I think the problem with doing as you suggest SS, is that 2 of our certain starters are currently out (Jai & Drury) and we have a very small squad, so the midfield is really picking itself, as those on the bench (Midson, Lee, Griggs, MO & Flitney) are not what you would call central midfield players, nor are any of them enforcers, which we are sadly missing. We look too weak, too soft, when teams put it up us.
I'm not sure whats going on with Will & Mr T but they now look flimsy and unsure of themselves, maybe they are not getting the protection the were getting a few weeks back, but to lose the midfield battle, particularly in the middle of the park, is generally going to mean defeats.
IMO, we still need a rock solid Center Half, in the mould of Josh Gowling at Grimsby, we need a target man to play upfront with Tubbs and we need an enforcer in midfield who is going to win the midfield battle for us, and then give it to Drury, Jai to play their stuff.
Shaun Pearson isn't getting a game at Grimsby, go all out to get him on loan at CH! not that Grimsby are likely to want to loan him to us.
Their big colored lad (no.24) looked good as a central enforcer, reminded me of big Pete Adeniyi, he's the type we need to blend in with our flair players. He won everything last night and then kept giving the ball to the no.34 to run riot, very effective indeed.
We still have games in hand, so all is not lost if we can get back to winning ways and put a decent run together, but when you are not winning for 10 games, that gets harder and harder to do. Going on the last 10 games, there are now at least 8 teams who are better than us, so if we do not turn the corner quickly, we are going to drop out of the top 5 and it will be hard to see us making the play offs, if that happens.
