Oh but how we need such a bouncer! Cannot deny he's otherwise a poor defender, though I wonder to what extent he adds defensively by preventing teams (and especially opposing full-backs) from pushing on as high as they'd like. My hope is that Vini moves on this January and a new young right forward is signed. But with Wilson consistently showing he's better played in the pocket, I believe Adama's the best option we have out there until Nelson comes back and Iwobi shifts over. -- SW6.doc

Godo or King for me on the left, Iwobi on the right. I know it was Watford but thought they both looked good against Watford. Scousers play young uns, why dont we. (NT) -- al, Thursday, January 16, 04:51:17pm (NoHost/193.17.86.250)
- Forgot about King. Can he play wide? Godo, to me, looked only a shade of King in the couple moments we've seen him. The other option, of course, is ESR who has played left with success before, though I think we ask too much of our wingers effort-wise for him (NT) -- eganonoa (eganonoa), Thursday, January 16, 05:31:08pm (pool-108-18-149-21.washdc.fios.verizon.net/108.18.149.21)
  - Has certainly played wide the 3 times he came on. Almost got us the equalizier at Spam when cutting in from the left played the bakk across that Lukic missed and Adoma blasted over. (NT) -- Al, Thursday, January 16, 05:37:25pm (NoHost/193.17.86.250)
    - I don't think that's correct. My impression was that he was played centrally every time. Just looked at the heat maps and they seem to confirm that. (NT) -- eganonoa, Thursday, January 16, 06:57:15pm (pool-108-18-149-21.washdc.fios.verizon.net/108.18.149.21)
      - Yes he took smith roses position. Godo is a winger. (NT) -- Hg, Thursday, January 16, 09:27:54pm (cpc141402-brnt4-2-0-cust971.4-2.cable.virginm.net/86.9.199.204)
