KEEP HUNTER AT RIGHT BACK

I don't think it,s a coincidence that since Moss has been dropped to the bench and Hunter given the right back position, the team is looking more solid in defence. Moss has looked very poor in the games i have seen this season, so all credit to SM in taking a gamble with Hunter. The two games he,s played in that position he has been outstanding. Long may it continue.

but fair play to Hunter, i can see him being a permanent fixture in that role all season



Ive harped on about this in previous thread's with Calamity Moss, it's not coincidence.

Agree 100% I missed the Rotherham game, but yesterday we looked much more secure at the back. Moss has been singularly unimpressive. We should stick with this new combination which works

It'll be interesting to see if Sammy goes with Stanley or Hunter to replace Panther.

I've said for ages that Drummy and Stanners cant play together, it was proved yesterday that when Manny went off we lost mid-field. As you say Hunter to cover Manny leaving right back for??? Moss or McStay or Parish

Moss seems out of form

McStay seems out of favour

Parish seems out of form and favour

I don't know that it is - presuming that the player comes in directly to replace the defensive role that Panther plays, which is exactly the position Stanley had a mare against Burton.

FWIW, I think he'll keep Hunter on the right, and bring in Stanley, but I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't!

I would not play Stanley in the hole, he can't tackle and was woeful in this role at Burton.

It is a tough one for Sammy to sort out, he may have to change his system slightly. Hunter could do the job, but reports suggest he should be left where he is. Drummond? Does he have the legs?
