Disagree about that being our strongest midfield

If you're going to play both Wes and Pilks together in a diamond then you need somebody robust in there with them, there was absolutely no balance in yesterdays midfield, which played right into Leicester's favour seeing as they like to break on the counter with pace, like a knife through butter for the second goal.

Atleast with Surman in the team at Swansea you knew he'd put in a shift defensively, you can't rely on Pilks to do that unfortunately, Wes is never going to dominate the midfield in terms of 50/50's and Fox tends to mark space rather than go in for strong tackles. Bennett was the only one in that midfield capable (despite not performing) of dealing with Leicester's grit. We allowed Leicester far too much room whilst putting increased pressure on our reserve back four.
