Quoted from Theimperialcoroner
Some midfield Free Agents out there include Dan Gosling, Matty Longstaff and Connor Wickham. Of course I know nothing of their fitness or availability, but there are actually loads of players from higher up the leagues without a club who could surely help our wet bogroll of a midfield.


Dale Vince will spend on these types of free agents to escape relegation

Eisa provided the only slightly comical moment on Sat.  He was trying to run with the ball along the goal line to save a corner.

He mis-kicked it at pace right out for a corner.  

I agree he flatters to deceive.  He is a liability and not a team-player.

We're now left with Thompson, Andrews, Green, Holohan & Clifton (& Khouri who's injured again apparently?) till the end of the season?

Have any of them got any redeeming features albeit Gav's a top pro (just not very good!)

That’s what I’d do too.

2 in front of the defence in the form of Holohan and Thompson if his legs work. Clifton wide left to give Hume more help, Vernam on the right and Hunt behind Rose. You’ve then got Gnahoua and Pyke to bring on out wide if you need. You could also potentially put Gnahoua behind Rose, he’s played there before. I’d drop Eisa completely, all season he’s pulled out of tackles and shown little appetite for the unglamorous side of the game but I thought his lack of efforts and balls on Saturday was an absolute disgrace.


Back to the drawing board then.

We've sent the drawing board on loan to York along with "the basics"

That's why I think shove Clifton there he was an effective foil for Glennon last season - I do think he's a much better player out on the left rather than CM .



This would definitely make us harder to beat. Clifton needs to shuffle back out wide to provide more protection down the left hand side.

Been saying it for weeks. It’s not Glennon that’s got worse, it’s the lack of cover in front of him.
