Match Ratings vs. Crewe Alexandra

I suspect he's one of those players who only wants to play in his specialist position
Those days are gone in the modern game - apart from the keepers everyone has to put the team first and do their best wherever they're asked to play

Yes and no. I'd agree that players in the modern game need to be more flexible and willing to expand the range of positions they can play, and Jarvis may be making the first tentative steps towards becoming a proper wingback, but managers who try to drop square pegs into round holes will end up failing as much today as they would have done in any other era. You've got to be realistic about what a player can and cannot do.

Well this should be put at the door at the bloke who cleared off then, we play a wing back system so why sign a winger ?

We have messed up on a number of players and totally agree on Grant/Gordon both were awful today we are also missing Sam Austin a man who also got slaughtered but I’d play him over those two if fit without doubt.
