my money is on shifting Ayling into the centre and using
Breradi/Coyle/Taylor at fullback - that's not shabby.

Fully agree with all that Dave.
If you assume the 3 behind Wood are Pedraza - Hernandez - Roofe, you
then
have some real pace / game changers on the bench in Sacko, Doukara
and
Barrow. The sight of that bench will scare a few tiring full backs!
But as you say, if Wood pulls a hamstring etc, we're cobbling it
together a
bit - basically relying on Doukara or Roofe stepping into a role
they've
barely done all season (if you discount Antonsson - he really
doesn't look
cut out for lone striker duties).
At centre back Bartley is 2 bookings from a 2 game ban and Jannson
is 5
bookings from a 3 game ban - and they both like a challenge! We
really need
Cooper to step up when needed (and some fans to get off his back and
support him) - or Taylor to get fit asap so we can move Ayling into
the
centre when needed. But either way the quality takes a real dip for
some
key games there. And if they get suspended at the same time we're
f***ed!
Centre back is a tough one to have managed to cover though - hard to
get
someone decent in on loan / short term when there is a real chance
they'd
never actually play. One of those situations you really need a
decent U-23
prospect who you believe could step in.
Basically from now on our priority in each match is (a) Win (b) keep
Wood,
Bartley, Jannson fit (c) hope Bartley and Jannson don't get booked,

I am reasonably excited with the two signings they both appear to
have
genuine pace and trickery, so they should excite the crowd and as we
all
know pace, at any level, is a great asset.
Monk has sorted the defesive unit so it is no surprise he turned his
attention to attacking
I am a bit surprised we did not bring in cover for Wood and / or
cover at
centre back but maybe the emergency loan could come into play if we
need it?
Promotion, either auto or more likely via play offs will depend on
Wood
staying fit and not hitting a long dry spell and Bartley and Janson
also
staying fit and not being banned when it counts. Jansons next ban
will be
for 3 games so we need to make sure just before play offs that
either he is
at least 2 bookings away from a ban or that he deliberately gets
banned
before the play offs start
I still think that suspensions cost us the play off final v Watford
(maybe clutching at straws) but the fact that Crainey, for all his
faults,
was unable to play due to red v Preston, meant that Blackwell moved
Kilgallon to left back , where he was caught out, and Gregan at
centre back
* again his lack of pace meant he was a liabilty at Wembley. Also
Cresswell
was suspended which meant we had to play Hulse on his own up front
a role
more suited, due to his atheticism to Cresswell. Yes other things
came into
play on the day but I think those two bans cost us dear, and I
worry that
going into a play off final with Wood and Janson (or Bartley)
missing would
be another disaster

Weirdly, I warched a few of Swansea"s games early in the
season........and
I really liked the look of Barrow. He reminded me somewhat of
Gradel.
