Like both but not a hard question for me... HASSELL! Would be same answer if you put him against any of our players!
Hassell. Actually wins headers, tackles, can pass off either peg, reads the game, holds position. Basically, he's the better option as the holding/enforcing midfielder screening the back four.
Not got my rod, Bob. Seriously. Without Frimpong and Mellis, and with Shea (in my opinion) offering less than **** all since he arrived, I think both simple 'either or' questions are very relevant.
I think he's the most consistent player we have and has been for last 10 year. Someone put a stat on here t'other day (think it was Whitey?) that we've only lost 10 games when he's started a game or somet like that? ******* love the ginger tw.at!
It's not mate. Hassell if we're playing in a 3 in midfield and he can just sit deep. Dawson if it's a 4.
I think he's our best player in that particular position. Dawson is never a holding midfielder. He's more 'box to box'. But I don't believe his recent form merits a regular start. Same goes for Shea. Only my opinion, though. Others are available and just as credible.
On Saturday it was Frimpong holding, Mellis pushing on wasn't it? So that's two centrally. You telling me Bobby can't play the Frimpong role? And you'd prefer Dawson in a two with an attacking midfielder (Mellis, Lawrence, Cywka, whoever)?
