So as it stands we have
Henderson
Fabinho
Thiago
Milner
Ox
Jones
Elliott
Carvalho
Keita
Morton
That's 10.
Pretty sure any given match day 3 will start and 3 will be on bench of 9. I am not sure what it is people want here.
The difference is a HUGE drop off in the quality if we have to start anybody other than Hendo, Fab & Thiago. If any of those get a longterm injury we are fc..uked!
Milner's legs are going, he's been an admiral servant however we can't rely on him for a sustained run in the team if someone gets injured. Good to bring on to see a game out, nothing more now.
Keita is too inconsistent.
Ox is just plain sh..ite and has been for a long time now.
Jones is inconsistent when tried and is a shadow of the player who first forced his way into the squad.
Elliott...I've never been impressed with this kid, headless chicken, easily shoved off the ball.
Carvalho will be cover for Diaz on left side of attack.
Morton too wet behind the ears.
We need a like for like quality midfielder to Hendo, Fab and Thiago NOW...we probably need 2 new players for midfield, now we have the 5 subs rule in PL.
