In today's Greenock Telegraph Steven McArthur talks to Alex Walker about the injury he sustained the last time we visited Firhill and his return to the starting line-up against Dunfermline last Saturday.What I found interesting was that in the article McArthur states that Walker's preferred position is on the left side of a three man central defence: "Versatile Walker was outstanding last week as he bolstered the left side of the defence — his preferred position — also setting up Ryan Harding’s decisive second goal with a well-placed free kick."
A lot of supporters would like to see Walker starting in the midfield - where he performed impressively at the start of his Morton career (he has also played left-back, right-back and centre-half) - but this news seems to suggest a return to the midfield is unlikely.
Whatever his position it's good to see him back in the first eleven as I think his ability merits a starting place. I know of at least one current squad member who rates Walker as one of the best players at the club.
