does he go straight back into the team?

I thought we missed him at times on Saturday, their midfield over ran us on a few occasions which I think he would have stopped.

What a great nightmare decision to have to make Danny!

I wouldn't touch the defence myself and I wouldn't drop Brown or Monkhouse.

Personally I'd take Sweeney out and put Boland in. At times I thought the midfield was exposed on Saturday and we missed Boland which is why Walsall were allowed to break. I honestly believe we'd have scored 4 or 5 if he'd played Saturday.

Liddle is undroppable and Sweeney showed in the Wycombe match how dangerous he can be with his fresh legs for the last half hour....

I agree with putting Boland in for Sweeney, particularly away from home. Sweeney's running and attacking threat is great but I reckon Boland has a more consistent and noticable influence on games. And we've then got an excellent option of bringing Sweeney on, in the middle or on the right, where he impressed recently.

Mind you I think Monkhouse or Liddle could both do a job in Humphreys' position, which would then allow us to play Boland and Sweeney together.

It's a good dilemma to have isn't it.

I would say it ain't bust so don't mend it. Barker back for Bullock was obvious as it wasn't Bullocks position to play in but we've got the right men in the right positions now.

Having said that, we also have an awesomely powerful bench. :wink: :wink:

Ain't life great?? :grin: :grin:

I think Boland is going to be handy for the "Tougher" games against lower sides, The more physical ones, Possibly Macclesfield for his return

But as its been said... What a dillema to have

Liddle would be my player of the season so far, BUTTheres a certain Michael Nelson who gets that accolade

Our Midfield has been fantastic this season and its tricky to chop and change it

Boland HAS to be on the squad. He's done nothing but impress me - his through balls are immense, he commits to every tackle and he's as hard as nails.

I can see Sweeney being dropped for him, but in reality I think he'll come off the bench in the next game, then start as usual afterwards.

just saying it seems a long time for him to be out with a ham string
we could have had JJ and got the same amount of games from him

Sweeney or Williams would have to ones to drop. Dropping Williams and putting Brown up front with Sweeney on the right or simply just Boland for Sweeney. Great problem to have......
