Just a thought here. With Jozo gone and possibly Ajer on his way, and with the catalogue of pulled hammys from many of our CBs past and present, do we get value from our bean-pole centre-backs? We do when they are fit and that's less than often.
Do we need 6 feet 5,6,7,8 CBs and put up with the injuries, or would it not be better having shorter CBs who can read a game and be ball players and leave the defending corners and set-plays to the taller midfielders and forwards as they are generally in the box anyway?
The likes of our own John Clark, David Narey, Willie Miller and other shorter guys were never out with hammys. Compare them with the shape of Simo, Benkovic and others like them. Just an observation.
