I’ve gone for Dougall. While there are many players from that list I could’ve picked, I think that defensive midfield is the area where we don’t have sufficient cover if Kenny is missing.
Moore by a whisker from Davies. Love brad Potts, he might be our best player. But we have a lot of cover with experience in midfield areas and I think we can cover his position, not as well, but perfectly adequately. Had Moore been in the side yesterday he’d have had a field day - Brown had his worst game for us but he’s had only a few and he’ll come again. We can’t start to think Woodrow will be reliable as he’s not yet got fit. Jack Walton isn’t ready, or if he is, he isn’t quite good enough. Benefit of the doubt says at 20 it’s the former. Davies was missed most yesterday, as the midfield and wide players created and scored three - long term I think we’d miss Moore, er, more. I didn’t think we’d miss pinillos as much as we did either but long term Ben Williams I think will be a player, fell a bit short yesterday that’s all.
They av all got summat to offer and individually they'd all be missed, but having said that and i know it'll open a can of worms, but they've all got a price and are replaceable. I think MONCUR hes what we should be building team around for next season.
I think we missed Davies yesterday & that is no disrespect to Walton who has a bright future , I thought Walton would have been disappointed with their disallowed goal & not trying to deal with the cross that led to their second goal .
We've already been without potts a few games and played very average. Miss him most by a country mile
Towing with this, can't pick because at times we've been without Davies, Lindsay, Potts, Dougall, Moore, and have done alright - that suggests this group is operating as a team more than most of our squads have done in recent seasons - all the key players will be a 'miss' as they would in any team at any level, but we seem to have players in the squad who can operate when needed - yesterday for example - McGeehan is a very different midfielder to Dougall but we won - it's pure speculation to say if we'd have conceded less with Dougall in the team or would Dougall got on the end of Moncur's pass to score ? Perhaps we've a better squad at this level than was previously thought or the manager is getting more out of them all.
Cavare and Thiam. Cos you dint include em. Seriously they all play for each other including squad players. Perhaps I'd go for mowatt as he's been the most consistent.
Liam Lindsay is the most valuable asset. One we miss most seems to be Potts. Nothing on Saturday made me think we miss Adam Davies, same can’t be said for the left back however.
