What is our starting Line-Up when everybody is fit

Defence may be easy but what about midfield and forwards?

Too hypothetical a question to answer Barry because injuries will always kick in at sometime.

We just have to go with what we have got but the one or two who are in hiding on the physio's table need sorting out PDQ!

For me I’d play Hendrick in middle of park with cork and Defour in the hole behind woods, he’s far too gifted a footballer to have him running towards his own goal too much, Hendrick struggles with his position however imo he gets through some work protecting the back line and our midfield - he’s a big strong boy and competes physically , I think a lot of people miss that with him.
He’s been asked to be a physical out ball but also an intelligent playmaker ( he’s simply not that ) feel for him a bit really as he didn’t come here for that job.

Agreed army88. Fish out of water springs readily to my mind! :s
