I'm sensing a little bit of nervous tension in this thread. I want Hunt fit and raring to go for Southend United in as many games as PB wants to play him. He has started a few but injury does follow him around a bit. So maybe Phil decides to use him as an impact sub, will Hunt's pride like that?....I'm not sure. No doubt the next few days will see what unfolds if there are legs in this story.
He will only be on loan if he is fit, and if he is fit wouldnt it be better off to have him here?
He doesn't suffer from ego and always... ALWAYS... will do what is best for the team.
Having played a lot of Football manager, 532 and 352 are very similar. :winking:
Like I said originally, it depends on the role you're giving the wingbacks. If they play like John White it's 532, if it's like Dani Alves, then it's 352. Seeing as Hendrie set up two goals I'd suggest they're being given license to bomb on. Anyway, this doesn't have much to do with Hunt. My view is that swapping Hunt for Payne wouldn't really make us any more or less defensive.
Why would he ? If we can shut out a free scoring Posh and batter Coventry the system appears to work at both ends. For me the key has been 1/ Payne fits the system perfectly so we are getting the best out of him 2/ The two wide players have been immense 3/ AB can control Bolger & Thompson and get forward more himself without worrying about being caught too high up the pitch. No need to change anything.No, it wouldn't. But that isn't what I said. I said swapping one of the three centre backs for Hunt would make us more attacking. We're only playing with three centre backs because of the 11 goals in 3 games. I believe that once PB is happy that we're more solid defensively then he'll revert four at the back.

At present a fit Noel Hunt is an ESSENTIAL part of the squad, he might not start too often BUT he ought to figure in most games as he is the clear worthwhile replacement or sub for Ty or Jack.
PB would only let him go if he has someone else to bring in.
You are Noel's mum and I claim etc.......................
