According to official site... Van Homoet - Out Campbell Ryce - Out Hassell - Out El Haimour - Out Colace - ?? Clearance Plus the long term injuries we have to key players. Looking like Howard and Leon in the middle now which won't work. If no clearance for Colace, he has to play Johnson for me.
I think Leon will be played in one of the wide positions With Devaney on the other flank. If Hassell & Colace aren't available, it would appear his choice is between Butterfield & Johnson to partner Howard in the middle.
Freddy eastwood will be able to just walk stright through the middle of the pitch with relative ease IMO its getting harder and harder to br positive
I repeat from what I said yesterday that Jonhson has not been on the training ground for about 16 days now and neither will he be so. He has allegedly been sent home to await the finalisation of his contract to be payed up so that he can move on. This was said yesterday at the training ground and ,if Davey wants to challenge me about this then it's his choice to do so.
So if Hassell & Colace aren't available Then Davey's choices for playing 4-4-2 are very limited indeed in central midfield.
Thanks for that Simon. Might have been a good idea to find that out before giving him a 2 year contract though.
RE: Thanks for that Simon. Why the hell are we letting Togwell go then! It's stupid! I supose once De Silva & Colace are back then Toggers wouldn't get in with Howard & Leon here, it's a tough one as we have the chance to sell him now!
RE: Johnson to play? It proves it was a bad signing. Doesn't mean he's a **** manager, just like all the brilliant signings he's made (and yes, there has been plenty) doesn't make him a brilliant manager
