Just wondered how he played yesterday?? Although Sweeney has been great, he's not our player and next season we could see a pairing of Burn and Lockyer on a regular basis. Although Hartley gets a few goals, we were always shipping goals when he played with Lockyer and I don't think he's good enough to start regularly in league 1.

did okay. tried to play too many long balls for me though. sweeney has better distribution. Hopefully Burn can work on this. Good player there i would say.

Good player in there agreed however not convinced that we can have a partnership of Lockyer and Burn because I would say from yesterdays line up by DC that Burn is right sided the same as Lockyer whereas Sweeney is left sided and it works with lockyer.

Given how poor Locks was yesterday w/o Sweeney doing all the dirty work you do have to wonder how a pairing of Sweeney & Burns would perform, given the season is now effectively over what's the harm in DC trying that pairing? I guess if we still need a left sided CB then Hartley is good enough as back up for a Sweeney/A.N. Other? Assuming JCS won't be returning for another season?

Topper Gas , You know as well as I do that DC will not drop Lockyer (He had a terrible 15 or so matches earlier in the season) so 1 poorer game is not going to change things. In truth defence was not really the problem yesterday as despite some defenders not playing that well we still restricted Coventry to very few chances.

Agreed, but surely DC needs to see who's up to the task for next season not worry about Locks 100% attendance record this season. Given you give LB so much stick for his poor crossing etc I'd have thought you knew there's more to being a good defender than just defending, in that regard if any Locks distribution is getting worse! Plus perhaps if Burn had been given some more game time he wouldn't have gone off so early yesterday
