therein lies one of our main problems - Macca does not know his best line up, so he messes about to cover injuries \rest players etc and is then made to keep the same team when they do well which is what happened on Saturday (and after Palace game). Both Robinson and Snodgrass had good games in a great performance on Tuesday night and so he kept them both in. To my mind Beckford is our best player (Delph excepted) defenders are scared of his pace and his ability, he has shown that he can score a hatful of goals at this level and to me should be the so called "first name on the teamsheet". Becchio did prove that he needs Becks as a foil \ outlet and someone to give him an option etc. I think I would go 4 4 2 with Delph and Douglas as the 2 centre midfield players with Snodgrass and Robinson on the flanks. This is the line up he started the season with but changed because of a poor defence, well I think we ALL agree our defence is still very poor so it has not really worked. Playing 4 3 3 or 4 5 1 has led to Becks being moved out wide and this is why his goals have dried up a bit. My son (23yrs old) did reckon we should go 3 at the back with Hunts, Lubo and Telfer with Frazer and Sheehan \ White \ Parker as wing backs. Then could have midfield 3 of Douglas, Delph and one from Robinson \ Snodgrass \ Howson \ Prutton \ Hughes \ Kilkenny alongside them with B & B up front with Enoch in reserve - just a thought because one thing is for sure we need to act quickly to sort out our defence, with no confidence at the back we are really going to struggle to go up, Just before they scored on Sat I did say to mate that we had lost the ability to get the last minute winner that we had in abundance last year, also whilst we do not miss Heath as such we do miss some of his attributes - his aerial dominance and his will to win and effort and willingness to get stuck in. Lubo did Ok for the most part on Saturday but he is still 'soft' and an easy touch. On the one hand we should have got all 3 points on Sat but on the other it did clearly show our deficiencies. Dave

Snodgrass, Robinson ? I would have dropped Becchio. _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
