    However I think the internationals did him and his legs weren’t all there if I’m honest as usually he’s not dynamic but reliable.

    I have said a few times though we are blessed with three similar footballers with the exception that Cullen doesn’t have the physicality really - creativity is what we need really

    I think as we are we don’t have an identity weee neither up and at em strong physical or direct

    What I do know is we are laboured in our approach and far too slow in transition for the level of football we are playing - sad but true.
    True Army.On Saturday the odd time we tried to break we were so slow our attacker slowed down and turned round because there was no support.At this level you see it so often how teams get punished on the break-us included.You just dont see those type of counter attacks from us except against Wolves if I remember correctly.

    Thing is gents Fleming isn’t that type of forward for a start - hence why I said try him and foster as at least Lyle will make runs and try and stretch defences which would help the team and also Fleming instead of trying to win headers against two big centre backs and quick full backs.

    The man with the bit of magic to unlock people is Hannibal and he can’t get of the bench - discipline aside he’s the best chance we have at this moment in time of winning games - if Parker can’t - won’t see that we’re doomed before we start I’m afraid.

    Unless someone else can see a different plan of attack that is - it’s a tough call for Parker as I think as Dave says it would be Cullen who missed out - but he’s captain so it won’t happen and we’re back to as BT rightly names this a definition of insanity - the same thing over and over again.
