[Albion] Jack Hinshelwood- vital cog in the machine?

[Uh_huh_him]

The average punter won't have noticed this, Dunk was getting caught out of position, very little support from Minteh. How come Minteh was given so long when we needed some quality, March could have been brought on much earlier, I don't think Fab rates March, it always appears to be a last throw of the dice when he puts him on. Hinsh will be fine.

March can only handle a max of 30 minutes at the moment. The club are closely managing his minutes

Fab said as much in a recent presser

FH said that Solly isn't fit enough to play any more than 30/35 minutes this season, and indicated that a good pre-season will enable him to start next season.

Ayari helped him a lot yesterday - he didn’t really get a tackle in and needed help! When Minteh went off the right side seemed even more exposed. Clearly not a right back, we need a fit Veltman. What is the news on his return date?

 

[aolstudios]

To be fair we did sign someone to play at RB, but he's played 6 games total and been out injured since the start of November.

Ferdi's a left back.
Who can fill in on the right

Reckon he’d fill in at RB a lot more naturally than Jack though

When fit, I'd assume so

Ferdi is a left back because that's where he was needed.

He broke through at NEC as a central midfielder and has played pretty much every position except GK, CB and striker.

He's naturally right footed and can play as an inverted wingback or traditional wingback on that side comfortably.

He's said he's a left back, who can fill in elsewhere

Ferdi I feel has been a big miss and we don’t even know it !

Gone backwards under Fabian. Right back experiment needs to end. Hopefully lamptey is released and we spend big on a right back. Veltman as the back up.

 

[jackalbion]

If it allows Hinsh to push into midfield, I'm all behind starting Tasker at RB Saturday.

Only because recruiting a right back seems to be the recruitment teams kryptonite.

Lamptey and Veltman are both injured to much to be relied on, Ferdi versatile but injured all season. Lamptey should have been moved on last summer at least and another reliable body in.

Experiment? You do realise that all of the real RB's are injured, don't you?

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

I’d rather we’d paid to break Offiahs loan

Well, exactly

This. Give Tasker a go.
Need to strengthen the midfield more

A lot of pressure on the boy but would be certanly be interesting

I think we just need to release Jack, otherwise Wieffer?
He’s come on and played there.

He's played well there when fit. Also replaced Baleba & been excellent several times

 

[sussex_guy2k2]

Not sure that got all that much to do with it. He looked like a robot last week as well. Heavy, stiff legs desperately trying to keep track of some pacy winger. Imo, he has played too much football this season.

He’s also being asked to play this inverted full back/wing back role… and the guy in front of him keeps switching, so he’s probably not sure whether he’s reverting to a 5 at the back when we defend or staying in the four.

He probably is knackered, but he’s probably just confused about what he’s supposed to be doing.

At least when Veltman plays you know he’s not going to move from that spot because he simply can’t do it. But when we put Hinsh there or Lamptey, they’re asked to do so much more offensively.
