I'd like to see him at RB. He's certainly no longer a primary option at CB, but I'd like to see what he can do ahead of Hutton and Richards.

i wouldnt the bloke is nothing more than an oaf

i only want to see him right back wherever he came from

i dont think i have ever seen a defender with less positional sense. apart from richards

To be fair, an asthmatic pit-pony would have been less of a liability than Okore at Luton.

Is it just me or is RDM trying really hard not to laugh?

As awful as the own goal was the movement and shitness of Richards and the decision to fly in with his head from being flat footed defies belief

I didn't see that - That's Richards fault. Correct.

His attempt to control the ball the other night when scoring his own goal has no place in professional football. Truly shocking. I've watched it back several times and I can't work out what he was trying to do. Good luck to the guy but we have got to get rid of him along with  Richards, Hutton & Cissoko. I would play Elphick alongside Chester with Baker at rb Amavi at lb.

I'd rather put Chester at RB and keep Baker in the center. Baker's poor in the ball and struggles enough at left back, never mind playing on the right.
That is of course until we sign De Laet to take the right back spot. Chester is pretty adaptable and tidy on the ball.

Probably a better idea. But we agree on one thing. No  Okore,Hutton,Richards or Cissoko.

Can't work out if Okore is Ugo mk2. Ugo was similarly shit positionally when he first broke through and then turned out alright. Problem is Ugo had decent players to help him through. There again he could just be shit

In fairness to Okore his partnership with Clark(e)(e) was the most solid we had in last season's debacle. At times he looked dogged and resolute. Always on the edge, but dogged and resolute. I'd like to see an improvement in his attitude first and foremost.

I have never been overly enamoured with Okore, he always lacks composure and looks a liabilty. He reminds me of one of those It's-A-Knockout costumes with big foam feet...

In fact, here's Okore, Richards and Hutton defending a corner at Luton...

To be honest I'd take those foam people over our 3 defenders

Have to say, I think Cissokho is terrible positionally.
I can't quite work out what's gone wrong with Okore- he definitely had potential when he joined but seems to have completely lost the plot.
How many players have we managed to destroy over the last 6 years?
