On Saturday, I don't think anyone in midfield deserves to lose their place so I can't see them coming back into the team or even squad but they're two great options to have - Johnson especially. There were stories about Gelson being unsettled since Sven left and that seemed to coincide with him being left out of the squad. I would say that we probably have too many central-midfielders to keep them all happy and I can see one or two leaving come the end of the season. King had a decent game last Sunday and he played more of a classic box-to-box midfielder role than he has been and the good thing was that he coped with the physical challenge that it brought about and that's been a criticism for a long time about him but he stood up well and he was a big factor in us winning the battle in midfield which allowed us to assert our dominance on the scoreboard.
