    99% certain this is the line up he’s going to go with.

    Connell has to start for me. No defensive nous in that deeper midfield role without him. Would love for him to gel with Nwakali who could play a little more forward, alongside Phillips. As of right now though, I still think Nwakali has more of an impact from the bench, he properly changes games from it, gives us a new dimension

    Connell for Nwakali and I think that would be our strongest 11 and in my view a team more than capable for the top 6.The inquest for me is why aren't we in the top 6.

    That back three has managed just 2 clean sheets so far. It's not good enough for a top 6 finish by a long way

    Because we are set up to be more attack minded, less cautious than last season. And don’t have the defensive qualities to cope when the opposition work us out. You need pace in the back line and we have none. There’s a lack of bite to us too. And of course, we are the most profligate team in front of goal.

    I also doubt the tactical acumen of the coaching staff. You can’t throw away the points we do in second halves and just blame the players.
