D 1-1 vs Sutton United (H) - League Two - Sat 27th Jan, 3pm

I’m hoping @WestieJack pops along to tell us we are still after a right wing back…. :sweat_smile:

Here’s another opinion that might cause this:
(And it’s one I’ve vented on here before)

Liam Gordon is overrated. I’ll be kinder by saying I think he’s a left back… but I don’t think he’s good enough as a left wing back. His output is poor and he doesn’t ever seem to be up with play (in the same way Knowles is free in the right when we switch across).

I hope today isn’t the realisation of a fear I had before the game - that when teams work us out and cut off our threat in the middle / we are forced wide and then have a pair of wingbacks who have a grand total of 4 assists between them….

We are desperate for a right (and I think also left) wing back. We won’t get both, or neither this window - and I think that’s the reason we will have results like today. When we needed them in those pivotal moments… they’re just not good enough to put in a clinical cross or cut back.
