Oh absolutely spit Adam was up against it from the off with that Carthorse, but I'm focusing on Bauer here, and I don't think right wing back is his natural position. H I agree with your earlier comments about Rowett. He's a chancer who is currently in the process of being found out. However I don't think he's wrong about Bauer. Last season Bauer's positional sense while defending looked flaky which is why Lambert pushed him forward in front of Johnson (himself not the best). I actually think he looked better than he is because by comparison to last season's shower (a) he was fitter and (b) he offered more genuine pace than almost anyone else - but from what I have seen of him last season and this I do not think his future lies in English football. Totally agree Seymour, which is why I don't see him as a natural wing back. H |

The mentality of Bauer must have been awful prior to the Forest game. He gets lynched for a fairly innocuous social media message (OK, the timing was bad but it's not as though he was slagging anyone off), pulled up about it by Rowett on the day, then gets a start at Forest when Rowett more or less said he wouldn't be involved because of the message.
Ideal game preparation there.

Whilst that may be true, he did himself few favours on Wednesday night. He had an absolute nightmare. True Dave but he wasn't the worst. H He was in my opinion. He had a torrid first half so much so that a 19 year old had to swap over with him and within minutes of switching over, he helped gift them the softest of soft goals. He had an absolute nightmare and was rightly subbed. He's done himself no favours at all and if anything, he's actually helped the manager because those clamouring for his return, having seen him play and probably watched him closer than normal, have realised that maybe, just maybe, the manager is correct in his judgement of the player. BMI wasn't far behind but even he was better in a full back position than Bauer had been previously. |

That's why it's all about opinions Dave, I thought BMI was fucking woeful?, Alsager Town have better centre halves! Anyway me and Dalton are off to the Ryder Cup tomorrow, hopefully our Gleneagles appearance will rub some good luck off! H |

Adam on the bench,fine. He's always been a good sub. Don’t see it, can’t forgive him for his amateur almost infantile cameos at the end of last season |

So, did we imagine how good bauer was when he came into the side last season ? I think not, the fact is he has been made the scapegoat for a poor defensive unit, and an iffy 45 minutes against forest in a defence which was all over the place doesn't change that. Convenient for the manager to be able to take him off and give him all the blame once again. Some may have seen him add pace and a willingness to get forward along with showing the right body language in looking to take throw in quick etc and because of the crap elsewhere thought he was better than he was? Dont forget Lambert shifted him out from right back as he was seen as weak defensively. Rowett has as well, as I said earlier he was viewed as a better player by not playing. |

Ideal game preparation there. Come on!!!....he's supposed to be a professional, very highly paid at that. If that's going to affect his game then he shouldn't be playing. Shit flies all of the time at football clubs, dressing rooms, training pitches and social media is the next place for it and players have to handle it, that's their job. Should be water off a duck's back, or should motivate a player to perform at a higher level. |

I also agree Bauer is better as a right-winger than a right-back, but GR is not a 4-4-2 man so that would rarely happen. I'm just putting it out there, but could Bauer play further up front supporting Afobe on the right (therefore moving Ince to the left)? We know Bauer has pace and he can utilze that more cutting inside and running opposition defences ragged.
