I've just pictured that. Fucking exciting if Hughes has the balls to go for it.
Ireland------------Jonno
------------Baz
All can cover each other's position no problem.

??????????
So are you saying we may NEVER see Barry, Ireland and Jonno playing in the same team?

Don't think I said that. It's just that the typical OTT reaction is likely to raise expectations too high too quickly and the usual end result of that is he will have a performance which isn't great and then he gets slagged off. I am saying don't expect too much too soon and that could mean he doesn't make a great impact on the team this season. If he does then fantastic.
Fitness wise I think he himself is targetting another month at least and I think that is realistic. I have seen him getting there bit by bit for a while now and that includes the reserve team games , a couple of which have been friendlies arranged specially.
When that fitness is there he gives Hughes another great option and the decisions get tougher and tougher.

If people wanna get excited over the prospects of seeing the above midfield playing together, then why not?
I didn't say we are gonna win the league with that midfield, I'm just really excited to see how they play together.

Nothing wrong with getting excited but just don'yt expect too much. Anyway you will have to have real patience as it is very unlikely to hapen for a long time.
