What's the obsession with Lati? (7 Viewers)
- Thread starter Nick
- Start date
People use this phrase as something of an insult, but a player who fits that description is clearly very useful to a team with a small squad like ours.
Unless you’re going to spend money on two new players to replace him, he’s going to see a lot of minutes.

Answering the thread title, seems to me the obsession is with finding someone to criticise.
I watched the game pretty closely and what I saw was him starting at RB doing a decent job, moved to the middle of a back three when we were pinned back and continued doing a decent job, then got subbed when we needed to chase the game.
First goal was down the left, he wasn't on Maguire for the second, then played a part in the third along with MVE waving his arms in the air instead of trying to tackle a player six inches from him! We weren't 3-0 down because of Joel Latibeaudiere.

It’s cos he runs like he’s shit himself.
He’s a solid player who clearly is an influence in the dressing room and can fill in several places and is only young. No reason for the weird witch hunt against him.
You’re actually allowed to like all of our players believe it or not.

JDS came back with a good performance and im sure lati will too. Important not to get on his back. Think he needs time out of the team like da Silva did but it's hard to do when we don't have right wing options.

If Tavares is injured, what else can you do? Unless you play 5 at the back with Thomas, Binks and Kitching as we did against Wednesday.
We’ve ran out of squad again - the league campaign and cup fixtures have taken their toll. We need the summer to come around again to get new players in.
It’s going to take a monumental effort to get 4 wins from 4 to keep the play off dream alive.

Telfer played full back 99% of the time.

I also watched him carefully and he is clumsy with poor control and lost the ball a few times in bad positions.
Maybe he can develop, and he does have some ‘presence’ but he definitely shouldn’t be a regular first 11 pick at this point.

Doesn't this describe the whole team in the first half? That's what I don't get.
Latibeaudiere seems to be getting drilled for mistakes others make without it getting mentioned.

He didn’t and he was signed as a wide forward player

I mean he is definitely in the cross hairs but he does bad things in dangerous positions. The burden of being a defender.

I mean he did. But I’m not giving you an argument to wank over.
