Gary Monk tried to play the board last season, it doesn't work and I'm hoping he just made errors in team selection and there was nothing else in it or he's gone come July.
Berardi or shaughessy if we are in a crisis at CB? I would have said shaughessy, so top TC, but at least he’s having a look should it happen. He hardly put him in for the laugh, clearly an option if and when we are stuck.

Shaughnessy I have no problem with. We'd probably be better off with Lassoga as central defender than Beradi. He played really well as a defender but the reason we got ourselves in trouble in the first place is because he was playing as central defender. I'd never want to see him there again unless PJ, Coop, Shog, Pennington or our best youngster in the U23's are all injured.

The FA cup imo is no place to test these things out.

A crisis in other words. I don’t think anybody would like to see him at CB, but if needed he now has had a run out at CB which if needed will benefit him.
TC has shown his naivety towards the championship, now the lesser teams in the FA Cup, he’s learning, this club is clearly building for a promotion push in 2018/19 anything this season is a bonus to them. Not what fans want to hear, but I think we all realize that

I'm not unhappy he made an error in selection, just that he own it and learn from it. You cannot in the EFL take smaller teams for granted and expect to win. In a crisis as I say we could use Lassoga at CH. Beradi looked dwarfed at centre back Sunday and he'd be the last player I'd start there in a crisis bar Anita and Saiz..I rather use the 5 centre halves we have in the U23's

Can't respond to your PM you have them turned off. Apologies

Dont want to be to harsh.

But, think we can safely say he isn't a centre midfielder, game largely passes him by.

Ok as an emergency cb, may improve, has potential as a cb.

Looks totally out of his depth in midfield, not his fault he's been asked to play there. 2 games there now and he doesn't have a clue what he's doing.

The blame lies solely with TC , if he doesn't want to play Klich, then why even bother putting him on the bench.

Any reason why Conor’s correct name is not used on this header?

Not much to show for his work.

Needs to be taken as far away from cm as possible imo. Maybe he will become a decent cb, he wont ever be a decent cm.
