Obviously no idea how good all the new lads are and their ideal positions but if they could gel quickly and we follow a similar formation to what England have been playing this starting 11 looks pretty nifty and would take some stopping.
Any I missed out? :-D

Obviously based on no idea at all I agree.

I reserve the right to disagree if I am wrong.

Right , its that simple , just play the same formation as England and everything will be just fine and dandy. Attempting to play football like Spain these last 10 years did a lot of good didn't it just.

Kioso more of a midfielder from watching him last week.

The lad who played right back? Yeah he's a midfielder just like Joel Porter.

Looks a canny enough starting 11 except for Laing. Saw enough of him last season to conclude that he is error-prone and not exactly a lion heart. Sure, he can get better alongside Davies but he needs a massive improvement to be worth a place next season. He's still on the transfer list and I hope he goes!

I thought noble was a Paul Murray clone. Same build, haircut and no messing with his tackling. I waited in anticipation for a 50 50 with cattermole, sadly I didn’t happen. I was also impressed with Kioso, looked solid and confidant, not sure what his best position is though.
