Still 2.5 million mate for an OAP -

Still 2.5 million mate for an OAP -

Yeah I'd misread your post Joey, apologies.

 

[Papa Shango]

Since 2007

Baines - £6mill
Coleman - £60k
Digne - £25mill
Patterson - £15mill
Myko - £15mill

So for 16 years we've spend technically around £31mill on fullbacks (Patterson and Myko were from selling Digne).

It's arguably the most underfunded area of the pitch for close to 2 decades

Oviedo would be in there.

Other than that we have tried to bring through youngsters (Galloway, Nkounkou, Kenny, Robinson, Garbutt) or had a mad revolving door or weird loanees or freebies (Sidibe, Martina, Jacobsen, Vinegre etc).

Full back really shouldn't be that hard to fill to a competent enough level.

His best game by FAR this season. Well done Ashley keep it up.

…Jonny Evans violently brings Grealish down on the edge of the United box in the Manchester Derby and receives no booking. Certainly worst than the Young challenge that saw him sent off.

Has Jimmy Martin’s job been taken? Asking for a friend

 

[GoldenToffee]

I say Ashley!

 

[maccavennie]

Thought Redmond caused him a few problems and was happy to see him moved to rw.

Well done him though getting into the box and attacking the cross, great finish that.

Keeps his place for Brighton IMO.

Dyche won't drop him after that.

We need the skipper back fit.

 

[lieneverton]

If only for the purposes of the short term, hopefully that goal gives him some confidence and he can move on from his appalling Anfield performance.

Maybe he is better used as cover for Harrison at right wing, especially with Coleman coming back soon

 

[Charlie Sweet]

Lovely performance

Cover for full back and wing.

Cant believe Patterson was dropped for him.

Cant believe Patterson was dropped for him.

His performances have been better when he’s played right wing, in my opinion

 

[Marius57]

Lovely performance

Second half yes.

First half half he had two abysmal moments. That attempt to bring the ball down that bounced 10 yards off him on the edge of the box straight to two Burnley players.

And when their player made that long run and Young sprinted off his man who then received the ball free in the box after the pass was played through his legs.

Looked much more accomplished second half, certainly when he was moved further forward.
