Corcoran

Post by D14MNDS »

For me whenever he plays usually puts in a fine display, could have maybe even been man of the match against Yeovil, got me thinking why he never gets more of a run in the team, and that when he does its at full back rather than centre back.

I love Corcoran. I want a poster of him on my wall with only a pint of Guiness covering his manhood.
A true outlaw finds the balance between the passion in his heart and the reason in his mind. The outcome is the balance of might and right.

I also thought Corky was our best player against Yeovil. He is usually reliable, but there were a few games at the start of the season where he looked very shaky, Barrow away in particular springs to mind.

His height is still an issue with him playing centre back when partnering Jamie Stuart, although Huke is only an inch taller. Against bigger, more direct teams, I think he struggles.

his only problem is, he's too good in too many positions.

His versatility is his problem, it's only a little surprising that it hasn't also been the case for Huke, possibly because Huke isn't as good at the full back position. Corcoran doesn't really get a chance at the defensive midfield role in the 4-3-3 where his height might not be a problem, it might be good to try him there since the attacking side of his full back game has improved...

Usually doe's well in a position, then someone like Stuart gets suspended, he covers at centre half, Stuart returns and then he's back on the bench! :?

What makes you think that there's an apostrophe in the word "does"?
