That means we have serious problems tonight

How we could go into a new season without a decent LB is beyond me

I've been annoyed by him for a while, but I think, just give him a go in a settled team. I mean, Hughes did terribly on Saturday, O' Brien scored 2 own goals last week, and Collins is very hit and miss (mostly miss), yet Bessone is still getting bad criticisms after not playing for a long while.

------------- Schmeichel
Connolly - O'Brien - Bruce - Bessone
---- Watt - Howson - Faye - Sam
---------- Becchio - Somma

Just for something different :lol:

Faye is a proper defensive midfielder and would make things a bit easier for Howson.. Watt and Sam are explosive players and i think we should see more of them. Somma deserves another go, he never did anything wrong. And i know there is no excuse for how crap Bessone was at the beginning of the year, but Simon must have seen something in him or he wouldnt have brought him in.
i too would like to see more off Watt and Sam, Watt has been very good in the reserve games that i have seen this season.
We are so proud,
We shout it out loud we love you Leeds! Leeds! Leeds!

He is not a proper LB but i would start him ahead of Hughes & Bessone

Leaves a problem in midfield with Killa missing too hence if i was Grayson i would play Faye & Bruce infront of the back four allowing Howson to play in his best position

I really think we have to play a 4-5-1 formation

Why only play one up front all that happens you have one man chasing a ball about with no help.

Because Howson & Johnson together are not the same force when we play 4-4-2, Howson was scoring goals, Johnson was doing all the messy stuff well, now we are accomodating McCormack upfront where he looks like he has a touch of quality but has failed to score a goal.
Strange since we have reverted back to 4-4-2 we haven't won a game & we are leaking a minimum of 2 or 3 goals per game

Managers love to meddle :(

Dont think we played with two up front last night a few times Painter won some headers but no one was near enough to him to get any advantage from it
