I’d argue playing jones on the right isn’t playing him out of a position as that’s where he played before he joined us and also where he played when he ripped us apart getting his hatrick for Cov against us. Scott’s always been a victim of the same system, having the box midlfield with one up front means if he’s not playing up top then the next best position is the left number 10 cutting in and getting shots off.
If we are going to use this same system both LW and SM seem to like are we better bringing in another No 10? As your going to have Jatta, Scott and Mcgoldrick able to play there whereas if you do bring another striker, how much game time are they actually going to get with only one position up for grabs?
