Amber - was really surprised that you started with 2 really creative midfelders as strikers. Surely things arent that bad are they? Both Aluko and Koren would walk into most midfields in the Championship.

That's the problem, all our midfield; Brady, Elmohamady, Quinn, Koren, Meyler and Aluko would walk into any Championship midfield, but who do you drop? With all our strikers being ****e, we have to just play 3 defenders and 7 midfielders.

Proschwitz isn't getting a start because of the drab performance at The Riverside, but that's harsh because he started alongside McLean which is always a recipe for disaster. He needs a chance to start alongside Aluko really. We're almost the finished article, we just need that Goalkeeper and clinical forward or else we're going to miss out on a great chance of automatic promotion.
 
I would take Quinn and him and Drinks could fight for that position.

Agree with the others, but not sure about King>Koren. In the long term, yes, so I'd rather HAVE King, but I suspect Koren would be keeping King out of the team right now if we had both. Although there's an argument that James would keep both of them out!

In all fairness, I've never thought that we'd be able to sustain a top 2 spot. It's quite handy to be as we are at the moment though in regards to final position. Now only if things went catastrophically wrong would we fail to finish in the Top 6 at least IMO. We will never finish in the Top 2 until we sign a GK and a forward who can score most chances given to him. Simpson scores one goal per 70 chances, Aluko isn't tall enough to be a fully effective forward, Prossie needs to get in the starting line up and Cullen couldn't score in a brothel. <laugh>

Fair play. I think Leicester, Hull, Boro and Cardiff will all make at least the play-offs. Still not sure about Palace (we'll know more on Feb 1st) and sixth place is definitely up for grabs.
 
I fancy us for 2nd now. We look very good now with Chris Wood coming in

Hull have the same problems they have had for years. **** strikers and no decent keeper. You need to find a good keeper and stick with him. You cant have 3 or 4 keepers a season

They're also running out of steam at the wrong time. But we know how football is, you never can tell. What you can say though is that we have the best chance of automatic promotion since we when up ten years ago. When we made the play-offs last time, we never looked like troubling the top two.
