Bailey Clements looked well capable to me of playing left back in League Two. Loz Maguire last season proved he was well capable of the same by holding down a place in a promotion winning side ..... and I don't even think that it is his best position (left side of a back three or defensive midfield for me!)
My opinion is we are solving a problem we didn't have with Gordon. We already have an attacking left back in Horton. He CAN also defend sometimes, but the problem always seems to be that his mind is not always on that side of the job. As Gordon has steadily descended the pyramid he must also have issues, so have we simply replaced a problem with the same problem?
As for Freckleton, he'd have been my choice for a younger, versatile and quicker centre back. He's 6' 3", shorter than Dancing, but a height I've found ideal.
