Or RB, to think we've somehow had to play the 5th choice there tonight, incredible stuff (presuming it's 4 at the back with Akinola RB?)

Ling
Judd
Turley
Thomas
Akinola

Really confused by our coaches choices. Playing defenders all over the place, bringing in 2 players to play at rb despite having 3 already contracted.

Fair enough, I don’t agree with it but if that’s the case, as a league two team you have to settle for backups not being as good as you’d like but you make sure you invest across the whole squad rather than literally having 5 players who all play right back.

Weird. Maybe someone’s trying to overcompensate?

It is strange that that’s the one position that’s causing this issue. Any ideas why?

Source? Turley was a rock at RB when we won the title and looked good when he plays. In the style of Andrew Whing / Scott Cuthbert no-nonsense physical defender

The selection system is like the FA Cup. Players and positions on balls. Boss picks the players balls and Senda the position balls,

Next week Vigeroux will be Playing up front and Ling in goal.

I agree.

But he’s not a Ling/Embleton type of player.

That was almost two years ago.

Things have changed since then.

In all but one game this season we have a played a left foot right foot CB combo. This is clearly RE's main thinking with his CB pairing. Defensively RE is poor in terms of both team selection and organisation
