Conor bradley has to be given the nod next season. He's shown enough and deserves it. Slot mentioned about continuous games helping mayve prevent his injuries. Yes, possible back up in the form of a versatile cb/ rb but i hope we do not spend 30 40 million on a right back. Trent got his chance. Now conor deserves his chance. BTW, the lads a brilliant player. With the unfair comparisons to trent, Bradley's unfairly being dimmed. Trents gone, there's various positions to strengthen and in bradley we have a very special fullback. Hears hoping the injuries are behind him.

Everyone knows Bradley is a top fullback. But he’s never fit mate. You can just see Curtis Jones already at right back 3 games into the season.
Money needs to be spent. It doesn’t have to be ridiculous amounts. But the club needs to stump up some cash for a change and back this great manager we’ve got.

We won’t buy a rb. We got Connor, and for cover we got Gomez quansah if he don’t get loaned/ sold and even Curtis.

Curtis Jones don't be silly.

That’s not really good enough for a hard season John. Surely we will at least sign a back up, a few have been mentioned on here during the past week.

I agree Bradley should be the starter as he has more than earned that right, IMO. Also, I think we will sign a reserve RB to cover for Bradley as he develops both his game and his physicality cos he is still a 21 year old who's football body is still developing.

If we don’t give Connor a chance we are crazy. He’s the best young rb in the league, potentially in Europe ( for his age) natural defender, great range of passing, athletic and tenacious. The injuries are a problem, but he’s a young lad growing into his body. I played a lot of sport in my teens and twenties. Mainly basketball and tennis. Until I was 23 I had regular niggling injuries. After that I played till 30 with whole years of no significant injuries. I don’t think that niggling injuries when you are still young means that you are an injury prone person per se. Apparently we are about to increase his weekly age by 50-60k. We aren’t doing that because we are concerned about him being a long term injury problem. My point is forget the rest, we’ve already got the best.

@Marv7, do you think Jurgen may have uttered your words when Arne first moved GravenBLOCK to a number 6 defending mid-fielder, a position we were weak in the last season of Jurgens tenure.
I think Arne may have another surprise "don't be silly" positional change this year, as his first one was'nt too bad was it! i'm going for Szoboszlai "don't be silly", slobs can't defend either like TAA, but he can do everything else that TAA did more than equally, !

I am sorry but if we have tons of money to spend as Rigsby calims why exacty should we not sign a good Right back? This signing cheap cover is such a dumb idea for me. Go and get a proper right and let both of them compete.

because you don't need RB constantly changing each game Defence is the one place you want consistency. give Mbaya a chance to compete and have Gomez as the Utility man makes so much sense to go out and buy Kerkez for the other side and have Robbo be backup.
