Is that how you judge the worth of a centre back, the speed they can run with a ball?at least he carries the ball with a lot more speed from the back than Romero.
I cant remember when romero last ran with a ball for 25m
Didn’t look particularly good with the ball at his feet. Almost every pass seemed a little off.
Not sure I trust him to carry the ball upfield yet.
Got better as the game went on and, yeah, he was playing on the wrong side but his passing seemed a little off to me.Looked fine to me, the only issue he had is that he's a right footer playing on the left so at some points he struggled to play out but I think he did well considering...
If Radusin was going to start I thought it should have been instead of Romero as Luton are good aerially and physical and then we would have had both CB's on their correct side. Besides ,Romero played two games in a short space of time and a long flight back and probably only had one training session. Probably the best game to rest him.Well has he shown us any reason why he should be starting? Not that I have seen anyway. Micky is so far ahead of him
for me the problems you see are for the coaches to work though in training, that's what coaching /training is about, but I'm not sure what the coaches are doing ?. putting out cones and playing 5/6 aside isn't coaching too meI was a little worried about some of his positioning tbh, saw 3 or 4 occasions where he gave a lot of space inside and then only jogged back in situations that were very dangerous, I thought he was in no man's land for the goal but so were a few others. Some good work running it out of the back and breaking lines but then I thought he also took it too far with him actually ending up in the box but with no real purpose to him being there.
Yeah, DaviesMuch rather Davies as that LCB. Dragusin simply can't pass, he is a RCB backup. He was lucky Townsend was his opponent as he hardly tried.
whats that got to do with the price of bacon?at least he carries the ball with a lot more speed from the back than Romero.

I'm worried about this guy. Out of all our new signings this season he looks the least comfortable. is he quick enough to play high line?
We've only seen him cover for Mickey on a less natural LCB side. Looked good on the ball and has decent pace. My only real concern is his strength in the air - he's a big unit so a solid option for defensive and offensive corners.I'm worried about this guy.

He signed as third choice centre back.
Not sure why people (or he) would be expecting to play games when our two centre backs (and arguably our two best players of the entire season) are fit and available.
He'll probably start every single European and domestic cup fixture next season and he can show us what he can do. Hopefully it's better than the shitshow he put up against Fulham.
