Although we retained 5 at the back, manager did change the set up for Milwall game, with THB playing in the centre, and in the first half Wood on right hand side and Stephens on Left After half time Wood was on left and Stephens on right I don’t think it made much difference, but it shows they are trying different things, although does seem set on 5 at back |  | |  |

I just don't think we have the players of a decent standard in the backline. Stephens - Never rated him has very few games without several mistakes and is not a leader of men. The worst Captain in SFC history THB - Overated.just becasue he came from a good Man City youth setup and had 1 decent season with us in the championship 2 years ago. Found out in the premiership and has only proved to be very inconsistent in the team this year. Quarshie - Plays like ayoungster, Doesn't have the experience to make effective useof his pace and height. Isn't a great passer and lacks vision. Wood - Probably our best defender, but can be exposed, probably because of the players he's having to play with at the back! Edwards - Looked promising at times but also aliability at times when he was playing. Doesn't get the game time to let his potential be fulfilled. In short we need to get ride of at least Stephens and replace him with a Ball playing defender with pace. We'll need to fork out as I don't think we have one in the current squad. We also need Charles back as I don't think Flynn Downs gives much to the team at all. We also need to sort the Captaincy. Not sure why Orirl still isn't playing, but we could do with him as Captain on the pitch. [Post edited 4 Jan 17:57]

Fair point. Our DM's are a bit better than our CB's. |  |
