Defenders


I've done some pretty extensive overhauling here. I needed a left back VERY badly, and at least one center back, too.

I quickly identified Bridger as the leader of our back line. He can play anywhere along the back, and I'll use him most in the center rather than his more natural right back position. Taylor is also a natural D(R), and when he recovers from a hamstring strain, he'll be the first choice there.

I was delighted to bring Peacock in last week. I want the board to allow me to bring in young players and develop them, and signing Peacock was a perfect implementation of those goals. Newton and Love will provide depth at center half.

Grosvenor, another new arrival, is expected to fill the once-massive hole at left back. He's undersized, but he can flat-out fly.

McLoughlin and Richards are more suited to the middle of the park, and Knight is a spare part who might be on his way soon.
