A lot was made of the Hugill fo Watters substitution but it was the Doyle for King substitution that changed that game. Doyle got us on the front foot. End of the day we were home to a Coventry we should be trying to impose our game on them not sit back and be so defensive as we were before Doyle replaced King.

Morrison talks about not putting square pegs in round holes but King at 8 / RHS of midfield was exactly that for me.
interesting about king playing in the same position as Wintle for the u23s.

that's clearly a Key role for us, and with Pack leaving soon we need to either sign some cover in the summer, or promote from within.
perhaps they're trying to give king plenty of game time now to see if we can avoid signing that player in the summer, allowing us to focus on other positions
