AppyDAZE Posted December 17, 2016 Report Share Posted December 17, 2016 LJ has, on many occasions voiced his view that he sees Joe Bryan as a long-term quality left-back... sorry Lee, I back you on most things but no way is Joey going to make it as a defender Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slack Bladder Posted December 17, 2016 Report Share Posted December 17, 2016 Agreed, wasted at full back. Square peg in a round hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AppyDAZE Posted December 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2016 Yeah, me too. In the 1st half for about 20 minutes AND going forward. He's not a defender ... let's be fair, they were running riot down the right flank all game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welcome To The Jungle Posted December 17, 2016 Report Share Posted December 17, 2016 The problem is that whenever Bryan plays left back we get a thread on here about how he isn't a full back, is dodgy defending and should be played on the wing... A week later however he plays on the wing and we get a thread on here about how he is one dimensional in attack, irregular crossing and should be played at full back. He is 23 years old and no one knows, including LJ (who may say that he thinks Joe is a left back but still plays him on the wing) and probably Bryan himself, what his best position is. For me we have to revert to 3-5-2 to get the best out of Joe again. It is that or suffer him at left back to allow him to settle there and improve (I'm sure he will) without him playing left wing every other game.

pnefcok Posted December 18, 2016 Report Share Posted December 18, 2016 Seems daft that you gave us Cunningham for free and are now playing a lad who's far more effective further forward at left back. Surely this position is one you will be looking at in January? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoldenBall Posted December 18, 2016 Report Share Posted December 18, 2016 Can't play left back, can't play left midfield.. His best form in his career was as a LWB in a 3 at the back formation.. hmm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazelboy Posted December 18, 2016 Report Share Posted December 18, 2016 If joe Bryan wasn't from bristol he'd be singled out alot more. Another pathetic performance. How he's ahead of golbourne is anyone's guess! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He signed a new 3 year deal with us a couple of months ago. If there's a better left back in this division I'm yet to see him to be honest.

We always have a habit of having good players and either making them mediocre or releasing them to go and be amazing elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
