Really really weirdAnge used to sub both off around 70mins.... Doesn't even do that anymore.
I hope we haven’t reached the point of using team selection to make a point to the upstairs people.
Conte and Jose both did that all the time.

A big factor in that we were as good as we were with Poch was that he always rotated the FBs in the early years. So we always had fresh legs on the flanks.Yup.
Even Poch used to rotate his full backs. I can’t pretend to understand Ange or the club when it comes to our fullbacks
Is he significantly worse at LB than RB? Just trying to work out how annoyed I should be at the Udogie injury.
Guess we are about to find out.Is he significantly worse at LB than RB? Just trying to work out how annoyed I should be at the Udogie injury.
He's a right back. He'll do his best but he's a bloody good attacking RB. The UDog injury is brutally predictable and could have been avoided if Spence had been allowed to help his teammatesIs he significantly worse at LB than RB?

If Udogie is out, do you trust Ange to keep playing Spence?He's a right back. He'll do his best but he's a bloody good attacking RB. The UDog injury is brutally predictable and could have been avoided if Spence had been allowed to help his teammates
He has zero choice now which is a shame because he is a better RB.
I want to see him play on the right flank next to Brennan. They had a well functioning partnership in the Championship while at Forest so it would be interesting to see if it can be replicated here and make Brennan a more active player in the buildup.Fantastic. Looks a huge offensive threat and it’s hard to fathom he’ll be worse defensively than Porro with that level of recovery pace.
We MUST see more of him.
For the time being, that seems to be really dependant on Udogie staying fit.I want to see him play on the right flank next to Brennan.

Yeah. We need to get another left back (and a left sided cb imo). But I think that it may also hinge on if Ange will finally allow Archie to play in midfield rather than as a swiss army knife defender.For the time being, that seems to be really dependant on Udogie staying fit.
The club just has no excuse not to get a backup LB this January.
