Zac Mills impressed me again today . He seems to be really taking to a run in the team . Always wanting the ball , generally good distribution and has the ability to take a man on and beat him . Just need a similar left back now .

I think our left back is OK - just seems to be a bit of a scapegoat.

I'm not scapegoating him . Just don't think he's that good . Honest opinion. Not faulting his effort or professionalism.

I am not sure what position Zak was playing today as he like the other 3 at the back went missing on a number of occasions, look at their first. I don't blame him or Danny Andrew TBH but if you go 4 - 3 - 3 you cannot expect the full backs to bomb on which is something both of ours are good at without at times getting caught out.

Their third goal has made me feel rather ill.
Omar must be p*ssed knowing he's working his bollox off for nothing in return. Macca started off the season well and now it's just becoming embarrassing.... make way for Henderson?

Totally agree - if he's good enough for Man U and England Under 20s, he surely should be League 2 standard or better (remember Joe Hart at Shrewsbury at his age at this level?), because I'm not convinced that McKeown is. Good shot stopper? Yes, but so he should be. Positional sense? OK. Convincing under crosses? No. Distribution? Poor.

A list that omits all of the prerequisites of what makes a good full back. The game is about defending too, especially at full back. I'm not saying that Zak can't do any of the list below, I'm just saying what sort of game do some people see or understand?.

How about reading the game, communication, sharp in the tackle, marking, heading ability, bravery, spacial awareness, work rate, covering the centre halves well and keeping the shape of the defence and team. All  attributes that go towards keeping a clean sheet.

Fair points bigdog. I'd say he has good work rate , good in the air , not scared to tackle hard to add to the points I made . Maybe covering centre halves etc will come in time considering the jump from conf north standard just as tombola seems to be improving

Why was Maccas starting position there when the corner taker is swinging it in with his left foot. Time for a couple of games rest I think, and Gowling failing again schoolboy style for the first
