    Dummett

    He ain't the long term answer but we need him back ASAP. If he's still a few weeks away id get Mbemba back in at LB into our championship winning team that had little investment from the FCB in the summer. Lets hope hes gone in the coming weeks as if he couldn't be arsed to invest in the summer he'll not do it in January.

    Rafa had money
    He decided to spunk 12 million on Murphy a player we didn't really need and not protatise a left back
    A player we are desperate for

    For those that go to games you would have noted both their goals came from Gedling side
    The 3rd was a cluster phi know from the while back 4
    But yet again time and time again players breezed past shelvey

    Yet another manager who picked rafas side apart

    As I said on another thread he clearly needed another winger due to Aarons injury record. If he hadnt and Ritchie/Atsu got injured he wouldnt have cover. He tried to get rid of Haidara but he wouldn't go. He is another injury prone player not bought by Rafa but is stuck with. Dont forget Colback wouldn't leave the NE either £40k a week also he has played LB. So he was left to cover with square pegs in round holes.

    Don't think you're wrong Bob, he's not a long term answer but he is needed now.

    He's back in training now so shouldn't be long.

    as he let hairdara go after dummet we didnt have arecognised left back

    Thing with Dummett is he is a defender first. Yedlin is an attacking full back first so if need be we can go to a back 3 whilst hes up field we can. Going forward Dummett ain't great but he certainly puts a shift in and does the defending side pretty well. He has been missed.
