Some of Llewelyns tackles should have had him on Crimewatch for GBH.

Would like to see the squad start the same as second half against Flyde on Saturday.

I know that would allow Maguire-drew to cut in and have a pop, but surely the main role of our wide men is to put quality balls in, and we should be set up to do that, rather than for wonder goals?
Considering he's our only left-footed winger playing him anywhere other than the left wing seems ludicrous.

If both wingers are coming inside onto their favoured foot it makes us even more narrow. It would also leave gaps straight down the line for opposition wingers to run at our full-backs.

Get the squad on from the start. We might score more than 1 then

Someone like JMD shouldn't be defending as deep as he was on Tuesday.

Track back to the half way line or thereabouts and be ready for the ball to come out. Unless we really are under the cosh then it would need to be backs to the wall!

Rutherford does defend. Probably not the best at it, but he is regularly helping out the midfield and fullback.

Just because you are a winger it doesn't mean you are exempt from a bit of tackling!

a lot of 'defending' that Ruthers does is really just getting goalside, and working hard to get there.

I remember when Mangan played in the wide positions of the front 3 he did a great job of getting goalside which was so important defensively. And he REALLY couldn't tackle!

He does and that’s part of the problem. He’s meant to be a winger not a second full back.

How much effective defensive work does he do? He gets back into position as quick as he can but after that I’m not convinced he does a lot. This seems to be enough for a lot of fans.

He’s one overrated player when you consider how little he does of what he’s supposed to do. I.e attack.

I think it is the opposite, on here he is hardly overrated, he is clearly undersrated with many describing him as 'not good enough', ' a squad filler', a bench filler' or lack of ambition by the manager if he is played. He has clearly been rated by our last 3 managers and coaching staff so they can see his attributes. He is not a goal scorer and he's not flash but was one of our consistent performers last season and has started well this time around. I have noticed increasingly fans are starting to appreciate him and he is making into their starting 11s more often despite the increased competition within the squad.

We need Rutherford industry. Becoming a bit of a whipping boy and in no way does he deserve that. Get behind him!!

Rutherford makes the use of what he has got. He ain’t fast or particularly tricky. Not a great tackler, more annoying and gets in opponents way. No physicality, as he is usually the shortest on the patch (bar the ball boys). I have seen him clack a ball, but not often enough for my liking.
Yes, I will support anyone in a Wrexham shirt, but it just goes to shows how standards have slipped, when some on RP regard him as acceptable. When you have paid yer money, you want to see players sweat blood in a Wrexham shirt, fair enough. He always tries, but I just don’t think it’s enough, if we harbour thoughts of promotion. It’s all about opinions!
