held the line admirably with O'Neill against Arsenal

I like the guy, he's a great footballer and unselfish, whereas Mulumbu appears to be making a comeback from retirement and Tettey is erratic, and suspended in any case. Howson is s**t in centre mid or wide right, but looks better in the Wes role or behind striker, however you want to describe it.

Our 4-4-1-1 has been truly sussed and lacks power in the wes role; he can hardly take a corner let alone score from 20-30 yards; lacks aerial strength and finishing when Jerome plays; and pace when Mbok plays.

Naismith and Bamford are the best solution and will give the opposition LOADS to think about. Pace, pressing excellent finishing, and most importantly improvisation.
