We'd still have Platt, Ness and McDonald playing for two spots, with Bedeu who can also play as part of a two. Macari could at a push but we'd be desperate. We would need to focus on full backs in the scenario though. As we would only have Macari and Bedeu. Tsaroulla would be wasted as a left back and Gordon just doesn't defendQuote:

All of Ardley, Burchnall, Williams, maynard chose to play 3 at the back IMO, but trends and preferences change so we will have to see.
With the whole possession based approach under review who knows whether we might tweak our own approach a bit? 4-1-4-1 might suit us?Quote:

They all did a sterling job for Notts, although Fitzsimons was playing for Chesterfield at the time!Quote:

Derby offered McGoldrick considerably more than we did, he joined usQuote:
