The two colwills were annonymous yesterday and apart from the odd glimpses have been in most games.
How anyone sees joel as a box to box player amazes me.
Turnbull was on his own yesterday isolated

Not shot by me mate; your right imo.

Annis, should maybe read ‘two of our best players on their day’, as both prone to the odd vanishing act!

When they’re ’on it’, they’re both capable of ripping this League apart! :ayatollah:


Maybe rubin needs a rest. Played a lot of 90mins for first time constantly in his career I believe. But then many of us would not be happy with him dropped either :laughing6:

Lee, you are spot on there! It’s a no-win situation! :ayatollah:

I like turnbull but he can't play with the 2 Colwills in midfield it just doesn't work.
Wintle needs to start if the guy 2 Colville play.

I think it’s the area we must upgrade in January.. would like to see us get someone with a bit of L1 experience who can help us dictate a game. I thought Wing for Reading looked a very decent player..

Shame we let ralls go, he could have been a good stand in especially when players have an off day.

Time for a consistent, solid spine.

Lawlor and Fish centre backs.

Chambers and Wintle as our holding midfielders.

Turnbull, Rubin, Joel and Robertson should play higher up.

Chambers impressed as a holding midfielders last season and he got player of the season for Fulham in the Premier League. He's also said it's his favourite position.

It's a shame Eli King had his cruel injury, as I think he would be featuring and improving our current, struggling midfield.
