PaulC Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 It was Lowton. Proving why he isn't a better defender then Bacuna despite everyone saying Bacuna should never play at RB again. Lets not forget Bacuna had some bad games at RB before he was dropped for Lowton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_John_10 Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Bacuna has the physical attributes to play at this level but technically he's as average as the majority of our players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliffy Biro Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 What's his best position? I would suggest winger or an attacking mid, hes not a defender or central midfielder from what ive seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avflife Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Would actually play better if he wasn't covering Lowton's backside all game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt1874 Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Bacuna should play at RB. He's a better defender than Lowton who this season (probably due to the increasingly negative tactics) isn't able to make as much impact going forward. I'd play Lowton either RM or in CM as I think he could play there and Albrighton needs to be starting also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isa Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 It was Lowton. Proving why he isn't a better defender then Bacuna despite everyone saying Bacuna should never play at RB again. Lets not forget Bacuna had some bad games at RB before he was dropped for Lowton. Indeed but that doesn't mean he should never play there again because of that.

WooJung Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 I think he could be a pretty good winger. He has a pretty good cross, pace, can take set pieces (why is Westwood still taking the corners, btw?) and can also help out in defence. I think he can also become a pretty good RB. He is just low on confidence. He has made some mistakes, but he has never played in that position before, what do you expect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samjp26 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Bacuna has the physical attributes to play at this level but technically he's as average as the majority of our players. I think a proper run as a winger or in the middle of a midfield will help him gain confidence, which is when we will see his technical ability. Obviously I'm not saying he is Ronaldo, but I reckon he can succeed with us, just not as a makeshift right back. Played well in the first half but after they scored he was moved into a position just behind Gabby. Still seemed like he had to cover for Lowton though and with 10 men behind the ball for the majority of the game we didn't really get to see much of him. Needs a proper chance.

samjp26 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Glad to see him get another game in midfield, excellent run from him in the first half showing exactly what he can do further up the field. Also nearly got a lucky goal from that deflection. Good performance and deserves to keep his place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarpie Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Bacuna was good today, he's good on the left wing. He should keep his place for the next game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vandaq Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Really like him, think he can become something special if he keeps it up. Still very raw in many ways but I like the look of him to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isa Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 I like Bacuna. I'm not convinced that he'll be good in his preferred position of CM but can be a decent full-back/winger at this level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillanousOne Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 i think central midfield should be his best position, may need a bit of time to get there though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVTuco Posted January 1, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted January 1, 2014 I still maintain he's not a very intelligent player going forward, but with that pace he can be very valuable up front too. Good man to move around the team sheet. Good game today, almost scored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
