Yoshida as a full back?

Fonte and Yoshida is the best options we have at centre back going forward, with Boruc behind them. I can see what NA was trying to do, he was obviously worried by Andy Carroll and thought if Jos could have a good game against anyone in this league it's the lump that is Carroll, I'm not sure Yoshida wouldn't have be as comfortable against him as he's not as big and strong like Jos and neither is Fonte, who seems to have this habit of trying to out battle big strikers which he isn't big or strong enough to do, he tried the same thing against Jason Roberts last year and Roberts just bullied him out of the game. Look at what he tried to do when he gave away the penalty, sometimes you have to concede that the guy is bigger and stronger than you and work out other ways to defend against him

 

It seems NA has banished Fox from the team if you believe the rumours he is fit and with Richardson injured and Shaw injured he had limited options so thought best to have Yoshi, one of our best defenders on the pitch even out of position, over say Dickson or Butterfield. It worked as well until we hit the self destruct button after the re-start.
