Central Midfield

[WBA123]

Seems to have been the major issue this season in my view. We seem soft and weak in there, outnumbered. We've lost the battle in there every game in my view.

Sawyers has really struggled this season, its not his game to hustle like a Yacob would. I think we need more legs. There's seems little pressure on the ball against all of the teams we have played against so far.

I also think 4 at the back suits us better than the 3 centre halves. When we play 5 at the back, like in our first 3 games, we only have 2 central midfielders. I think we need 3 in there.

I really think both Field and Gallagher should be in there, with the final spot between Krov or Livermore.

Agree, Sawyers has to be dropped as he has been poor since football started up again. For some reason, and I don't understand why, he appears to have a permanent starting place in the side. To my mind he offers very little and needs to be replaced.

Sawyers stats for last season read 1 goal and 1 assist! He needs too much time on the ball for the premiership. I think Field is a much better option.

Seems Bilic doesn't think he has anyone else to perform that role. Yes, the lad is struggling, but he's not on his own is he? Doesn't matter how hard you play in this league, it's never enough, as allied to ability and some experience, you need both pace and some physicality. To be truthful, this squad is not equipped or ready for the premiership-remember just four league home wins against Luton, Preston, Hull and Derby since January 1st.

It’s the ownership of the club that isn’t good enough. F**k off Lai and take the other Chinese tw@t with you.
