Chairman Mao Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 A central midfielder at that. Enough is enough, he was been woeful all season. No suprise his best performances in a City shirt in the Championship came at the end of last season where he was played (by LJ) as a CM HE IS NOT A LEFT BACK. If we are going to play him there we might as well sell him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Top Robin Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 I think we can now say that he is just not good enough in any position for the championship. Thats gonna hurt because he is one of our own but truthfully he is div 1 at best.......sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One BCFC Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 Joe Bryan just isn't good enough i'm afraid. Would be useful if we go down however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low on confidence but seems whatever happens he's picked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoldenBall Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 He's part of the furniture, despite being poor week in week out he's guaranteed a place in the team, plus a shiny new contract every couple of years, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHAGa Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 Just doesn't have consistency to be a LB. Not sure what it is, technically he's good enough but just doesn't have the correct mindset for the position. A liability more often than not playing there. It's a shame because when on form (Huddersfield in particular) it showed the potential he could have in that role and the added benefit of having an attack-minded LB. Didn't LJ play Bryan at CM alongside Reid last season? It worked pretty well if I recall correctly. I also remember SOD claiming that Joe would probably end up a CM.

bearded_red Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 Thing is, he was absolutely dreadful (join the club), but I thought our only slight couple of moments of positivity were a couple of crosses he put into the box. Unfortunately the sad state of affairs that was our performance this afternoon that alone puts him above a fair few of his colleagues wearing that horrible 'gold' shirt in my view.

If it were not for the fact he is one of our own, he would get ripped apart week after week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree - the cross for Tammys post rattler was fantastic Definitely has ability - the run against Udders demonstrated that - can't work out the inconsistency but he's definitely not a 'natural' defender - his assets are when we are on the front foot and I still think he can be a very decent Left sided midfielder , (possibly centrally but he is very one sided / footed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got to look at LJ totally dissing Scott Golbourne, if you ask me. Weird SG signed just before Lee arrived Edit the one for the Brentford defensive mix up was v good too Also didnt Richard O'D sign BEFORE LJ came in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Byran along with Reid, Pack and Tomlin. So'D also rated Reid. I think the two would be a great midfield pairing in L1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor10 Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 We all know he ain't a left back but he's been so gutless and pathetic at times this season. Not good enough for this level I'm afraid. Anyone who thinks otherwise is kidding themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedReynard Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 Don't know if anyone else saw during the warm up yesterday Joe Bryan juggling with his chewing gum. Kicking it from his foot to his knee to his mouth a few times. Obviously got the skills but would like to see him apply them on the pitch. Seems when he has a bad game so does the team or maybe its when the team performs badly (losing the ball constantly) it's too much pressure on him at the back. I thought the team performance at Wigan was bad enough despite the win but yesterday there were so many mistakes all round i think it beats it by a mile. So frustrating after the Huddersfield performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
