Positional Polls II - Right full or wing back

Post by The Subhuman »

Not a lot of options defensively atm but we can go through those fairly quickly

Right full back really only has two options with Drameh headed to Luton

The September 11 and subs

GK - Ilan Meslier - No vote, here as no current competition
RB - Luke Ayling - Neck and Neck with Kristensen but wins out in the end
LB - Leo Hjelde - Just holds off Junior Firpo as the wing back polls prove the hardest decisions
DMF - Tyler Adams - No real competition here either, he's made the position his own atm -
RCB - Robin Koch - Comfortable win
LCB - Pascal Struijk - Comfortable win in the poll
RMF - Luis Sinisterra - easy win
CMF - Marc Roca - No contest in the poll
#09 - Patrick Bamford - ditto
#10 - Brenden Aaronon - ditto
LMF - Jack Harrison - ditto

A little tough, but Kristensen just hasn't clicked. Plus, on my only trip to Elland Road I saw Ayling score a wonder goal vs. Huddersfield. :-)

If Drameh was an option , him over either of these two .Went for Rasmus as I think Ayling is a bit past it now, not really good options though in reality . Rasmus did show promise early in though didn't he ?

Much of a muchness these two, slightly favour Rasmus but it’s a fag paper between them for me.

Tough call!

However, Ayling is our more in-form, effective RB right now.

As things stand with our precarious position in the league i think i would opt for Ayling. Not much between them but Aylings experience gets him the nod for now.

Luke Ayling still has that experience, but, Rasmus really needs to up his game from now on if he wants to succeed.

I'm picking Ayling as the established club member right now. But I wouldn't renew his contract. Hoping Rasmus can get a good run in the last 10 games and establish himself. Drameh to come back as alternative next season.

Right now it's Ayling for me. He offer more going forward. But they are both prone to being out of position and leaving the back post wide open.

Went with Ayling as he's the player in form and I haven't been overly impressed with Rasmus so far. Flashes here and there, but a lack of consistency. I think it might have been the OP who suggested him as a RCB and I think that could work.

Went for Kristensen because it has to work.

Ayling defensively is a bomb scare anyway.

So I'd put faith in Kristensen who I still think under a different system which is less ridiculous in terms of exposing full backs he could be decent

Had he stayed at the club Cody Drameh would have been my vote here

Must admit, think I’d be leaning towards Drameh.

So the FBs were never exposed under the previous ' system '? Remember all the frequent moans about Alioski not tracking back ?

I never mentioned Bielsa . . . . .

Where have I defended Bielsa?

I really wish people like you and others would stop using one to defend the other.

They can both have been crap at times . . . . .

It's just that you make it sound as though it's the first time this has happened in recent seasons. Use a pressing style, and there's always the risk that your FBs will get caught high and out of position- it happens to Liverpool. This means that you need the right kind of FB to play a pressing game - which we tend not to have. Yet you make it sound like it's all down to Jesse's ' system ' even though he now seems to be going 4-3-3 for the foreseeable future.

Seems madness that we bought him because he is used to this system.
