Rose is a fantastic striker for this level and it's one of Hurst's major failings this year that he didn't get a system set up to get the best out of him.

I know it’s not a universally held opinion but I think Town are a much better side with Green in it and have done since he signed. A lot of people highlight his supposed weaknesses but I prefer to see the positive effect he has on others individually and collectively as a team. His work rate, willingness to tackle anything that moves, his fight and attitude are first class and he gives us a stronger defensive base from which to operate. Every team (especially at this level) need that unsung hero who will do the dirty work and scrap from minute one to ninety-five. I think he could be a positive influence on Conteh too and could unlock a more box to box type player in him.

When you’ve got your back against the wall & results aren’t going your way… Green is exactly the type of player you need.
I still want to see a midfield of; Conteh, Green & Hunt at some point. On paper they compliment each other really well.

I'm in agreement with this, or at least would like to see it tested out. I think you've got a bit of everything in there. I've long said I think Hunt is more effective further forward and I think Conteh is too good a footballer just to be screening the back four, I want to see him dominate teams rather than just wait for the play to come to him. I also agree about the value Green brings to the team. He's got limitations, as has virtually every other player at this level, but I think if you put him in the midfield it should allow you to play two others who have the freedom to be far more attacking and maybe even take more risks.

Biggest change was you heard voices, when your in the trenches you need leadership and clear communication. We lacked that in the first half at the back, it improved in the second half as Maher seemed to take a grip and come and attack things. Anytime the ball was within 5 yards of Greeny you could hear him screaming making sure they knew it was his ball, something we've massively missed. I personally think Green, Conteh and Gav are our best midfield 3. I don't see how you can leave Gav out anymore and I was one of those that thought he'd be moving on at the start of the season. He improves everyone around him and is a leader in the same way Stevie G was at Liverpool. Not the most vocal but he leads through his performances and the way he demands 100% from everyone.

I certainly agree that Gav needs to be in there. I'd try conteh further forward before Hunt too.
