    What about KO for centre back, strong and fast with no skill he could be a revelation, not many strikers would get past him, although concentration might be a problem.

    You answered the question yourself, no skill.

    He can head a ball but he can't direct it.

    Lacks the aggression needed to win the ball. Can't pass, clumsy in the tackle.

    Give him half a dozen reserve games to see if he can play CH and then loan him out.

    If it was a realistic possibility you'd have thought that someone would already have tried it with him.

    I'd play Odejayi with Darren Moore sat on his shoulders

    Odejayi can run around at speed and Moore can to the defensive duties. They'd be immense in the air. Problem solved.

    I've decided we don't need attackers anymore anyway, its not like they f**ck1ng do anything.

    No idea. Definitely not at work, though. Honest.

    Why do so many people seem to think being able to head a ball is the major prerequisite of a centre back? KO couldn't play that role for love nor money.

    Someone said that he'd be no good at centre half because he's got no skill, and Darren Moore has???????, at least Odejayi's got pace.
