We are not top heavy with CM, they will all bring different options.
Clucas - defensive cover, left footed for balance if playing 2 dm
Huddersfield - range of passing
Meyer - work rate and presses opponents
Mason - defensive steel, high work rate
livermore - box to box complete midfielder
Henriksen - very attack minded.

Bear in mind we will be playing 3 CM, we need 6 to have cover

Is Mason an upgrade on Meyler?

Got to quibble with Livermore being the complete box to box midfielder. He wouldn't be at City if he was.

I've just seen someone suggesting that Kuciak might be going on loan to Cardiff as part of the Marshall deal, but I'l mot sure if it was information or just an educated guess.

I think we should may expect some outgoings as well as incomings. With the loan window now scrapped, any of our young lads that are going to go out for any league experience also need to have their deals sorted by tomorrow night.

If he did and one of the two first team goalkeepers (excluding McGregor - who is injured!) get injured then Mannion would be on the bench. Seems a bit of a risk.
 
What about Snodgrass? Or are you classing him as a forward?

Nope, snodders is a winger, wouldn't have him near cm.

I think we will start playing 4-1-4-1, so we need 2 DM (mason and Clucas) and 4 CM (expect livermore and Henriksen to be first choice).
I think we will see a pacey RW come in to back up Snodders, so we will have speed (Dio and new player) or guile (maloney and snodders), depending on who we play.
