[QUOTE="Team Tanguy, post: 2552411, member: 3671"] I'd prefer if we didn't field too many non flair/non creative players at the same time. 1 or 2 are fine. But much more than that and then there's way too big a burden on Tanguy/Gio to do everything themselves. However given the fixture congestion, pre season preparation etc I can understand if we're unable to at the moment. Whilst a few guys get to top speed we'll have to make use of what's available so I won't complain right now. But for those saying that playing Reggie would only have resulted in Burnley clearing his crosses- open your minds. If Reggie dribbled past even 1 player then the cross he puts in with a man taken out of the game is much different to Ben Davies crossing against a settled couple banks of 4. It's not hard to imagine he would have made more use of the space afforded to the fullbacks. It's why he's a top attacking LB lol. But again, he won't be able to play every game so we're going to have games where we all feel he's more suited but he's on the bench or not involved. As for his performance.. he was very lucky his error didn't lead to a goal. There were 2 in fact, I can't remember the 2nd but I recall it being in the Spurs extended hls.
