Plenty of midfield players end up at full back. Trent started in midfield. Archie Gray if Leeds, very good midfielder, starred for England under 21 at last years under 21 euros, currently playing left back for Leeds.Not sure why people are dismissing Emerson so much. He wasn't good against Wolves but largely in attack. Skipp offers no more in attack and is less agile. Also I think people underestimate the role of a fullback. The idea of playing someone completely new to the position is a massive risk. I can't see why we would experiment when we're not in great form either. I appreciate everyone has their opinions but this right back midfielder suggestion is a bit mad to be honest.
I suggested it because Emerson is not very good at controlling a ball and passing. Crossing….forget it.
Emerson agile…really. Looks really awkward when closed down. I know he does his best etc etc but he is not really up to playing full back in our system. Probably best on the right of a back 3.
