Hear me out, this guy seems to be not a fans favourite, however he always puts a shift in, good temperament, defensive, aggresive in the tackle. Thought he was really good coming on tonight in a game ruined by poor officals an further injuries to our backline. I think LB could be the guys best position. He's left footed for a start an with only 33 year old (injured) Enda Stevens our only left footed defender on the books. Time to give him a run?

I see there’s still some Monkey Dust going round Stoke. |

Was about to write something similar. He’s definitely a better left back than centre mid.

I can almost see your logic as he was fine when he came on but imagine for 90 mins? Shudder |

I actually agree.
Put Tch at right back because Hoover is useless as a full back on either side.
My fucking kitchen sive would of done better than him tonight.

Thommo is only a squad filler/sub at best.
Extremely painful but needs must…
McNally and Burger at CB. Hoever RB. Junior LB
Shocking that it looks like it will come to us using one of our most technically gifted midfielders in defence but that’s where we are until Jan.

I've given him a lot of stick over the years but he looked very comfortable at LB tonight.

I wondered during the match today, if I applied the same amount of contact to a strange, on the back or at the side, while shopping in the street that happens during a match, how many would fall down like they do on the pitch? Footballers nowadays are plain lazy. Not good enough to take someone on, so just fall over. |

I swear he joined us as a wide player before being shifted to centre mid? I don’t think I’d be against giving this a go if injuries mean Junior needs to shift from left back.

Jordan Thompson, left back or not, is the least of our problems

He’d probably do you a job there, but not sure it’d be much more than that. Wouldn’t be totally shocked to see him there on Saturday.

He’s played 3 games at left back for us.
He’s a better left back than he is a midfielder…but that isn’t saying much

Judging by the way Rose limped in prior to the game I very much doubt that mate Also Campbell told us he’s out for another 4 weeks |

JT , Junior , Burger look an upgrade on Hoever and Laurent because Hoever and Laurent lack fight / grit / character
Plus Junior and Burger can play a bit .
AN has to stop picking his favourites and go for some character / DNA , because through injuries and unbalanced recruitment , he is going to be winging it and winging it and half hearted/ half assed players like Hoever and Laurent is not a good combination .

Defended well.
But why is he so scared of passing the ball forward?
Even in a position where it’s the best ball most times, he just didn’t want to do it. It’s very strange.
Fair play though, he defended very well and put in a more than solid performance.
