We've scored 40 goals in 39 games...

42. We had scored 33 in the previous 39 league games....

Re: Centre halves

It would have been a disaster attempting to get Morrison fit and playing for us.

And our defence isn't?

So you want to compound the problem, rather than try and make it better?

It was settled in January, when we won 2, drew 4 and lost 0, but then we lost 7-0 to Leeds and we haven't seen that partnership again. In our 13 games since then we've had 10 different combinations, switching regularly between 2 & 3 CBs and the CB selection has only been unchanged once. It's not the only defensive issue, and of course sometimes it's influenced by injuries and suspensions, but it's not helping is it.
