Is there a genuine shortage of left sided, left footed attacking players? I wonder because PH failed to find one and so far MB has not unearthed one, If so maybe one answer for us is to put another left full back in and play Andrew further forward, although he would need to be able to go past people, hit the bye-line and get crosses in, but would give the team better balance. Just a thought.

I would play Tom in front of Danny Andrew and Davis at RB with Mills or a right fitted mid in front of him. I may be wrong but I think Marcus is happy to sacrifice the LHS to free a man up to play in front of the back 4 which overall is working ok but has not given us the consistent balance we need going forward

After Crewe and Exeter, I'm not sure MB wants Ben Davies anywhere near the starting line-up.

What about Maxwell ?

He is left footed he could play in front of Andrew and cover him when he goes forward.

The Moderm way of playing wingers is opposite to there natural side Redmond @ Southampton , mata @ Man U , courthino @ Liverpool ,
So that they can cut in an play centrally to overload the front line

It was interesting to hear that Marcus was on about Dan Jones coming back and being important to us, I wonder if he is hatching a Jones and Andrew on the LHS kind of plan? Then Tom on the right with Mills?

He's decent at right back. He was woefully exposed by being played at wing back and offered no protection.

From what I saw yesterday, I doubt he could run from the halfway line the opositions goal line. If he did h would struggle to get back and do it again. He looks like a defensive central midfield to me, but listen, it's early days.

Perhaps we could try Warrington in the number 10 role?

Why not?

I'm sure he'd do a much better job than Theresa May. 😉
