4-4-2 would have worked if it wasnt koren going off injured and he was one of the 2 in midfield...but i agree it certainly didnt work the other night without him.
on saturday id like to see brady in korens role, king and stewart wide, and ,mclean up top, our best and probably only chance is on the break and at least that front 4 has real pace about it.
 
They reckon Koren will be out for a month.

Fryatt or more likely Brady will play that role on Sat.

Hamstrings cannot be messed with. But nothing has been made official by the club. No comment from NB about a month to Burnsie. Lets wait and see eh ? At least Koren gets his rest in now.

I agree with bringing Stewart in for Koren and sticking Brady centrally behind the front man. However not sure on Mclean, but away from home on the counter it may work.
 
I'd go for King there.

Then you've got Brady, King, and Stewart/McLean playing behind Fryatt/McLean. If McLean is the one up front you've got the 4 pacey players there, with the 3 behind all able to switch around freely during the game. Plus you've got King who's been getting the ball and running at the defence from wide before striking it then moving into the Koren role of picking the ball up deep, running at the defence and striking it.
