    Tbf they were signed on a budget and imho are both light years away from premiership standard.
    What we need is someone to take us over the line

    We're not in the Premiership.

    It's a valid question to be made; Zohore, Ward, Bogle, Healey (when fit ). Maybe Fred can come good after all.

    There's also no guarantee another striker would make a difference. Service to whoever has played up front has been poor.

    Agreed. My point is that since the budget was set, we've been overachieving against the initial objective. Surely nobody expected Ward and Bogle to be the players to get us promoted? If we're still top three in January, then it is surely not unrealistic that Tan will be faced with a decision to either go with what we've got under the current budget and maybe go up via the play-offs, or roll the dice and try and make automatic promotion the new objective?

    At this rate we will be out of the play-offs come January, nevermind automatic promotion. We are in 3rd because of our terrific August. September and October have been mediocre mid table fair and with signs of us getting worse, not better. 4 games without a goal from open play.

    Tan should be asking Warnock why the **** is he playing 3 centre halfs at home to a side like Millwall, who everyone knew before a ball was kicked were going to make life difficult, when weve got Tomlin and Damour on the bench?

    On the face of it I’d say it was a reasonable tactic. Problem was that our wing backs didn’t play like wing backs. I suspect that line up but with Paterson and Richards starting would have been considerably better. Albeit as many others have already pointed out, we can’t even seem to pass the bloody ball properly at the moment.

    Richards?

    With all due respect, only his immediate family would claim he was good bombing forwards. Even little old granny would give her kids a slap for claiming that.

    Paterson and Bennett for me if we play wingbacks. Personally, I prefer 4-2-3-1; I'd have Peltier and Bennett as full backs, play Paterson right wing.
