    left back? play naylor, at least hes left footed, on sunday h would have came across cousin and took the ball, when he scored, wilson couldnt cos hes used to tacklin on th other side. Plus naylor was class on his first season, ther must still be a player within him

    converted winger and not that great defesnively but was still a big improvment when he came in to replace OD at LB.

    That's the only option IMO.

    Can't McManus play LB? You could play Loovens in the middle then.

    A number of issues with that team. Neither McGeady or Nakamura are in any way defensive. We'd concede four every game. Further to that, should Caddis, or Wilson ever play CB, I would expect the board to attempt to section Strachan, as a cb of 5ft 7" would provide nothing other than cabaret entertainment for the rest of Scotland to guffaw at.

    The solution is fairly simple. Naylor will have to do until another option is purchased. A right footed player at left back will be turned inside out by any decent winger and will be wrongsided ala Wilson on Sunday. O'Dea and McManus are cluggers, and if we are evr looking to toilet the career of O'Dea any more than we currently are then I suggest a move to left back for him.

    As for McManus, I've witnessed wheelie bins with more ability to play left back than him.
