Played 5 times at RB in his career

well plenty of folks said he is a very good RB as well here so..that is a lot of money for a plain CB then. I know he is young but still.
 

The downside of James is that he does not get back and Godfrey as a result is vulnerable to a winger and
an attacking full-back.

So much has to change in the second half.
 

There's a reason Coleman has looked good so far this season because all he's asked to do at RB with James play is defend, defend defend.

Our formation requires a Coleman/Hibbert to stay safe.
 
Yeh because the people of GOT know what position someone can play more than the player himself. :drunk:
indeed then thats down to Brands. Holgate and Jarrad will be back pretty soon. So what was the point if he cant cover the RB position decent ehough?

We have 2 RB's in the squad when fit. Godfrey was signed as a CB, Carlo even said that.

Carlo Ancelotti said afterwards: “Ben was fantastic, we signed him as a centre-back, not a right-back, but he has the quality to play in that position."

 

Getting no cover is one thing, getting completely out of position on numerous occasion can’t be fault of others. It’s like he is marking our centerback instead.
No its not the fault of others its inexperience, they are his mistakes but overreacting so soon is just a bit harsh, judge him when he's settled and in his position. Give the lad a chance and let's not write him off 45 minutes in to his career with us!

don’t think I said anything about writing him off. I’m saying he is terribly poor tactically as a right back.
