Maybe

The thing is Robinson in the holding role today played well, but then he had Etuhu and Hughes to help him out. If he just had Safri, I don't think he would be able to cope without extra support (Palace away anyone?!). Basically, we'd need Makalale in there to cover for Hucks and play 2 up front as well to be more solid. It is definitely probably why we play 4-5-1 at the moment.
