Good news.

Underwhelming - just one of the better of a very bad much, but bang average at best

Brilliant. It'll be like a new signing...except we're not allowed new signings.

Whilst I agree with you, I can't see Brunt playing centrally if all we have to offer alongside him is one of Ferguson, Dunne or Agogo! We get overrun in there as it is.

which is why we have to play a 5 3 2, or a 4 1 3 2 and not 4 4 2

Id take average over severely below average any day.

5 at the back really hasn't worked for us though.

4-1-3-2 makes us unbelievably narrow, thus leading to zero width. We then get done down the sides because at fullback, we are terrible.

The problem is, we have weaknesses all over the park. Therefore, any reshuffle to fit in a different player means we make other parts of the team really weak.

This is what winds me up the most! If we can all see that brunt should be playing centrally then why can't maher ? And he's being paid to manage the team! Absouletley baffling!

Like I said, he isn't playing there because the other midfielders aren't good enough to play there with him. So unfortunate but I can see why he is doing it.
