Confirmed Robbie Brady signs New 2 Year Contract.

Confirmed Robbie Brady signs New 2 Year Contract.

If I were the manager of North End, I'd be curious to see how effective Robbie would be playing on the right and cutting in on his left.

I can't believe they'd not asked the question.

The goal against Rovers suggests that he has the ability to do this.

While we accommodate Brady on the left, he blocks Miller from playing there.

Miller is twice the player when he plays on the left and cuts in on his right. He's virtually anonymous as a right-wing-back.

Brady played there in training on Monday and was on fire. Scored a very similar goal to his one on Saturday. It's something I'd definitely be keen to look at while Potts is out

Has he not played there for us previously and been anonymous due to his lack of right foot and lack of pace so can’t take the man on

All well and good with Millar on the left flank, but to cut in you have to be able to beat a man with either pace or trickery, Brady sadly doesn’t have either I don’t think, or not any more anyway.

Yes. If they've tried it in training and it didn't work, fair enough. I hope they've asked the question. My big issue is limiting Millar's effectiveness.

That’s some claim amongst an incredible list from which to choose. I find it hard to name the most despicable member of the Government, without broadening it to Tories in general! 😂

Oh yes… back on topic. Robbie on the right wing? I’d rather not to be honest, but let’s hope they’ve tried.

Obviously we can't expect Brady to do anything like what Millar does, but playing on the right, he should be able to regularly check back on his left to swing in crosses and cross-field balls. Not playing Millar on the left is just weakening the team, it's kind of irrelevant who we shove out on the right, just as long as it's not Millar.

It's ridiculous the stick he has got this season, and continues to get. Any little thing he does wrong, he gets dogs abuse. More so than any other player.

He was good last season. Yeah, we shouldn't have given him a two year deal due to his age. And he hasn't had the best of seasons. But he's a quality footballer who should be backed rather than jeered on and off the pitch like some pathetic low-life gimps have taken to doing over the last couple of months.

Let's not forget, there was even a poster who said he would turn around and not go on the game if he saw Brady was starting! Fuck me, are we the Lashers or something?

Aye that was me, hes been a massive disappointment, in my eyes, but on the other hand he has put in very good shifts these last few games, its all i ask of a player pulling on a PNE shirt.

I think we’re all saying the same thing. There’s nobody who should be putting Millar on the right hand side of course, it’s massively in detriment to ourselves, but the original post said about asking the question of Brady being able to cut in and use his left peg. It’s not as easy I don’t think as just turning it onto your left and knocking it about, I genuinely don’t think he can do it, but yes, I’d still rather have him on the right than Millar.

In an ideal world we’d have someone to compete with our central midfielder we signed years ago who’s now a RWB, preferably an actual RWB but lord knows that won’t happen.

What comments please? Or where to find them thanks. Not seen owt and I'm supposed to be working at the moment and need to limit time on here!

Browne basically says that Brady hasn't played at his best for PNE, that he's clearly quality, trains very well and is scapegoated by the fans.

I would agree that he's not played at his best. I think the criticism after the Cardiff home game was warranted but people were on at him long before that.
