Famous 1874 Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Dreadful left back. Either we play him left wing or don’t play him at all.

Gav M Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Thought he looked alright in his cameo against st's. At that point we were pushing forward and looking to attack at every opportunity though, that's where he's at his best, driving forward and getting involved in the attacking play.

letsalldothebeattie Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 According to those around OT only way a deal could be done today is if a suitable offer comes in for Demi. Both want him on loan so it’s not like it’s a permanent deal for Demi. Is he likely to play more regularly for either in the Prem? I personally can’t see that being the case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boag1874 Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Hopefully true, he’s been rank rotten even when he has been used as a winger! Garruccio much better at LB and I’d rather we try give Mulraney game time as either a wing back or LW than see Demi running about contributing nothing for another 4 months.

Bainy Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Never going to make it at premier league level I dont think. How Man U could posssibly think he is a full abck I do no know.

Highly rated as a winger at United but with Martial, Rashford, Young etc in they positions & the major doubts over Luke Shaw they thought the best option was to turn Mitchell into a full back. Only started as a full back about 6 months to a year before joining us last January. Can tell this season he’s not comfortable in the position and would rather play further forward as he’s naturally a winger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jambopilms Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 He has been awful more often than not. You still need to tackle, header and keep the ball no matter what system we play. He hasn't done that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maroonlegions Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Hung out to dry at left back, simple, real shame for the boy as there is a cracking player in him.

Jodami Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 (edited) Great job by his agent to get him a move on the evidence of this season. His confidence is very low but he is very predictable and teams know what he is going to do. Not sure if it's because he's on loan but he doesn't take responsibility on the pitch and is prone to taking risks when any potential gain is outweighed by the danger of him losing the ball. On balance I would like to see more of Burns in the second half of the season. Edited January 31, 2019 by Jodami Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he lacks a bit of commitment in the tackles/defending since his injury, maybe still getting over the psychological part. Needs to bulk up a bit too. But if that's not possible, he's great in attack, so the focus should be on him doing that with little defensive duties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deans Jambo Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Demi's 1st spell with us earned him the right to be played as a left back again. He's not played as well this time round. I wonder if his confidence was dented by not being asked to stay on at Man U after going to America in pre-season with them. For those that bang on about him being played further forward, that has happened in a few games this season, from the start and when we've switched mid-game. The last I can recall from the start was as a left midfielder at Livingston (with Garuccio behind him) and again he did not deliver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
