He’s having to step up to pick up the striker that’s dropped deep. Shouldn’t normally be a problem as it seems Nelson plays deeper and Peltier’s elastic will ensure he’s normally found on the edge of the box.
Yesterday for their first goal Flint went out to challenge 2 Barnsley players, but when the ball was put through we still had 4 on 2, but they were all ball watching.

He’s not slow in running terms, watch him in a sprint, but he’s not mobile and a bit slow to react, but his extra reach often helps him out there and with blocks and tackles and of course he’s good in the air and is a real plus at set pieces.

Very similar to Morrison really
