Learn to drop the ‘h’ from his name then! Oh, and add a Grimsby ‘s’ to the end of it.

Personally I'd like to see us be more adventurous and start with two strikers in home games. I don't have much faith that Vernam, Khan or Eisa are going to score that many in a 433. So i'd go with a 442 midfield diamond

Eastwood
Mularkey/Efete Rogers Maher Glennon
Conteh (DM)
Clifton (CM - R)
Vernam (CM-L)
Hunt (CM Central - sort of No.10 attacking midfield role)
Rose
Wilson

I'm still worried about a like of height in our midfield and attack though, and can see this being a problem against the land-of-the-giant teams in the league.

However Vernam is spelt, he isn’t a CM.

Not sure ‘injured’ is the rumour…


Yeah should’ve said illness. Hopefully it’s a load of nonsense, as it could be a long absence if it’s true.

I know he's more of a left sided attacker, but I'd imagine that PH expects him to defend the left side when we are out of possession, so its not too much of a stretch for him to be used as the player on the left in a four man midfield diamond - just tucking in a bit when we we are defending. If I'd said a flat 442 with him on the left of midfield I don't think many would say he couldn't play that position.

Sorry but just Can't see the goals needed for top end of the league being scored in that team. Hope I'm wrong of course

Would be tragic for the lad and bad news for the club if true…here’s hoping for the best

I would say that it’s pretty unlikely we’ll start with a 442. None of our wide options (Vernam, Eisa, Wilson, Khan) are very defensively minded.
