How about we take a chance on Steven Caulker ? Like most of our squad he will need managing carefully , but having Caulker and Kiernan as our central defenders would be quality and would allow Anton Ferdinand to sit deep midfield and play in Phil Brown's cherished "Ivan Campo role " ..... sitting in and organising , whilst John White could play at full back and give us someone who knows how to actually defend properly playing there.
The article below is interesting , not only for the Drewe Broughton mention , but for some of our "fans" who like to verbally abuse our own players on the pitch - and how even International class players are affected mentally by it and how it has such a massive detrimental affect on the team. Players need confidence more than anything else , so even after the horrible drubbing of the past 2 games we need to encourage every single one of our men on Saturday + make this a turning point in our season. UTB !
