• I never thought I would say this but I pray for Keane to be fit allowing Jake to fill the role as a less than inspiring right back. Because with Tim and Gana out, Jimmy has to be in midfield. People mention Patterson. Who? No manager has rated him and I thought he was out with an injury? I appreciate we are short of bodies but the above also means we don't have to play McNeil. He looks so slow and lethargic nowadays.Loses the ball, then drops his head and literally lumbers back. The opposite of dynamic. If we must bring someone in, it surely has to be Dibling, not McNeil, otherwise what is the point of us? We can't flash the thick end of £40m and not play the bugger. Worst case (but not worse than playing McNeil and/or having Jimmy play full back) is play Myko at left CB and Aznou at LB. Again what is the point of acquiring these players if they can't be played in an injury/suspension crisis? And yes, we need Harrison back from Preston....

• Im mot claiming it would work but this is a situation that screams 3-4-3 to me. Garner and McNeil wingbacks with Myko, Tark snd Obrien in back. Ndiaye and Dewsbury-Hall in the middle. Alcaraz and Jack free to roam behind Barry. ...

• Michael # 30 - I think you are 95% correct. The reason I didn’t put Dibling in on the right and Ndiaye on the left was I know I have been whistling in the wind. McNeill puts in a shift defensively so Moyes starts him. The 5% is on Dibling’s confidence. In the short time he was on the pitch against Newcastle? he nutmegged his marker, got in behind, and cut the ball back to the edge of the box. Nothing wrong with his confidence at this stage going on that. ...

• It just blows my mind that Moyes has not gone out of his way to make sure that Dibling has been getting as much game time as possible. Instead, it appears to be the exact opposite. The £40M superkid doesn't do enough defensively... so he doesn't play. Moyes approved his signing -- of that we can now be certain, thanks to Paddy Boyland via Mike Gaynes. But Moyes says, despite 30 games last season in the Premier League, he's not ready to play in the Premier League. It could easily be a downward spiral that has now destroyed whatever spirit the kid came with, and that's now affecting his game. He obviously wanted to play but had to earn his way into the team in training? If he has the skills commensurate with his £40M pricetag, plus the Premier League experience, there should be no question of 'deserving' it -- he should have been integrated into the team from the earliest possible moment. That has simply not happened. ...
