    He's ten times the player at centre half, as was proved on Saturday with our shameless ten minutes of so called defending in the first half, compared to us looking steadier in the second half, due to Hassell and Austin switching roles.

    He could possibly be our worst right back in 5 years, yet quite a few posts have a back four of -Hassell, Carbon, Redi, heckingbottom- it's pure madness.

    Carbon could be our best centre half IF .....

    He ever managed to play 15 games in a row. Never gets the chance to form an understanding with any of the back four, and never looks 100% fit.

    Suprisingly the defender who wins the most headers out of your choice there is Hassell, so playing him alongside Reid would work well in my eyes.

    Also think pushing Kay up into the middle of the park as an alternative to Burns would be a good move.

    We look good going forward

    when Hassell and Shuker combine down the right. Bizarrely, Austin is a better left back than he is right back, but with Heckinbottom signing, I think he'll struggle to get a game. Kay and Reid are our best combination in the centre.

    Hassell has looked good at centre back, but so has Kay.
