Personally, I think we need 3 - 2 in midfield and 1 at right back. With Keegan and Chaplow, we have no idea how far away their respective fitness is, but I suspect Keegan is behind everyone. Going on last season, we struggled without him in the team, so we are short of cover in that defensive role. We've known about this for some time so there's no excuses.There's a lack of pace throughout the side and we have to correct that, hopefully in the next day or so. It will give us an 'out' when we're under the cosh at the back. (A bit like when we had McIndoe, they could just knock the ball to him and he'd gallop away with it, with everyone trailing behind!) Pressure relieved. Our only means of doing that at the mo is to knock a long aimless ball which generally gives the opposition the ball straight back.A quick wide man is a priority for me, followed by a defensive hardman and then I'd have a proper up and down RB, instead of McCullough filling in.
I agree with baz - pace is only any good with vision to go with it. Arguably our best side under sod had barely any pace.
Last time we won this league we didn't particularly have much pace.
