Phileas Fogg Posted August 9, 2021 Report Share Posted August 9, 2021 I've always felt he doesn't have quite the right body type or agility for RB. He's always felt like a CB "doing a job" as a RB (ala Bailey Wright) rather than a specialist. He's improved an awful lot since he first broke through though and always good to see an Academy player getting games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kibs Posted August 9, 2021 Report Share Posted August 9, 2021 I thought he had a reasonable game - will add however that just before the equaliser, he lumped the ball straight into touch from a free kick - and I thought then “that’s really sloppy and needless, I hope it doesn’t cost us….” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the meantime, they're the best we've got and there's no prospect of an upgrade any time soon. Both were OK today, no more no less. 50% right. JD will be off as soon as we get a decent offer. He's good technically but a weakness in defence. I'm interested to see what happens with Pring.. Vyner will be a squad player for us. His versatility will come to the fore when we sign a proper right back but for now he's doing a decent job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kicked it with his left foot and reacted in pain holding his left calf or something. He was not moving too well after that for the rest of the game. I think we had run out of subs. He was very poor from that point and who knows if he'd been fit then we might have had more chance of seeing out the game. Fair enough. According to the BBC Bell came on at 88 minutes, so something seems to have gone wrong with communications. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was definitely after Bell came on because I remember thinking we can't bring on Simpson as we have used all our subs. I thought Bell was on a little longer than that, but I might have that wrong too! Oh well, am just going to try and stop thinking about this - it won't do me or City any good. Bell certainly packed a fair bit into his few minutes: chases a ball into a corner from offside position, prevents it from going out and let's them have a free kick instead, kicks the ball away and then gets booked for his trouble. Onward and upward! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes that's fair, his versatility might save him but can't see him being first choice that's for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
