Nope, that was the 18th April.

Played on Saturday, again at LB. Hooked after 40 minutes when 4-1 down.

Given he was shit for us at LB, and so good for them in midfield, why they played him there...
I must admit, I posted without looking back, but I had been following his performances there. I think we can agree that he won't be Bagan's cover next season.
 
Hooked for us at HT when playing LB too.

I'm sensing a pattern here. Can't fault his consistency.

It's bonkers. "Do you tackle?" "Have you got a left foot that you actually use?" yes to both - play LB.

Very much like whoever it was trying to play Tanner at LB.
 
First game showed he's the potential to be. It would be a more clear 1/2 split than Trott/Tyrer, but I doubt Tyrer came here to sit on the bench.
Would be good if we end up with 3 pretty good keepers next season, which doesn't look implausible. Probably not sustainable longer term though
 
This could be of possible interest. Motherwell winger, SPL top scorer. Would have been at Leicester the same time as BBM.

I'd pass.

In terms of G/A, you need to remember the SPL generally is poor standard - Hearts, Celtic, Rangers aside. 1 goal, 1 assist against those three, so the overwhelming output has been against sides League One/Two standard.

IF BBM rates him, then great, but I suspect he'd want to stay in Scotland. Move to Celtic for the stat padding and European football.

It's not uncommon for youngsters to get starts at fullback when when it's clear they won't end up there. Obviously it doesn't always work out but when it does it shows they have a lot of potential. To be done really well it's a difficult position but a well rounded highly talented youngster can often do ok there.

It sounds as Mafico has a great attitude if he's bounced back and had a great season at Yeovil. He'll probably have a decent career but might be tricky for him to break through at the city in the next few seasons

But... he's done well at Academy level in midfield.

He's had BBM praise him to the hilt ("Elite 6").

He then gets played at LB and gets so exposed we had to haul him off at half time.

He has a brilliant loan, does really well - in midfield - then they put him at LB and haul him off arfter 40 and 45 minutes - having conceded 7 goals in two games in those 85 minutes.

It's just absolutely bonkers.

He and King would be candidates to replace Wintle should he go - and if he stays. in 2-3 years would be replacing him anyway.

I have to agree, it seems very counter intuitive to move a player who has excelled in midfield into LB.

It’s clear as day that he struggles defensively and any opposing manager regardless of level, will have done their research and identified his weakness in that position.

Bonkers
 
Anyone know how Nyakuhwa has got on at county?

Well yeah of course I understand the level of SPL football, I’m not an idiot. But it’s not like there hasn’t been a practical conveyer belt of players that have come from there and been successful in the Championship.
