Same. Today he put Rafferty in difficult positions a few times with poorly executed and poorly picked passes (although Rafferty made it difficult for himself at times too). He isn't on today's evidence ideal for a team that wants to play out from the back.
That being said, he also isn't match sharp and will get that back soon enough and so will adapt in time, but my thoughts are that while Raggett is a perfectly adequate backup for the odd game, we'll be struggling to get promoted if he's in the starting XI for the rest of the season. Towler is a left sided cb so is more a Shaughnessy backup than a Poole backup. I've seen some nuclear options bandied about on the social media cesspit like Pack at centre back seemingly forgetting about the defending part of being a defender. January can't come soon enough.
i didn’t remember of any instance where Raggett put anyone in a difficult position with his passing. Care to highlight one?
