DON'T FORGET SOLLY MARCH. The form he was in before his injury would put him almost equal with Knockaert as our best winger.

...............................and with AK, Skalak, March and Murphy as our wide midfield options, I can't see much cause for playing Rosenior out of position in one of those spots.

Apart from the fact that AK is a maestro, acting as a m/f dynamo.... creating and owning posession and chances all over the pitch..... SM was playing well.. but as a direct winger.... nothing more.

If LR plays there in away games it gives us more defensive quality when needed and is a position that isnt new to him. Or are we going to go gung ho in all games and attack every team forgetting about defending.

Absolutely no chance of that happening. Just not in his nature. The play off match against Sheff Wed was a one off in that regard because we quite literally started 2-0 down

I hate crossword clues:

Nitchenk?
Chenkit?
Enkitch?
Tinketch?

and if we add 'a'?
Teachkin?
Kincheat?
Cheantik?

But if we go further.. perhaps..... Kitchener (your defence needs you@!!@!)

As I said, I hate crossword clues!!!

Should do it more often, the first 20 mins of that game saw the best Albion performance that I can remember, we were fantastic. As was the crowd. The two go hand in hand, the team excites, the crowd gets loud. Really do think we should do that at home more often.

That's true but look at what happened near the end, we got opened up about 4 or 5 times and could have lost by several goals. We ended up committing about 3 or 4 professional fouls to stop them breaking away on us. A good manager gets the balance right.

Just watch how Kayal in matches.........................He is always looking to the bench to ask to go forward and CH has got to stop him and to make sure he does his defensive work first or he arranges cover before getting himself forward

I fully accept that and wouldnt want any different hence my view of playing LR in right midfield in difficult away games like Derby if we sign a CB before then to have Bruno at right back. Murphy Skalak and even Knockaert are valuable attacking options but sometimes concentration has to be on a tight defence.

Don't expect a striker until the very end of the window but could today be the day for an experienced centre back?

I've still got that game on the old TiVo box...might have a gander at the first half on Friday night to prepare myself for the new season :moo:
