Good point Rich. And a good festive puzzle. All depends on how the dressing room reacts. If he can get players like Rui, Howson and Prutton back to the best we've seen - plus recover the more recent dip in form of a player like Delph - I think he might have some challenges. How he responds to those will, as you say, be fascinating. Although our problems are defensive, the structure and personnel in midfield would seem to be the critical issue, especially if Beckford comes back as planned and the defenders stop panicking at set pieces...
