yeah, no doubt he'll build his way up eventually. Cheers Doug, great read as usual. Nothing on Michael Johnson whatsoever?? I believe he's out of contract come summer.

4.4.2. The back 4 was:
Drury who for me is really a right winger but is playing more and more as full back or wing back
Bossaerts
Rekik
Meppen-Walter who I think is really a center back.He went off early for Greg Leigh
A midfield of Razak,Evans playing the more holding role with Ntcham and Lopes
Up top were Pozo and Cole
Evans plays a real holding role and as I said will almost drop into the back 4 especially when Rekik wanders forward. Razak was more of a central playmaker but I don't think he has the passing skill to fulfil that role. Lopes does look quality on the ball and is growing game by game.Ntcham just looks special and seems to have a fairly free midfield role with licence to get forward.
Pozo plays a fairly free attacking role.He is only small with the classic low centre of gravity.Super touch,can take the ball either side and a real eye for goal. Cole is more of the classic center forward albeit not with much threat in the air.He looks quick and obviously has an eye for goal.I was worried he was bit lazy in the past but he has grown on me.Sadly in this game v Palace he was mostly well shackled.

Thanks once more for a brilliant report.
that ain't the first time you mention something like that, especially about his passing. What kind of role do you see Razak playing? More like NDJ role, sitting in front I defenders or something completely else

If Abdul is going to make it I definitely see it in a defensive role where he wins and and plays it simple.He is good in the tackle and strong on the ball so he can hold it quite well.
He can break from a deeper position but then picking the pass isn't his forte so it would be more driving straight at the opposition to just make stuff happen. Or we keep playing him in a central role and he develops the passing.
