so where is the creativity coming from? By playing el abd and fraser, you are in effect having a back 6. You cant ask Johnson to do it all himself.

Who else is going to create?

If we played 3 upfront go direct into the forwards feet/head and the other 2 can play off them with 1 or 2 of the midfield following up and joining in, preferably Johnson.

If he plays Loft tomorow i am going to throw my season ticket in a lake.

I'd rather see him play than our Kerry. Now that would be a backward step of monumental proportions.

I would drop McLeod to the bench and put El Abd in front of the back 4 behind a midfield 3 of Cox Virgo Johnson, simply because of Akinfenwa and Constantine and possibly McLeish later on in the game.

Cox and Robinson. You have two players who will run at defences. Yes I know Jakey hasnt had the best of seasons, but if you pick and drop players the way MA does, you have no time to get any sort of form together.

If you were to play three up front, then I would suggest the way we play at the moment, you dispense with a midfield completely and have 6 accross the back and play 4 upfront and hoof the ball to the front men.....not pretty, but its not that adams has not tried that before!!!

I will be angry if Virgo or Fraser are playing out wide again and Cox is on the bench.
