santibello Posted January 1, 2018 Report Share Posted January 1, 2018 Watching him recently i think hes been amazing at supplying quality crosses and being a constant threat, but he lacks the positional know-how to be able to defend properly. Instead of keeping him as a fullback why dont we put him where bryan has been playing recently and bring bryan back? Then we dont open ourselves up as much and still get his quality crosses, long throws and free kicks. I remember hearing he trained as a number 10 and juventus, so this wouldn't be that weird surely?

Yes, why not. He has a good leftfoot to find his targets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phileas Fogg Posted January 1, 2018 Report Share Posted January 1, 2018 Don't think he's agile or quick enough. Looks comfortable shooting and crossing though. Never really seen him dribble at defenders to judge how he'd get on with that either. Unless you had it in mind that he'd play like a left footed Beckham! I wouldn't be surprised if he moves into defensive midfield later in his career - a bit like Hegeler. Not sure if he could play there in this country though.

pongo88 Posted January 1, 2018 Report Share Posted January 1, 2018 He can cross the ball, but he hasn’t got the same ability to beat a defender that Bryan has. He’s also a bit lacking in pace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redtiffer Posted January 1, 2018 Report Share Posted January 1, 2018 Hadnt really thought about it before but i thought he was excellent pushing forward in the first half at wolves, but a bit of a liability in defence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chairman Mao Posted January 1, 2018 Report Share Posted January 1, 2018 I hope that this is a joke. His movement in the opposition half of the pitch is limited to say the least. Sure he can put in an excellent cross but there were a number of occasions where Bryan was crying out for him to commit forward and he didn't.

Don’t you think he’s been solid there the past 3/4/5 games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redtiffer Posted January 1, 2018 Report Share Posted January 1, 2018 I thought he was heavily targeted by Wolves, and did well on the whole with others bailing him out on occasion. I think hes improved drastically recently but he does make me nervous at times! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoldenBall Posted January 2, 2018 Report Share Posted January 2, 2018 Why are we trying to shoe horn Magnússon in our team? Great guy catchy song but we have better players than him that play in his position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cidered abroad Posted January 2, 2018 Report Share Posted January 2, 2018 Because of the extensive injury list, and also maybe because we have so many young ones out on loan, we have been putting a lot of square pegs in round holes. It's been very successful but the last two matches have proved conclusively to me that against the better teams, it will not work as effectively. It has also highlighted to me, which players are only able to produce top quality wherever they play. The others will be ok for a while, but not as a long term solution in our search for a team to take us to new levels of achievement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
