Re: CB conundrum

It does seem a good selection for CB. Let’s hope we don’t start signing loads more unproven players to replace the good ones we have. With one or two quality signings we should have the basis of a decent team at Championship level.

Re: So do you drop Muric after two massive costly howlers?

Didn’t attend today but from what I’ve seen ( and that was a shocking howler) no you do not drop him. We play better as a team with him in. If he does something similar again it needs looking at. I don’t think he will in in the next few games. We know he’s good enough for the Championship too.
