2022/23 Ben Godfrey

[Pat Butcher]

he's not exactly a good defender, like. That's how low the bar is.

Start him wherever an injury is

 

[hktoffee]

Play him at left back.

5-4-1 played like the game vs City. Counter-attack. Make us hard to beat first.

Pickford

Iwobi Gana Onana Gray

Calvert-Lewin

People would play this lineup and genuinely blame the forwards for not being good enough when we have 0 shots.

 

[dano195]

I really hope we go with Godfrey over Coleman at right back with Patterson out.

 

[Amokachi1995]

Seems to have lost a bit of pace.

 

[MACCA75]

Pros - aggression, pace
Cons - everything else

 

[Kylito]

Seems to have lost a bit of his natural pace since the leg break. Still think he’s quick but can’t see him being the fastest player in the squad anymore.

 

[maccavennie]

He's still brutally quick
Man marking job he's decent
but ffs the kid is abysmal with the ball at his feet which is a massive problem when your chosen profession is football.

 

[Milkman]

He has no idea how to play centre back. He's like a rugby player filling in at 7-a-side

 

[ToffeeTim]

He is one of the worst players in the league with a football at his feet. He's very very bad

 

[4737carlin]

He best games last season were on the wing anyway, id trying him in Mykos place for a game

Thought we played better and carried more threat when We had our wingers playing as wingbacks.

Agreed. Might be worth trying that in home games where we need to be more proactive. McNeil needs to do a lot more things prove he’s value for money but he defended adequately against a tricky winger and offered more going forward than Mykolenko.

 

[hashbike]

agree, we may have stumbled on something promising with Gordon and McNeil as wing backs in a 3-5-2 formation with gray and dcl / Maupay forward

Provided a bit more going forward for me.
