Bennett doesn't play RB - it will either be him or Cunningham at LB and someone else at RB... Think Murphy will start given the fee involved.

I know bennett doesnt normally play rb has he is left footed. But the reason i put him there was i think he has more talent and is a better defender than pelts or jazz.

That wouldn't be my starting XI (Jazz is better than Peltier) but almost certainly it would be NW's starting line up. :thumbup:

I'd really like to see Patterson starting but don't know where he would fit in to our setup , feel after the season he gave us last year he deserves to be in starting 11 . Attacking right wing back maybe ?

Unless we sign another striker to replace zohore I think that's how it's going to go

Gk Smithies

LCB Cunningham
CB Morrison
RCB Bamba

LWB Bennet
RWB Patterson

CM Ralls
CM Gunner/new signing

LA Hoillet
CA Reid
RA Murphy

Looks a solid team to play away and has stacks of pace on the counter. That front 3 scored 41 goals last season :o

Could easily switch any of the front 3 to bing Zohore/NML on!! getting excited with these signings!!!

Warnock does keep saying Manga is a Premiership player so I think he’ll be in the side as RB or CB?

Looking at our team from everyone’s starting line ups I think we will struggle in the prem we need more quality.
