6 right backs?

by Only one Trevor Morley » 27 Feb 2008 10:05

Quote from Murty

And Murty added that, as captain, he would accept losing his own place for the good of the club.

"The manager's bought six right-backs in the time that he's been at the club and I think I've managed to keep my standards at a high enough level to keep my place.

"Certain people may think that's wrong. The manager may think it's time for me to come out of the team.

"If he thinks that's the way, then I think I'd be a poor captain if I was a petulant child about it. You have to give your backing to the squad because the club is the biggest thing and we have to back the team that is on the pitch."

Who are the 6 - I can think of Halls, De La Cruz, Rosenior, Makin.......

Dobson was a right back at Brentford, has to be him as number 6.

Bikey plays right back for Cameroon. Er, sometimes...

Each time Coppell has bought a right back though it seems Murty has raised his game to see him off, so good on him. A perfect example of competition for places benefiting the team.

The thing I found strange about that interview was that it was like Murty was saying to Coppell 'It's Ok, I'll let you drop me if you want'.

Just who exactly is in charge of picking the team???

Not sure about that, although I was happy to see him oxf*rd off right back to Bristol.
