Colwill's a good footballer whose shown he can be effective at this level, we need to find a place for him considering how few players we'll have next season. He may become an option further forward as he matures due to his size but I think he could play in the role Doyle does, I think he's certainly a better option there than Vaulks/Pack, I also don't see why King seems to have jumped ahead of everyone
Been a big critic of Vaulks this season, but I think he’s done alright in the last two games. We miss Ralls when he doesn’t play, but his latest injury is concerning because he’s missed so many matches in the last couple of years.

I think we could accommodate Colwill in a midfield with Doyle and Wintle with the latter doing as well as he is currently, but Now we have wing backs capable of making an attacking impact, Morison seems to favour a more defensively minded midfield three.

The only reason I can think of for the bizarre decision not to make more use of Bowen I can come up with is that I can remember Mick McCarthy saying something along the lines that he needed to push himself more to realise he could be more than the sitting midfielder he was forthe under 23s, maybe Morison feels the same?

I struggle to see the logic though behind Morison’s thinking that Eli King offers the first team at this stage of his career than Bowen, or Keenan Patten, does - that’s not to knock King either who has done very well this season.
