The issue is this for me. He has received criticism as he seems to be 'at fault', fully or partially for quite a number of goals conceded. Hes playing out of position and doing his best, no doubt, but he has really been hung out to dry by our recruitment. McCarthy, Shepherd. Lopata have all been recruited to fill that gap by our talent spotters and they have all fallen short of the required standard. So Williams is asked to step in.
However, its plain as the nose on your face that his position is being targeted by the opposition as an area that can be exploited to gain an advantage. Consequently we are conceding too many preventable goals, especially early in the game, its happening too often. I think fans are entitled to point this out in a fair and constructive, non abusive manner.
In an attempt to address this problem, weve signed Earl and Pines. Its too early to make judgement on how successful that recruitment will be but the sooner we get Williams at right back and we stiffen the central 3 the better we will be.
