   Personally I would stick with Williams for now and bring May on in the latter stages if needed..Williams isn't playing badly and once he scores he will be fine..With Houghton gone we need to be wary of changing the dynamics of the team too much...

Williams and Marquis work hard and set the tone for the rest of the team. May can still play a massive part from the bench.

I think if Williams can get one he will be off and running again, it's a shame he picked up injury when he did
By the way does anyone know how many appearances a player needs to get a medal should we win the title

Not sure about the EFL but for the Premier League its only five appearances for a medal, so I'm sure Houghton will get a medal if we do win the league.

I believe the Premier League changed their rule to make it so that the winning club were allocated a certain number of medals for players and staff and the club then distributed them as they saw fit? Whether or not the EFL has adopted the same policy I'm not sure though.

Williams and Marquis might tire them out, then bring Alfy on to mop up.

Our most important player this season and the one that will be hardest to replace. Keegan can't run isn't good enough with the ball that rules him out in my mind. Middleton isn't aggressive enough for the role so i wouldn't pick him.
For me Mason is the natural choice hasn't really been totally comfortable at left back has played in midfield at youth level he is more aggressive than Middleton and just as good on the ball and also has a natural defensive instinct which Middleton doesn't have.
