At the risk of being ridiculed, and from a distance, I was shocked that Luke was not in the team yesterday. I wonder what the season has in store for him. I admire this player immensely for his outstanding leadership. He has played a great part in the renaissance of the club. I hope he is not going to be a bit part player. Not injured is he? Or are the lads who played centre back better? If so, they must be pretty good.

In the words of JS we are looking to improve in each transfer window, so it might be that Waterfall has become a squad player from being a regular. Incidentally there was some rumour that he may be going to Chesterfield a few weeks ago.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

Yes.

Improvement brings casualties.

If you have three centre backs to pick from with injuries suspension loss of form and rotation it is unlikely any will get less then 20 games in a season and I don’t think that makes any bit part players

Love him. Missed him at corners. But Rodgers is quite a player.

Waterfall will be Mr Dependable but I suspect his days of starting games at present are gone, that said, injuries and suspensions will Mount up so I can’t see him not featuring still…personally I’d start him over Maher but that’s never happening.

If we are going to get anywhere near the top 7 this year it will be done by utilising the full squad. Having a greater strength in depth would be a fundamental part of our transfer strategy I imagine. It's certainly a positive that if one of the current two CB's gets injured or loses form, we can bring someone like Waterfall in. Our squad, when you take out the young 'uns, is pretty small so I would think there will enough game time to keep most of them happy.

Why would you play a very right footed centre back on the left?

Centre half is probably the most combative position on the pitch. It is inevitable that we will get injuries during the season and Luke will get his chance to start. Once that happens, if he’s playing well and we’re winning / keeping clean sheets, he’ll keep his place. He’s been written-off before and come back stronger than ever. I still think he has an important roll to play over the course of a 46 match season.

Is Luke Waterfall a very good cb for league 2 ? Yes.
Is he better than the 2 lads that started on Saturday? No.
Could we rely on him if one of those is injured etc? Yes.
