This but would rather Bidwell over Dasilva

Think Bidwell is a great option to bring on if struggling to defend but think Jay is better as a typical wingback.

surely at some point MVE needs a rest else he'll get injured?

I sometimes look at the billiard table pitches they play on today, and think what the great dribbling players would have made of it.
Could just see Hutch and Bestie with the ball at their feet, they could keep it all day if they wanted.
We also had players who could use two feet.

Of course, I agree entirely. The "younger" fans are maybe a little myopic.
We saw both eras & are therefore well placed to assess.

If your playing with wingbacks you could play Tats or Eccles there

Joint top 1st game of the season.

How? We lost

How? We lost

We had a early kick off and was drawing I’d assume

could we not take the hit and start a RB from the academy? at least they'd know the position well

Think both Eccles and Saka have played the role before for us. Not sure on the academy but the gulf is huge.

Think Eccles started as RWB as well but someone will correct me I’m sure

Everyone was joint top until the goals started going in

Only in the first half

Love to see Simms and Basette start
