Can we manage without Brady?

[army88]

Taylor is a LB or CB- end of

What you don't believe he can't get up and down the left side and deliver great ball ------ you'd expect him to do it from full back but not from in front of Ward.

I think he could do it personally ------- shows our weakness in depth for me in the squad - positions.

If you are relying on Arfield like others we'll get found out .

Bigger stronger boys run over the top of him and he becomes mostly non existant -- this league doesn't allow passengers.

Arfield is the man with the PL experience- he will get the job ahead of Taylor

can we manage without Brady ?.....will see I guess - though couldn't score much less with another - could we ?

Between Arfield and Taylor the former has PL experience as you say IDWT, but as army stated Arfield has a goal in him now and then, but the drawback is he is lightweight and has no pace, I'd be disappointed if Arfield gets the nod instead of Taylor.

Brady’s injury is the worst case scenario for sure, potentially worse than the dreaded ACL. Considering we have quite a few games in the crucial period from now until the New Year, I can see Taylor and Wells being initiated into the starting lineup at some point.

And, this may be ‘off the wall’, but how about Charlie Austin making a return to Burnley in January, he ticks all the boxes as far as a proven goal scorer is concerned!!!!

I just can't see beyond Scotty as a direct replacement for Brady, and we just carry on as before. It's a bit of a blow, but we certainly weren't/aren't a one man team.

True.

But we are the poorer for his absence.

You would have to think our Canadian representative is a shoe-in.

I was a bit surprised that Scotty was close to invisible in the Leicester game when he came on.

I would have thought he would have been champing at the bit to show his stuff and prove a point.

Hope he is switched on for the next game.

Peter Brady would be a great signing,he could ghost in behind the opposition defence
