huckerby

is our best player but is it time to change his role. Perhaps the attacking formation will be ok in the championship as it has worked before, however, it is not good enough for the premiership. So do we either stick with it for next season, or be ambitious and plan to be in the premiership in two years - and therefore prepare for that.

In which case, perhaps we should play huckerby in a free role infront of three midfielders who know how to defend - Safri is the obvious one and perhaps Jonson would be good - needing one other. This would remove the facade of having two players to handle our left hand side (which isn't the case at the moment).

Personally, I think we should play the formation we finished with last season - tried and tested. Try to gain an understanding between new defenders and cross the huckerby situation if we gain promotion again.
