s6 owl Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 (edited) That is the partnership right there and it shouldn't be broken up just to accommodate the captain, i like TL but these two are different gravy.

Agree, if it isn't broken, dont fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McRightSide Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Only saw the second half but I agree - would stick with this. Just seems to have a natural balance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grassy knoll Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Borner and Iorfa tick more boxes as a partnership than any other, right and left footed, pace, height, strength and both can come out with the ball. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest REDAs_biG_piECE Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Totally agree like Lees he’s solid in the air but he’s too ponderous in possession and forces the midfield to come back and pick the ball off him Borner and Big Dom for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Snooty Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Bring the best out in each other. They have different skill sets that naturally compliment each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StudentOwl Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say they looked a Premier League quality pair today. Compliment each other well and we really limited a lot of good players today. It's tough on Lees, but they're a top quality base on a Championship team 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morepork Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 You got to go back a long way since we had a pair of CB's that are collectively as good as these two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owl 44 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Even Brighton fans (who absolutely hate us) said we defended well today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash77 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 (edited) Just said in mom thread, dom looked far better with borner so was mom again, the answer was never to shove him out to rb just because of some poor team performances imo. Also if we ever played back 3, central 1 would be hutch not lees due to better distribution, it's virtually where he plays anyway when hes suppost to be cm! (Wouldnt play hutch cm in a 4 anymore either) Edited January 4, 2020 by Ash77 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Best central defensive pairing we have by far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee A Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Iorfa is so unnatural at RB for me, hopefully he doesn't have to play there again. Get him in the centre and he's as good as anybody in the division. What a find Borner has been too, always calm and effortlessly good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamiejohn Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Not only our best CB partnership but maybe the divisions . Top players individually superb as a pair. I rate tom lees but he can’t play ahead of these two 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AwokenGiant Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Totally agree - said this middle of week, make Borner club captain, he’s got more about him then Lees IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If plenty of our fans can see this partnership is the most effective I'm sure GM can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sMacLean Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Lees can't pass the ball 5 yards. He is no longer a top 6 defender imo. Borner and Iorfa must be one of the top 3 pairings in this league now with Dawson not far behind in goal. Just the RB and LB positions we trail behind in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trev Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Iorfa back on form again...good to see. He is going to be some player. Still young for a CB and has attributes galore. His pace is crazy for a defender, he's the next Virgil Van Dijk lol. Only joking of course.....or am I? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
