The one player that is irreplaceable at the moment is McGree, on the left side, if we lose him to injury again we have nobody else to play there and we falter as a result
Our next seven games.

Ive revised my predictions 7 straight wins
Love our negativity. Carrick and the nucleus of our team have proved a few times we can go in a run and beat anyone during it
Not the start we all wanted with a couple of wins, draws and defeats. But not the calamity of the last 2 seasons.
Stats are just that, but they do indicate roughly how a team is playing box to box. They show we are doing ok. Having watched a few other teams nobody yet is any better than us.
Much improved v Stoke, and a great all round away performance last night. I said in another forum it was key we got our big players back in, and that the same big players started to show their quality. Hackney has, and boom we win 2. Mcgree and Rav back and....
Now we need ELL to start scoring.
Get Conway Clarke Forss and others back... Formidable squad

It is funny how football changes so quickly. I honestly think Conway being injured has put us back into last seasons shape and now we're seeing teams off again.
Conway should never have been played as a no10.
He needs to be bold and play Conway in the no9 if he's going to use him. Whether that's starting or from the bench,

It’s because we’ve tried to shoehorn him into a role that isn’t his and he hasn’t clicked as support to lath. Conway is a cf, he should share duties with lath. Lath gasses after 60 mins anyway.
I’d prefer Forss as that 10 to Conway when he’s fit. He’s got the physical strength to hold the ball in that role and is probably our best edge of the box finisher
I said yesterday that I think it's possible Forss would be used as a 10. Carrick doesn't seem to fancy him as a 9 and there's a lot of competition for the RW spot.
I think it's definitely possible we will see Forss tried as a 10

Azaz was superb as a link up man today, should have had a couple of assists, got one... missed a great chance but so did Lath...

The amount of opportunities he’s squandered with weak as **** efforts over the course of the season has cost us points though. His shooting is awful.
We are where we deserve to be because we’re pinning our hopes on nearly men like him hoping he comes good.
He won’t. If he stays in the side and we rely on him, we will finish exactly where we are right now.
