Why can't the academy...

produce a decent right back. Arguably the easiest position to play on the pitch it seems years if ever since we produced one. An endless stream of left footed players seem to be churned out but can anyone suggest a right back from the production line since the days of Mills/Burley?

I used to play that position that's how I know. rarely do you have a winger to mark these days, the play is almost always in front of you, no need to try and beat anyone and if gary neville is the best in England it must be easy.

Michael Synnott looked good at right back for the academy last season, I think he's injured at the moment though.
