I'm all up for depth, but we now have Sibbick, Smith and Langer able to do that enforcer type role. And if it's Langer, Sibbick and Smith can both play RB, but Clare has kinda nailed that down. As I say, no complaint, quality depth has lack badly. Wonder if Irving may even feature a wee bit less in away games or something where we want a really strong midfield and all the creativity comes from fullbacks and front 4? You might be right. Think of another club where the creativity comes from the full backs and the front 4, with the midfield simply being strong and hard working. That club? Liverpool !

Jambo314 Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 (edited) Arrived at training just after 11am to find both Smith and Hickey doing some light training - ball work and fitness. After half an hour Hickey went back inside (blowing a tad😊) leaving Smith doing more intense training on his own with Tonge up until around midday. They then packed everything away and went inside. My guess is Smith will possibly be at least on the bench tomorrow but not so sure about Hickey, maybe another week or so to get his fitness level back up to scratch? I'm assuming the main squad were coming out after lunch for a session as DS had just arrived in his car late morning.

DS did say that Langer can spot a pass and can also control the speed of a game so he may not be deployed as an out and out Defensive Midfielder. Perhaps he will play Sibbick behind Langer and Irving. We will find out soon enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Hardy’s Dug Posted February 4, 2020 Author Share Posted February 4, 2020 (edited) Without being a Colon Cameron type player we may find that Langer is a bit more box to box than we think Stendel wants us high up the park i keep referring to Halkett’s tackle that created our equaliser against the hun. I wouldn’t be surprised to find Langer surging forward quite a bit. Edited February 4, 2020 by Tom Hardy’s Dug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gives a bit more protection to the defence, but also allows the team to control the ball and have two runners from midfield supporting the front three.

Again, time on his side - a run of games in lower league and hopefully shows well in preseason. If not, he moves on - hopefully finds another pro club. He's done very well in other loan spells. One thing I always noticed was how he just couldn't judge a high ball!! Anyone else notice this? Any time the ball was switched to him, he was invariably get under it and then not really react until it had sailed over his head?? Two or three steps back and he's controlling no bother or running on to it... Was a weird one! End of the day, he was unlucky to make his breakthrough when he did in a team which lost confidence, players and any direction from the top. He's also had injuries. Let's not write the kid off.
