To me Lankester will have to fit in but where? O'Reilly currently operates down the right but I wouldn't drop him. Behind March, would seem to be a good place. However, Lunt is playing well and integral to the press, which, maybe, JL wouldn't replicate. Despite his success so far, Agius is perhaps the weakest link perhaps JL could play on the left. Okay, so what about Holicek? This, according to many, was to be his season but I'd prefer O'Reilly.
Shilow would simply have to wait his chance come injuries. For me, he's down the pecking order anyway. And then, where does Tezgel fit into all this. With all the hype about this player, he must be expecting a lot of game time.
The area we are weakest is perhaps midfield. This is where a few injuries could leave us short and Lunt could move back there to make way and to fill in but apart from that?
I assume LB has a few formation alternatives in mind to cope with injuries but come Christmas we are looking top heavy with forwards.
