Perhaps we should construct an impassioned letter with detailed reasons why there is an almost universal demand for this type of central midfielder.
We could strongly express our long standing concerns on this matter and stress the importance of what us unqualified amateurs strongly feel. We of course have the benefit of seeing what's been consistently missing under IB and NA previously.
Or we need a 'meet the manager' evening where NCM folk ask the same question in a variety of ways to get home the point.
Either or might assist the new management duo.
