Ultimately need a RB as JOB should be third choice.
Not a great way to start the season though with our defence in trouble already.

Yeah im fuming at the idiots on here saying this shite.
Pathetic that he will be starting games for us again, like we said he would
What's pathetic is that we STILL havn't signed a right back.
If we had signed a decent one then this would not be a problem, job would partner tarks and keane would remain on the bench and no worries.
Someone needs to get their head out of their arse and get this sorted.
And while we are at it get some back up for both full back positions so situations like this don't keep coming up.
The reason the 4th choice cb will be playing on monday is because we havn't got a right back worthy of the name

Can't disagree with any of this.

Pretty sure Dyche said he wasn’t ready for the first few games - whether that was due to injury or not I’m not sure.
Yes he wasn’t injured, he’d been with the England U21’s and had only just returned to training.

We were always an injury or two away from being back to the bare bones.
Over two weeks left to go, even if we could sign a couple of players on loan including one who could do a job at full back.
Hopefully by the end of the season we’ll be in a much more organised and solid position in terms of scouting team, recruitment team etc so that next summer the club approaches the transfer window more effectively

We’ll still be a club that has to wait for most of our signings, it’s the level we’re at, unless we finish in champions league places, but that’s still not always the case, look at Newcastle.

Oof! That’s a bad one. Would not be surprised if we used a loan slot for a CB you know. We know how Moyes likes to build teams on a solid defence and if we can’t land a suitable RB I think he’ll stick with JOB there and bring someone in as cover, maybe even to play ahead of Keane?

Hamstring injuries are one of the worst for "niggles"
Wouldn't surprise me if this was him for life now which is a massive shame.
Hamstrings are a bastard.

No sign of him in the training photos on the OS today so if he’s “not out on the grass” yet would imagine still a few weeks away. Mykolenko however was taking part in training with the rest of the squad so perhaps back for Wolves ?.

DM did mention before Brighton that "Jarrad is on the way but not fit."
So suggests he's working on fitness now, so I'm hopeful it will be after the international break. No need to rush him though.

No game for 2 weeks after Saturday
Then it could be 3 games within a week:
Villa; 3rd Rd; Liverpool
Get fit, Jarrad!

No mention of him in the Presser, doubt we’ll see him before October.
