Think ward has played well this season so far against testing opposition although think he’s lacking pace but still been good would like to see clyne more

Everyone has their own opinion but the guy is not Premiership quality going forward and hasn't been for a few seasons now.

He is very basic in his attacking play and takes to long to make decisions going forward.

Don't waste your time with jealousy. Sometimes your ahead, sometimes your behind, the race is long. But in the end it's only with yourself!!

This.
As for Clyne, he hasn't impressed me since sufficiently his return to replace Ward and Ward's attacking play is improving. I sense that he is responding well to PV's faith in him.

I'm still hoping we get to see Ferguson before too long because we need to know whether he is the long term answer at RB or whether we need to bring someone else in in the summer.

Heaven forbid a defender's main qualities being defending...

As much as I love Joel, we do need to upgrade in the not to distant future. He isn’t technically good enough for quick accurate passing, and he’s a very good attacking fullback.

But the guy is solid and dependable.

I guess this thread was aimed at the crosses he has started to put in. It feels like the guy has figured out his limitations, i.e. he isn’t going to bomb past a player and get to the by-line, so he has started to cross when the opportunity arises from a much deeper position.

I can imagine he’s gone away and worked on this part of his game, and its starting to show.

I think Joel has responded really well to the challenge of playing a different style of football. And at a time when our opening fixtures have been against top teams.

If he can maintain the start he has made, I would be more than happy.
