Assuming a fully fit squad to choose from, I will kick off proceedings as follows:

Roberts
Rodrigues
Rawlinson
Reeves

Special mention for Enzio

Slocombe - no serious alternative
Wootton - physical presence and leading scorer
Rawlinson - warrior/leader
Roberts - magic/match winner

Garlic mushrooms?

Only if the opposition are playing 4-5-1. Then I'd switch them for the Melon Fan.

This is what i have said for years in the lower leagues, only difference to you is in my spine i like a tallish defensive midfielder Schmeichel, Edwards, Bishop, Hughes, i always think of Davies as a playmaker.

We nearly have that set up here all ready so for me it's
Slocombe
Rawlo
? someone in the mold of Ryan Yates (must be plenty of under 23s to choose from)
Wootton

Good call about Bishop. I would agree all teams need a spoiler in their spine. This is where I'd extend the spine in midfield to two midfielders as both a creative playmaker and a spoiler are required in a successful side. We've not had a spoiler in midfield this season and I think Mitch Rose was the closest we had last season.

If Enzio is going to continue at RWB I'd like to see DKE employed in the spoiler role.

I reckon Lacey could play well as a defensive mid.

Slocombe, Rawlinson, Ellis, Roberts would be my 4.

If I had to choose 5, the 5th would be Enzio.

Cherry
Short
Draper
Hughes
