    Time for Omar to start?

    Thought he was quality when he came on on Saturday. Some decent passes and seems to have settled in despite the language barrier. It was like having thorne back at times!! I'd be tempted to start him against Charlton and drop either Hughes or Bryson. I know Hughes hasn't really done a lot wrong, but he's a lot more effective playing further up the field. It makes sense to me to have Omar playing in the holding role and have hughes, Hendrick and Bryson competing for the other midfield positions, same as last season.

    Also can't believe Dawkins stayed on the pitch as long as he did. He'd have been the first one off IMO. Still thought it was a bit un-nessessary for some derby fans to cheer his substitution when it did finally come.

    If people are cheering for things like that then they should have their tickets reclaimed and be banned from matches. Absolutely disgusting

    I was quite surprised Omar didn't start the Carlisle game Hughes is not a holding midfielder ,it was clear to see after 15 mins of the Rotherham match
    That's not to say Hughes is not a good player but c

    Away from home i`d be tempted to drop Dawkins & play Hughes with Omar

    Having 1 upfront with Ward & Bryson pushing beyond cant be that bad an idea...for away games at least

    How about dropping Bryson and putting Hughes in his place with Hendrick? Also Russell in place of Dawkins.
