Ince - Centre Back

[Napper]

I saw this mentioned in the Argus now we have TOKO.

Not seen it discussed on here but if we are really trying to save expenditure then could he be the answer alongside Greer / Dunk.

Anyone recall his DS days as a CB ?

Could just work

But he's not a very good centre back, whereas he's a very promising midfielder.

 

[Mellotron]

Awful idea. It would focus on his worst attributes while wasting his best attributes.

Get 1 new centre back and use him, Dunk, Greer in rotation. Ince is turning to a great midfielder.

Have Toko as the destroyer and let Ince majestically gallop up and down the pitch

Simple.

Rotating centre-backs and goalkeepers is rarely a good idea, which is why it happens rarely (Moyes did it last year, for instance).

I thought he was excellent and got better every game in midfield think a mistake to put him at the back, whats chickson doing??

 

[perseus]

His attributes are a bit like Mark Lawrenson and his best position may be a covering central defender. Not a stopper centre half which we still need.

im not surprised it happens rarely... doubt ankergren would be much use at centre-back

Its possible he's a better centre back than goalkeeper?

even that's not too promising!

Been glimpses it could work from those occasional mazey runs he's been on .
Not convinced that could work though.
Ince should of further come on over the summer so be interesting to see.

Just think give ince a couple pre season games cb as good cover whatever happens

Centre back is where he will end up, he did have some good games in midfield but also some very dodgy ones.

 

[southstandandy]

With money so tight and the fact that it appears we are having issues bringing anyone in before our tour abroad next week, the idea of Ince playing centre half is a good one IMO. One less position to search for.

I honestly only expect 2 or 3 to come in tops - I hear rumours from within that money is going to be really tight this season regarding the playing budget. Free's and loans for us I suspect. Expect to see more development squad players being given their chance this season -which isn't a bad thing.

12 years spent at Chelsea as a CB, how bad can he be?

Our current squad is way better than a lot of moaners actually realise.
Let's get an experienced keeper in and a left back before day one.
We can then look to buy a third striker.

Currently due to injuries ( to Crofts and Stephens ) , Maksimenko and Goodwin would have to be in our matchday 18.

Has anybody seen Toko play? It is possible that he may be no better or even as good as Ince and if so neither will replace the other in midfield but compete fof 1 position eithet way keep Ince away from centre back and bring another one in.

12 years from about 7 years old and released as not good enough.
