If we can sign the new Jimmy Phillips then great, but we should certainly give Josh a new contract!I mean, he’s not wrong?

I was just wondering.If we can sign the new Jimmy Phillips then great, but we should certainly give Josh a new contract!
I would say that he is inexperienced and needs to improve in certain areas but is far from average.My main point was that defensively (his main job), he is no more than average for League one, at present. Don't you think?
He has definitely improved of late but as soon as he comes up against a decent winger, he is often exposed. I don’t think he was to blame for the first goal on Tuesday night, but he definitely had a poor game. Can we find a better option at LB? Definitely. Will we bother?

Marvin Johnson played quite a few games for us at left back and was better than Ruffels. Can’t remember any others who I would have have been betterI was just wondering.
Who have we had better in the last 20 years at left back?
Skarz was decent, Johnson had fantastic pace but was more of a wing back / winger.
bitno don’t think Johnson liked playing LBMarvin Johnson played quite a few games for us at left back and was better than Ruffels. Can’t remember any others who I would have have been better

The coaches have done really well. He has improved massively from the start of the season.Even if he is "average", he has gone from a good Conference CB to his current standing in half a season (from his debut). There is no reason to suggest that he won't get better
When’s he back? If he can run about on grass surely a 10 minute cameo isn’t too far away...
Sub against MK Dons then hopefully.From the original estimate, another week or so

8 clean sheets in the past 15 league games is pretty impressive with such a young back 5 including Atkinson.
Absolutely. Stevens has been excellent.The belated decent keeper introduction helped.
This. For all the plaudits Atkinson is (rightfully) getting, Moore has gone under the radar a bit. He's been outstanding since the start of the winning run - can't remember him faulting him at all recently.Moore seems older than 23. Maturing nicely
If only we could keep them for 2/3 seasons ...what a base to take us into the Championship!Absolutely. Stevens has been excellent.
Stevens and Atkinson are 22 and Moore 23. I am not sure whether we have ever had such a young trio?
Short and Mous have done really well in helping to develop such an inexperienced and young defence
