George Wind

[stewart]

Im sure GW is learning all the time and his time will come believe it, and he wont be just a RB , i think he will have learnt the roll of a RWB by that time . Who knows maybe even a LWB .

Interestingly, my nephew who is the same age as GW, and went to the same school as him in Billericay. Was a bit miffed, when I told him GW was now a defender for the blues. As GW was apparently the fastest lad in the school and also made a bit of a name for himself as a goal scorer!

George is the quickest member of the squad

nominative determinism at its best.

so was Harry Lennon (apparently) and look how that turned out

Why couldn't GW be used to push GSM upfront more, Gus seem to stop scoring when he had to get back to defend. Im not sure when he stopped scoring, but I wonder if it happened when the tactics changed?

I don't think gus has the pace to be effective in that way. He seems to thrive arriving from a RWB deeper position where he doesn't get picked up so easily.
I've no doubt your thoughts will have been tried a fair bit in training though.

What’s that got to do with anything ? I was only stating the fact he was the quickest in the current squad ? Didn’t say anything about ability and that he should be playing

GSM spends most of his game going from attack to defence, so he must be able. How many times was he on the wing at Wembley. I would just love GW to be included in games, as there must be other positions he can play. He just seems to be the forgotten man at Southend, and I don't care what others say, it must effect him. He wouldn't be a professional footballer if he didn't have drive and will to win.

Michael Ricketts was employed as a professional footballer.

How would you rate his drive and will to win?

He was just collecting a wage packet when he came to us, on his way down and his signing helped start our decline in my opinion.
GW is at the start of his career not the end

I have to be carefull, I don't see the games, so anything I say is farely irelivent. But according to you guys, wind is a decent player. I do understand the GSM situation, and 3 at the back with wingback. But can GSM play right midfield with Wind at wingback. I'm sure you have all been down this road many times.

He was certainly first in the pub after that Dover game.
