Yeah you're right. I didn't go back far enough. Still you're being incredibly sassy tonight. Is there anything you wanna talk about. All this can't possibly be about Jesper Lindstrom.

Think he would do well on the right if he could cut inside and have a modern day right back behind him

Would much prefer him in the 10 role and move McNeil wide right, but we'd need someone like Patterson overlapping to do that as otherwise it wouldn't work.

I'm highly critical of Lindstrom because I think he's largely crap, but I also think he looks like he should be playing centrally rather than out wide and I'd love to see him getting the ball in that space and threading passes through to DCL.

He's got something about him that for whatever reason doesn't really translate to out wide except in extremely rare instances. He's the only one I'd trust to consistently put balls through to a striker though if moved central.

Largely agree, as he doesn't do nearly enough defensively for the team. Needs to take more responsibility and keep the ball better.

He had displayed some nice flashes of skill, and a bit of a footballer's brain last time out though, so we'll see how he develops.

He is a winger why is his defensive work the most important thing maybe to dyche it is but I would be looking more at his ability on the ball which I think he has a lot of ability just needs us to be a bit more patient

That’s now 65 games without a goal. Pathetic.

Who said a winger's defensive work is the most important thing?

Modern coaches like their players to be multifaceted, so I don't see why we should be happy with that exception. We can't afford to lose the ball regularly, not chase to regain possession, whilst also not offering enough at the top end of the pitch.

I've already commented on what I see are his good points, but still think it's a bit too early to judge whether he'll, be a good fit for us. He is different from what we have though, so that's something.

I do think you're heavily fixated on Dyche, you seem to bring him into every topic.

He had some good moments today, unfortunately he also showed why we were able to get him on loan.

Think he’s wasted on the wing. KLP was playing out of position and had him in his back pocket all game.

Watching Arsenal on MOTD and seeing Odegaard made me think that if we changed manager and put Lindstrom in the AM role he could potentially be our budget version.

That’s his best position according to him isn’t it, he said he was no winger before we signed him.

Yeah apparently that's why he flopped at Napoli as he was played on the right and doesn't like being out there. I think he's got something to give but I don't think he's any more effective than Harrison out wide, needs to be central where his technical ability is more effective.
