[Albion] James Milner sings

[Jimmy Grimble]

He might be playing left back against Ajax!

 

[A1X]

Having Milner around as an old head will be key at some point. But starting him at RB away at City? Nah, not for me.

We really have dropped the ball on both sides at full back, and left ourselves extremely exposed.

 

[Sheebo]

Veltman coped so so much better second half. I know they were more on it first though. Will prob be left back Thurs unless Lamps back.

He better not be. He's fcking crap.

Who else can play there that’s the worry - Igor? I think I’d rather Milner than Igor.

No way.... Igor all day long. Or veltman lb webbo rb

 

[dejavuatbtn]

I have to say I thought he’d be ok coming on as a substitute to contain a game and the occasional full game to help out. I didn’t see him being first choice at somewhere like City away.

 

[Rookie]

I don’t get it - he is not a right back, never has been a right other than in emergencies and yet he stays there when fit for us. Very strange

 

[Baldseagull]

He is one of the "seven", but not much use as a full back against pacy wingers, are there any non pacy wingers in the PL?

 

[sagaman]

James has had three dreadful games at right back.
Chris Sutton on Radio 5 said he was roasted by Doku. Could have shown the white flag.

He’s absolutely right. Doku had him on toast all half, it was a bit embarrassing

 

[portslade seagull]

Not sure he is a starter more of a player to send on to see out a game

 

[DarrenFreemansPerm]

And it was always going to be a mismatch of epic proportions. Bizarre decision.

De Zerbi been making some weird choices this season.....

I’m undecided as to which is more odd, Milner at right back or the constant rotation of keepers.

Which is what I think most people thought he would be doing.

He could and was a quality FB in his career, if called upon.

But that was years ago. Even Luton had him on toast.

When will RDZ end this loss-causing crazy experiment, is it a message to Bloom?

 

[Jimmy Grimble]

I do wonder if it’s partly influenced by some kind of loyalty he has to Steele and Milner, though I’m not sure where the loyalty to Milner comes from.

 

[Milano]

I think RDZ was saving Veltman for Thursday but Milner was so bad that he had no choice. I thought Veltman changed the game in that we were no longer getting torn to pieces down that side and could build ourselves.

I think milner is RDZs player, he loves him. But I think the realisation has hit now. If Milly starts as LB Vs Ajax we are fooked.
