4 points wouldn't be a bad haul in the context of our season as long as 3 come against Millwall.
As for tomorrow 4-5-1 all the way for me. We look better playing it and Brentford over-ran us in midfield at their place and we horribly lacked cover in front of our defence that day. If that keeps things solid and 0-0 for Sharp to then come off the bench and win it then lovely.

On top of that Redders has to look to reward Sharp for doing exactly what was needed and what he is there for last week.Plus despite how well Morison is doing as the one up front he does not look like scoring and to win the home games (which we need to do) we need to score at least one goal.I agree that Rudy does look much better rampaging forward as part of a midfield 5 than he does as a defensive midfielder either in a 4 or as part of a 4 2 3 1 alongside Cook. I worry that of the 3 new loanees, one is likely to start , one is injured and out for at least a month and according to Redders the other one is 2 weeks training from being part of the squad (although I would not be surprised to see him on the bench) Whatever the case we need 6 or 7 points this week - 3 each in the home games v Brentford and Millwall (a 6 pointer on its own) and maybe one point v ReadingI suppose 2 draws and a victory over Millwall may not be a bad haul, but the sooner we get safe the sooner we can look to next season, or even get all 9 points and go on a bit of a run to give us at least the hope and optimism of a possible, albeit unlikely, play off place.

That leaves Cook, Murphy, Austin and Byram in midfield and I guess means Rudy will be playing a more defensive midfield role. Just wonder if it's sensible to change a winning formula (4-5-1) against a team close to the top? ttfn Richard _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email [email protected] John 'Grampa' Sykes Rest In Peace old lad 28th Oct 1938 - 12 Nov 2013 MARCHING ON TOGETHER _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email [email protected] John 'Grampa' Sykes Rest In Peace old lad 28th Oct 1938 - 12 Nov 2013 MARCHING ON TOGETHER _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email [email protected] John 'Grampa' Sykes Rest In Peace old lad 28th Oct 1938 - 12 Nov 2013 MARCHING ON TOGETHER
