brendywendy mills and pearce is ok
mills and ingi is ok
pearce and ingi -NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!


'greed.

I don't think Pearce will ever truely cut it at the top, but I'd still rather seem him play than Ivar for the simple reason that he might get better and Ivar is only going to get worse.

Ultimately though, we could do with a proper long term quality partner for Mills. Maybe I'm being harsh on Ivar, or maybe he'll prove better than the last couple of seasons and return to his former quality alongside Mills, Griffin & Williams.


tbf thats harsh on pearce

in his first spell he was partnered with another slow CB, so no wonder he looked shaky

in his second spell of 1st team games, partnered with mills he showed he had quality and composure


We'll have to agree to differ. Don't think he's got enough poise and balance to be a really top centreback. Good Championship player is about as far as I can see him getting. Which is still pretty good.

Probably describes all our team bar 1 or 2, which is probably reasonable !

Although I suspect almost all good Championship players could also be reasonable lower end Premiership players depending on who else was in their team.

Alex Pearce is 21.

Has made some mistakes but he's certainly young enough to improve - I don't think we should right him off as at best a Championship player just yet!

Fair cop. It's at times like this that I wonder whether I've just exhibited the very earliest signs of dementia.
