"Regarding the other centre backs"

"Regarding the other centre backs, perhaps they were bought as back-up and Adams has always intended Martin to be first choice CB"

Neyull would be bonkers to sign 3 centre-halves as a "back-up" to Martin who rarely ever wins the ball.

    - Don't know win ratio - I'm not sure it's especially relevant (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Oct 26, 11:22:50
      - Of course it's relevant It's about... (NCFC) - loz, Oct 26, 11:36:42

  - He averages less than 1 tackle won per game (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, Oct 26, 10:40:55
    - Is that more important than Mecagoenti's stats then? (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Oct 26, 10:41:34
      - Yes... (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, Oct 26, 10:43:45

        you can't see the wood for the trees, Larry (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Oct 26, 10:45:28
        
        But (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, Oct 26, 10:52:31
  - This is true. I'd just prefer a different right-back... (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Oct 26, 10:39:29
    - fair enough, but also the stats for Martin at CB also apply to when Whittaker is (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Oct 26, 10:43:43
      - Good point that. Whits makes a lot more tackles than Martin does (n/m) (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, Oct 26, 10:45:09
        
        Whittaker lunges in far more than Martin yes, that's true. (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Oct 26, 10:53:03

- How about Grabban on the right? (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, Oct 26, 10:36:01
  - Or Lafferty? (n/m) (NCFC) - revsimon, Oct 26, 11:45:13
  - Grabban instead of Redmond? (NCFC) - Yellalee, Oct 26, 10:38:33
    - How many goals has Red scored? (n/m) (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, Oct 26, 10:46:21
      - How many has Grabban scored in the last 8 games? (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Oct 26, 10:51:48
        
        Which is why moving him a bit wider might help (n/m) (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, Oct 26, 10:53:36
        
        Ok (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Oct 26, 11:21:34
