What this might do is get Pablo & Klich looking to get into the box more. They are probably our best finishers. Nothing wrong with the goals coming from all over the pitch.

Need to keep Bamford fit and think we'll be ok.

Said it earlier I'm not convinced with Roofe & Bamford playing together, think they make similar runs.
For me its one or the other.

I was advocating that Roofe be dropped for Roberts though as I do not think Roofe is good playing behind another striker.

Trouble is, Bamford, Roberts & Brown (if fully fit would be our best no10) have all had big injuries in the last 12 months. We need a bit of luck with injuries from here on in.
This is my worry. It's the attackers with a little extra that will win us games.

I increasingly really wish we'd signed Dan James. The phenomenal goal he scored the other day for Swansea in the cup showed both his raw pace and finishing, and how well he'd fit into our team. Think he'd really have made a difference in the run-in.

Have a feeling we will be back for him in the summer.

We didn't miss an opportunity though mate, Swansea showed a lack of 'good faith' in their treatment of the player or us as the agreed buying side.

agreed , but I still think that other teams will probably be in for him now , so unless he has set his heart on leeds we may have a battle to get him , I guess time will tell?

I guess it will still depend on promotion or not. If we don't go up then it probably wont happen. That's what the deal was anyway.
