Not me.Teams clearly target Yuri as the weak link physically, but he is putting his body on the line.
On 2nd viewing Sow may even have had a red.
Defensively we were superb, including Yates and Watson in that. Ribeiro was superb, really showed how to defend the back post, walked away when getting kicked in the nuts. I think he is our most underrated player. Good going both ways. Seems to be the victim of alot of nastiness, often unpunished- Livermore WBA for instance.
Our discipline is looking good at present.
terrific back post defending against physical forwards
terrific free transfer signing, who will only get better
I think you are right or they think Robinson is still at the back post.....
100% not a weak link though, scouts have it horribly wrong, defensively we don't have a weak link. Even playing sh1t, we managed to win. Cash and Ribeiro best full back pairing in Championship by a mile.
it makes such a change this season that the full backs actually make effort to block crosses. Both of cash and Ribeiro are dogged at pressurising crossers which tends to mean high crosses that Worrall and Figs deal with rather than whipped low crosses
Yes, so good to see. It seemed like it was a forgotten art. Seems like Sabri is a details guy so I expect the importance of things like this has been stressed to the players.
