Central midfield, and up front for me


Well, by my reckoning we've got 8 (Disley, Clifton, Venney, Vose, Summerfield, Comley, McAlister, Berrett, Davies) central midfielders on the books, how many are we replacing?

But according to many on here:

Disley legs have gone
Clifton is out on loan
Venney is too small
Vose is a winger
Summerfield is sh!t
Comley is only on loan
McAlister is injured all the time
Berrett is sh!t
Davies is a RB

Clifton back off loan and 7 more centre midfielders then!!

Summerfield and Berrett simply not good enough in my opinion...

Not good enough is harsh in mine. Summerfield has games where he just disappears and Berrett has had some shockers but mostly when our previous manager insisted in playing him out of position. To me, you can't have a midfield with all 3 of Vose, Berrett and Summerfield and 2 of the 3 is a bit of a luxury.

I'll leave where the squad needs strengthening in January to Marcos Bignot.
Who knows which players in the current squad will adapt best to his way of playing, there could be a few surprises either way.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

At the AGM, Fenty said that Bignot wants to reduce to a squad of 22 players to work with, we currently have 24 inc loan players.

I guess we will find out soon enough if that means as from the January transfer window.

A proper ball winning athletic central midfielder, a mobile centre half and a forward.

We've got eight options for central midfield and we're still so weak in there. Priority to sort out in January for me..

Agree completely re midfield but think we will struggle as all on contract unless loan players, who for me are two of the better players, go back. Hopefuly McAllister's return will help improve matters.
