Marriage has turned you into Dave
Cuco probably said the same when he was regularly playing left back.
I have tried to forget most of that but my goodness. I don't blame him. He didn't pick himself. His agent didn't hold a gun to Everton's head when he signed either.
I always find it weird when folks moan about players' wages. Like they just signed what was offered. The fume should always be at management.
Anyway hopefully this one can be effective in the RB role. I reckon Mason could have easily slid into that cover.

Plays right back sunday carlo confirms
With Godfrey confirmed at right back, I might have to think this could be a Wally Pip scenario. Pip was the first basemen for the New York Yankees and was a star. One game he doesn’t feel well after a long night of drinking and takes the day off. His backup: Joe DiMaggio one of the greatest baseball players of all time. Pip rarely saw the field again. Clearly a different scenario with Coleman being hurt, but if Godfrey impresses I think he could stick at RB permanently.

I see some similarities with Joloen Lescott, who played a lot of his early football at left back for us (and actually kept Leighton Baines out). He also got called up to the England squad in that position, while Jagielka and Yobo formed a formidable centre back partnership.
Lescott was a bit taller but simialrly well built, came in at 23 for us and was good at defending but could also carry the ball. I always liked him at left back to be honest and the team did well there. If you are Godfrey, you just want to get yourself into a winning team first, then over time make a case to play centre back.
As for us, I think it probably helps us too, extra height at set peices and also gives James that free role ahead of him.
Am i remembering right that when Jags came to us he played mostly as a central midfilder/right back for Sheff Utd.

Interesting comparison, hope he scores a similar amount of goals.

Yes. I think Yobo and Stubbs played before that, but then Jagielka came in.

He's got a lot to his game, but not sure he will the same threat from set plays.

Glad he'll get a run of games, can't see JJK ousting him even when fit. Be good to see what he can do.
I remember Stubbs and Weir were keeping Yobo on the bench - the year he was here on loan he was our player of the year, but the year we got CL he was mostly on the bench i think.
When Jags came in remember everyone scratching their heads as i think Grav had just been sold and we looked at him as a midfielder/right back utility lad. It took a while for him to get into the team.
I think i remember one of his first games at center half, we went two up against Arsenal at the time (i think), but we were playing a high line and i think we lost 3-2 in the end. He got slatted on here - maybe even by me - the words he will never be a center half were uttered. Think even Kroldrup was knocking around then.
Could be wrong going from memory.

Really? I think there is zero chance of him starting ahead of Kenny when he’s fit. It’s all academic anyway, by the time Kenny is up to speed Coleman will be back - shame for the lad.
