Kyle Naughton is a better RB than he is a LB. He's an option.

Sandro and Capoue can play football though, it's not like having Freund and Michael Brown.2 DM's at home? no thanks
Head Coach Tim said the winger (Aaron Lennon) 'has a chance' having missed the games against Southampton and West Brom after picking up a stomach strain against West Ham on December 18.
The good news sees Paulinho available again after suspension but Kyle Walker misses out after picking up a fifth yellow card of the season against West Brom. The full-back has a one-match ban.
Tim rated both Jermain Defoe (hamstring) and Mousa Dembele (ankle) as 'doubtful', while Sandro (calf), Younes Kaboul (thigh), Andros Townsend (hamstring) and Jan Vertonghen (ankle) remain sidelined.
Unfortunately that's just like saying that losing 5-1 is better than losing 5-0. Naughton proved that he is Championship material at best.Kyle Naughton is a better RB than he is a LB. He's an option.

Naughton could do a reasonable stint at RB, but give Fredericks a go. I'm in the '4th has gone, we can enjoy the Lge now' camp (This camp may only have one member, but it's a happy place to be
To me it's mainly about the FA Cup and EL now. We won't go down, I still want us to win every game of course, but I think where players like Fredericks and Bentaleb have shown promise, then in the Lge in certain games they are a gamble worth taking.
I think Vlad needs a rest, he's a liability ATM, let him recover somewhat for the Woolwich game, give 'Velcro' a chance or play Cap if necessary. I severely doubt that the youngster will be worse than Vlad or Cap at CB, so I say, if Tim's seen enough of him to think he's worth a gamble, a la Bentaleb, then go for it.
Lloris
Fredericks Dawson Chiriches Rose
Paulinho Bentaleb
Lamela-----------------Eriksen
Adebayor Soldado
Yep, I claim it as my idea. TBH, there is no way I can spell his name. If he starts playing regularly I will try to learn it, but I hope 'Velcro' sticks ...Is this "Velcro" people are referring to Veljkovic? Excellent nick-name if the ball sticks to his feet

I think playing an actual defender goes against Timmeh's philosophy, we need to fit in all our midfielders after all.Where is Ramsey?
Hope you're right. Since Walker will be missing he is a shoe in to start so i guess there's no reason for more knee jerking nowNot quite that bad Johnny. He's decent cover at RB.. Thanks to AVB letting BAE go he was forced to play out of position and that's how everyone judges him..
