Who plays where.....

With the thriving population of midfielders currently on the books who should be playing where? I would go with a 5 man midfield with Moose at the back, Greening in the middle, Reid on the left, Anderson playing almost like a right winger (use his pace to make up for Reids lack of) And Mcgugan playing behind the striker.

Much as I hate to leave Raddy out I think Greening will probably bring more of a physical presence, Imagine a lightweight midfielder coming through Greening only to meet the Moose!

Boateng, Mcleary, Raddy will all get plenty of games as I suspect a good amount of rotation in the middle.

So as I see it the only position where we have no cover is the left and Cohen can play there.

Your thoughts?

Total football, we're going into the first game with:

Camp
Gunter, Morgan, Chambers, Lynch
Majewski, McGugan, Boateng, Greening, Moussi, Cohen, Reid.

Wingbacks, 6 midfielders, no strikers and not letting the other team get a touch. 0-0 every game with a few 1-0 wins every so often!

I think I'm in with a shout of starting at left back just ahead of Lynch.

against Spurs reserves.

Let's not get carried away. By your logic we could have Wes or Chambers up front, they scored the same amount!

Actually I was thinking chambers earlier.

No seriously you think Miller will do better than our current strikers?

I'd like to add him to our squad as I think none of our current lot, including Blackstock, are physically imposing enough. It depends on how McClaren plays but with all those midfielders we need someone who can hold the ball up. It sounds from WBA fans that Miller may not be the right man for the job but he's always looked good when I've seen him. £2M is a lot though, I'd happily get that Man C kid on loan instead.

If I was picking out of Miller, Garner, McGoldrick and Tudgay I'd probably opt for Miller though, yes. It's a shame Boyd was on massive wages as he's the type we could do with, hold it up, good in the air, plays others in, he may be lazy but he's a smart player.
