2017/18 Squad Thread

In the youth team was he not a midfielder though? I know we've used him in those two positions pretty much exclusively, but he isn't a left back and he's only a serviceable right back.

Depending on how Ernie see's it, we may only have 4 fullbacks come start of the season if he doesn't put Cowburn into those positions and we move on Alessi

Also, don't think anyone talked about him, but did that Pat Langois bloke play alright in the two pre-season games he played?

And Jamie Carragher was a striker at youth level. Sorry, but he's played 46 of his 47 appearances at fullback. Even for the Olyroos (or whoever it was he went away with) he played fullback. He has to considered a fullback despite what he played in the youth (which I think you're correct in saying he was a midfielder).

You're right, Ernie might have other ideas for him - we will have to wait and see. I agree he was limited as a left back offensively because he kept cutting in.

As for Langlois - not seen any of the pre-seaosn games this year unfortunately but he's getting some time alongside NTS which can't be bad for his development. Hopefully one for the future because it would be good for the Emerging Jets and Youth team to start supplying more to teh first team.
