Phillips - Ng, Morrison, Nelson, Bagan - Giles, Ralls, Pack, Colwill - Collins/Harris, Moore

The only issue is what to do with Aden Flint. What happens to him? Nobody in their right mind plays him in a two-man centre-back pairing. But he definitely adds height in defence, and is a goal-scoring presence up front. But everywhere else suffers. So is it Flint that's the problem? Is playing Aden Flint having a knock-on effect all across the team?
Flint can play the system the other two can't, it would be cruel to drop hi under MM he and Pack have greatly improved.

I wonder if we should drop Nelson and draft in one of our development centre backs Denham or Mcguinesss or both ,what we go to lose?
