Where Is Enrique?

That is the cry which a lot of Toon fan's have been saying. Charles N'Zogbia is a liability at LB and has been to blame for a number of goals this season. The thing is he is not a Left Back so why do managers keep playing him there. Enrique hasn't been as bad as 6-7 players have been this season, with his defensive play being decent and hell lot better than Babayaro's + the fact that he is still only 21 and played for the Spanish U21's the other week.

There have been rumors that he likes the Spanish Vino too much or is unhappy and I don't blame him. Even if he isn't good enough, David Edgar has been really impressive for the reserves over the last 3 months starting to look a real prospect after falling off his wheels for 9 months. For those who didn't know, the reason Roeder and Allardyce didn't consider him at all for the first team was because he had an Alcohol problem for 9 months.

Getting this LB problem sorted, could solve other problems i.e. CM with Charlie to fit into their as our attacking problems and certainly lack of pace there all season.

Hopefully if we get that sorted and some much needed pace into midfield and get martins back who is needed badly and I don't even rate him that much.
