i thought williams was superb today although i saw no reason to drop nicho either.
We have a squad where there is competition for places and Williams/Vincent/Nicho/CCP will share the left sided defence slots over the long season.
On yesterday's evidence Williams badly needed the game. Vincent will be rested soon.
i'd definetely agree with that. looks as though that is understood within the squad and everyone is chomping at the bit to stay in the frist eleven.
my first opinion on williams was that he looked like a man who hadn't played for a while and will improve with matches. infact he grew in stature throughout the 90 and looks not only a superb centre half in his own right, but a perfect partner for ifil.
only one goal conceded in 3 games and that was down to some dodgy deflections... keep it up.
