Bree has just turned 21.Yet to have a consistent run in the RB position.Give the lad a chance.

Agree but on yesterday's showing there must be question marks over his ability. Personally I would have played Cafu there and given Revan a chance.

I'm still not sure why Bruce bought Bree, he never seemed remotely interested in using him.

I thought Bree had a decent game in our last league outing.  Full of energy, got up and down the pitch, and generally looked like a half decent right back.

Against QPR ?

I thought that he was awful. His attempt to chase down his man during their breakaway for the second goal was woeful.

Hutton is still a class above Bree.

Bree is average. It’s a reliable level of what to expect. Hutton is a walking disaster in the making capable less and less of what he was once as a defender and more now at any point delivering Captain. You just don’t always know when it’s going to happen other than you know at some point it wil.

Very disappointed in Bree again yesterday, but he's a young lad. One we've done our best to ruin since we signed him so i'll forgive him a few errors for sure.

Hutton on the other hand. Well it's clearly a wind up playing him week in week out now. Someone must find it amusing even if i don't.

I agree, and he’s barely had any chance in his true position.

Hutton is so out of position half the time it's difficult to gauge if he's left back, right back or center back.

Bree tracked the midfield runner Hourihane left drift past him and was out of position. He wasn't at fault in the slightest.

In the old days, someone would have posted by now that he should be left back in the dressing room.

Apart from two rash cross field passes towards the end of the game, I thought he did fine against QPR as well and needs a run in the side at RB.  Still think De Laet is better than all the options we have at RB though.

I didn't think bree was at fault for the second v QPR. It was mostly about HUTTON from memory
