Drag certainly gave Vicario some protection today
Good to see!

yea thats true VDV has improved a lot on the ball as the seasons gone on.Good in moments today, but can look loose on the ball. He's certainly no Romero, nor even a VDV in that regard. But he had a couple of nice carries, and from his highlights he hits a good long ball.
Defensively he's a monster though. Strong in the challenge and good in the air, which shouldn't be sniffed at considering how vulnerable we are at set pieces. The ball just seems to gravitate to his head.
Overall, looks a useful player, but with lots of room to improve in possession. Perhaps that's nerves, VDV himself seems to have improved considerably in that regard as the season has progressed.

Yeah let’s face it … Ben and royal we’re an absolute disaster when drafted inIn hindsight. We should have tried this ages ago
Getting Drag into the 11 would have added much needed height and strength and agree on Udogie but we were too wedded to the inverted ting
Yeah let’s face it … Ben and royal we’re an absolute disaster when drafted in
Seems obvious now to bring in drag and push Mickey wide
Always hard to say but might’ve made the difference to fourth
Even Romero left back would have been a better option in hindsight. Royal is an absolute shitbag of a footballerYeah let’s face it … Ben and royal we’re an absolute disaster when drafted in

Well if you want to change the system and mix it up that way then yeah another good option

This system puts so much pressure on the full backs to play, I would have even put Kulu there over those twoWell if you want to change the system and mix it up that way then yeah another good option
the current system…. Drag was decent as left center half snd Mickey turned out could play left back
I think we dropped a lot of points not realising this earlier and playing Ben then royal … both did badly
why not. He can play a bit and does have an engineThis system puts so much pressure on the full backs to play, I would have even put Kulu there over those two
No.
All we've discovered here is that we've got a great option to use in certain fixture and good depth in defence.
Udogie is a great LB in this system.
I would also push Romero up top with 15 to go if we are chasing a game to create panic - so I know f allFormation error: Your lineup must contain exactly 11 players. Please check your formation. A 'Player' is considered to be 1 name without spaces.

I think the highlight of that would’ve been watching that lump clatter into a few
Did you see the tackle he won high and wide for our goal Sunday? SolidI think if you try and convert VDV to a full time LB/WB/IB then he'll get (those wonderful long legs) physically wrecked.... As soon as you regularly expose him to oppo FBs and CMs he'll have the shit kicked out of him.
