    Where do people get a month out from when he's not even had a scan? Why can't players go off with a knock & get over it in a week?

    I don't agree with that at all. That's why he plays as a defensive central midfielder!

    Huddlestone can definitely tackle. He's very good at winning the ball back.

    An occasionally well-timed intervention rather than any crunching tackes?

    Huddlestone's good at getting a foot in without going to ground, thereby retaining the ball.

    He's a very good player, just not the world beater we thought.

    Maybe but with his lack of mobility he doesn't arrive in time very often.

    I think he'd make a better CB than midfielder. Not difficult on current form, but still.

    It's worse than hoped, he's out for 5/6 weeks, see updated OP.

    No bright side to the injury you idiot. <doh>

    Furthermore, Dawson is going nowhere anyway. His words not mine. <ok>

    Will we move for another CB come 2nd January, or risk it with the two fit ones left.

    Ryan Taylor is the only option left and is a natural centre back anyway now.

    After that it would have to be Huddlestone and then Hayden. Hayden being the better midfield option. :emoticon-0112-wonde

    Paul Scholes couldn't tackle but he seemed to do okay in centre midfield

    We might as well get Chezzy back on loan, he hasn't played since October 3rd.

    How about that lad at West Brom who never gets a game - Chester I think his name is - maybe a loan till the end of the season?

    He was dirty and nasty, but rarely if ever won a tackle
