Donkeeebles Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 Not with the player himself, but with Lj's comments in the press conference.He can play centre half but I heard no mention of him playing centre mid or in the number 10 role".....please LJ we have signed excellent players in the past who have been wasted....to some extent Flint and to a big extent Basso who were constantly played in position Give the lad a run in several different positions, don't restrict him to one, he may have excellent pedigree at Centre half but how do we know if he's any good at left wing unless we play him there? I think the management team have missed a trick on this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonBristolian Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 Indeed. The lack of versatility in our signings is a massive problem. Good players can play anywhere on the pitch. Ronaldo is as a good a centre-half as he is an attacking and, whilst ot many people know this, Messi's actually a top-class 'keeper. He just never gets given a chance there...

downendcity Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 Being able to play in just one position would have been a bonus for previous signings like Nicky Hunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CyderInACan Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 Pez asks him in the interview if he's looking forward to Flinty. Hopefully that means that the big man isn't going anywhere! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRISTOL86 Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 His current goal ratio for us is bloody awful as well, what a waste of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanderingred Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 Im concerned by his name. If he's on bail, does that mean he may return to be sentenced at a later date? Typical clueless Johnson not thinking it through properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swede Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 Yes I quite agree but this problem has been with City for years Forbes Philipson Masters was a tricky winger in his day. Andy May was a colossus in goal. Further back Gordon Parr & Dicky Rooks used to bang them in for fun in training And Bass Savage scored for fun.
