We need a centre forward not another defender.

Judging by the way we played Bidwell and Latabaudiere yesterday, I’d guess he’ll be more attack than defence minded?

I’m not sure what the issue with Piroe is? I thought Lowe did well in that role yesterday, but holding the ball up isn’t his game and he couldn’t use his pace. Martin knows more than me, but I’d much rather use him wider with Piroe in the middle.

I would rather two up front, out of what we currently have Lowe and Piroe/Whittaker. Cullen was too deep and needs to be in and around the box if he plays. But listening to RM he is talking about getting the defense and midfield right before moving to work on attack. Hopefully Cullen was just used deep to help with this.

I can’t see Cullen in that role for long. We all know his main asset is his finishing.

I think he’ll have a part to play this season, but I’d guess he’ll be coming on when we’re chasing a goal more than starting.

That was a large part of our issues going forward. There was a bit of a disconnect between midfield and the forward line. Lowe is getting it in the neck a bit (quelle surprise) but he didn't have a lot to work with. Paterson and Cullen I guess were supposed to provide that link, but Cullen is fundamentally the wrong kind of player for that job and Paterson couldn't do it all himself.

It's a balance thing. Once we get that right we should be fine. Would much prefer to see Piroe starting ahead of Cullen on Tue, whether that be upfront with Lowe behind or as a straight swap.

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Lowe is trying to do the Salah/ Kane / Rashford role for us.
Hope he succeeds.

Latty did well going forward as wingback and he Han't had a lot of experience there.
Nughton is a good right back
Roberts set to return
If Ethan Laird arrives he will be expected to play virtually every game.
Hmmmnnn

I don't think he will be expected to play every game.
I don't think Lati or Naughton are the right type of wing back for the systm tbh. Connor will thrive.
Laird can also play CB, for when connor returns. However, I think Connor will be gone in Januray if he stays fit, so Laird should play most of the season at RWB yes.

Laird is right sided isn't he? In which case it'll be Latibeaudiere he replaces.

He did ok in an unfamiliar role. I doubt he will challenge Roberts or Laird for that berth. He was offside quite a lot.

Naughtons best position is in the back three, but you could also play him fullback either side or in midfield. Latabaudiere is similar in that he’s versatile. I’m not sure he’s a starter with everyone fit though.

I agree.
I see Lati being a sub, with option to cover in RWB or CB at a push.
I also see Naughton challenging Cabango for the RCB berth.
Manning has got the LCB now for me.
Cooper could oust Bennett at CB, but Bennett is taking up a lot of the wage bill to be a sub.

Lattie gave a good account of himself yesterday but he looked dead on his feet after 60 minutes, so not sure he has the engine to play 90 minutes week in week out. Laird I think will take up the RWB slot until Roberts is fit, then it will be a tussle between the two for the position.

Lattie possibly dropping back into the back 3 on the right hand side with Cabango taking up the central birth.

I thought Manning was excellent on the left of defence last night.

To be honest I forgot Bidwell was playing LWB, he wasn't in the game much, that's not a dig at the boy, I just don't think we focused our attacks down that side. If Laird can play in the left maybe he will slot in there once Roberts is fit so that we can balance the attack out from either side.

We had a lot of promising position out wide yesterday, if we can improve our attacking approach in those areas we will be much more threatening. Latibeaudiere beat his man a couple of times, but did not have the confidence to capitalise.

Ethan Laird straight to RWB for me. Thought B Cooper was outstanding and also looked very comfortable on the ball, even more so than Ben Cabango. Definitely need another CH as dont think JL is one!

"Martin supposedly wants to reunite with Laird in South Wales later this month"

He was at the game last night, and would have had a medical today. Blackpool will need to stop "preparing to hijack" and get on with it I think.

Medical passed

They have reached a full agreement with United and the rising star has already passed a medical with the Welsh outfit.'
