Doomcaster 10 Posted October 5, 2020 Done really well - passing at last from our CB's was progressive & perfick - leadership on the pitch looks very good Not sure why he has not had any match time before now? A class above Zimmerman for sure - just hope Gibson can help Zimm improve as a C/B Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex Moss 2,167 Posted October 5, 2020 If that’s his first game in god knows how long, 1 or 2 years?, can’t wait to see what he’s like once he’s got a few more appearances for us under his belt. He’s going to be huge for us this season. Looks a complete CB to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NFN FC 1,142 Posted October 5, 2020 Yep, I was well impressed. Should solidify our leaky defence. Plus Skipp does a job breaking up the play. I think we are on to something here. Just need the attack to start firing and we might get some more points! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hogesar 10,949 Posted October 5, 2020 It's pretty hard to tell as our defence were under zero pressure for 98% of the match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zimbo is a class act - as shown every time he gets a run in the team. Makes the odd mistake, but they all do. If they stay fit, should be the best pairing in the division. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cambridgeshire canary 7,932 Posted October 5, 2020 Given how hes not kicked a ball in two years fair to say he did well. Not going to judge off of one game though- Duda looked class against Bournmouth and well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed, my feeling too, Lakey. We looked defensively at our best last season when we played, dare I say it, Zimbo and Grant together. A real shame we got those injuries to them basically on the eve of post lockdown. Not knocking Ben as he’s going to have a great career, but there was so much more composure at the back when we had the Zimbo/Hanley pairing, it was pleasing to see. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
