suspended, you''re joking surely Tettey two games two yellows will be suspended for Reading (A). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's Character Forming 1,156 Posted September 18, 2017 I was impressed with Trybull on Saturday and Tettey is always better than a lot of fans give him credit for IMO. I think Reed has also looked good here, so I''m not convinced in this area we have a worse squad than last season.Ditto Stiepermann did a good job at LB and I think Husband is an acceptable backup there.
