yarddog73 Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 @deyres42 has a point though, our midfield needs an overhaul, it blindingly obvious that's been the problem since last season, there's lots of graft in there but next to zero craft. Sheron, Shelton and Ward are three peas in a pod for me, all work extremely hard but none can pass a ball, control a game or create anything worthwhile, you can afford to play one in the same team in midfield, Green and Tollitt both have qualities but neither can give you a decent 90 minutes, Green usually fades in games as they go on and Tollitt who shows glimpses of brilliance drifts in and out of games alarmingly. Gardner who is probably our best footballer in the middle of the park (not a high bar I know) needs to be wrapped in cotton wool, Dickenson has shown potential but still doesn't seem quite there and that's about it. Lundstrum will improve us, I liked the look of him pre season but we don't know how he will come back from injury, we really should of pushed for the players highlighted on here months ago Colclough and Berry, particularly Colclough who Chesterfields top scorer with five and has also chipped in with assists, he can play either flank, proven in the division and we were crying out for his type to come in. New man is going to demand one or two midfielders I'll almost guarantee that and he needs to be given them if the expectation is for the football to improve. You won't compete never mind win anything if three of a four man midfield is Sheron, Shelton and Ward. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's proven goal scorer at every level he's played at including League One last year. Clear to everyone he's been misused and of course he needs service (as did Langstaff and Mullin). Once we get the formula right in which he thrives in we'll see rapid progress. Of that I have no doubt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely desperate for a midfield player who can receive the ball further up the pitch and/or opposition's half, get his head up and make things happen with confidence. Without it we're always going to be limited no matter who the manager is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strangely Rooney and Vaughan who both had ability to link play were never really fancied, one of the best I saw last season was Apter at Scunthorpe, not even sure where he is this season but he had ability to do just that.

Tranmere, hasn't played much as yet. Conn-Clarke was the one for me, obviously not an Unsworth type player though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
