We really need someone to make us tick again in the middle of the park.Neither Barry or Dejong can provide this and games are passing us by without having any attacking threat from midfield.Personally i dont think we can play with these two in the side together unless we are away from home against a side with the potential to hurt us.
On yesterdays showing playing the above 2 along with Vieira is not an option either.
I know Ireland has not set the world alite recently but i really think we need him back in the side as the midfield is providing no service to the strikers.Hes the only option we have really.
Is the diamond formation an option with Ireland spearheading it ?
What do others think ? Im stuck as to why we are overloading the midfield with ball winners not providers.
