Just the right position to tempt the keeper into something rash.He’s got something. There’s plenty he hasn’t got as well admittedly but it’s the “something” that we are lacking isn’t it. 4231 with Waters, Hurst and Moly in behind sounds ok. We have to work out how we progress to them through the fullbacks and 2 no6’s though. Thats an issue for us. 4132 at home with Waters partnering Ironside.Bailey at cdm.

Hurst will be fortunate to be on the bench from what I've seen of him this season

Wood in a back four? What could possibly go wrong?
He hasn’t got results but he hasn’t managed to get us playing any in any particular way either. First time round fans liked him for his attacking up and at em style. Saturday we played 4 centre halfs and 2 full backs and tried not to lose. That wasn’t the McCann style and I hope he finds the confidence at some point again to go for it more.

What could possibly go wrong?If the other 3 are quick, and if the keeper is quick off his line as a sweeper and the full back on Wood’s side stays back more it should negate his lack of pace.It didn’t make sense as a signing but I do think having him in has more pros than cons at present after the Stockport debacle.
Wood and Olowu formed the centre of a back 4 in 3.5 of the first 4 league games of the season.We conceded 10 goals.The case rests.
