What's the latest on sick notes, sorry Reda's return. He clearly makes a difference when he's fit and playing.

Mowbray said after the match, he'd like a calm voice and experienced head at the back. He said his concern with Webster would be that the defensive line would have to drop deeper to cover Websters lack of pace and then if you drop deep the opposition will just pump long balls into the box towards the big centre forward

It's not just about the CB's, it's about a presence, organising, talking players through the game, etc. Pennington looked ok today but the other 3 were liabilities, then you've got barton, fleck and JOB in front of them.

Although we have lots of problems at the back there is not a lot of support in front of them, Stokes had no real cover with Samuel of him and when you think Barton is covering the back four today a man who doesn't head it and can't tackle he also spent most of his time in between the centre backs rather than in front of them.
This squad is so unbalanced it is crazy and although the ex manager has to take some blame the idiot ceo has caused even more problems, we didn't need another striker so out he goes and brings one in while we have no manager so one less move the new man can make it really is time he was removed.

The first thing I would do if I was Mowbray would be to bring in a combatative midfield general. Someone who can tackle and break up play and actually be a link inbetween defence and attack.
Been crying out for that all season long.

I think he knows this, he said today we didn't protect the defence well enough.

It's more strikers we need - you know it's true

Been crying out for one of those since Doyler left.
He needs to send williams and Proschwiz back, then make a decision on stokes.

I put the same sort of thing on another thread 5 things from today.
We need a nasty type midfielder who can help the ref, if we look back to Wise's time here he was always there to help the ref make a decision and Brown was a bit like that for them today.

Been saying that for a while, get laughed at when I mention Doyle.
No superstar, but Id prefer him to Barton.

I would put Webster in for Bradford I think it is his sort of game......would also lose Barton from holding role ....I would bring in Conor Thomas at he moment
as he is nearest we have to a semi decent holding midfielder........sad saying it but true.....we should have recruited one but we haven't!
Webster although by no means brilliant is not as bad as some make out on here but is the designated scapegoat......like Conor Thomas.....or judging from this weeks post
Stokes!!!??? Who overall I think has done ok even if he had a bad one yesterday.

So, who would you drop for Webster?

I would give Phillips a rest even though I like him a lot.....would move Pennington to Right Back and play Webster/Martin in centre who have had some good strong games together as a partnership.....so can do it.....just have not done it for a while!!

@ johnwillomagic......It's not a case of Webster being made the "Designated Scapegoat" He was responsible for 4 goals out of 6 scored against us in 2 consecutive games. For a International player, he's pi**poor. Lost his man twice against Swindon, and had the nerve to blame Martin(Who also had a s**t game) for the goals conceded. An old cliche I know, but I've seen milk turn quicker.

Martin out, Webster in for me. As for Johnson I'd like to see him with a ticket, his case and standing on the of platform Coventry Station.

True, but how many times has Barton or Fleck or Thomas or any of the other players messed up. It's not as if he's the one downer in a team of winners. He has experience, that's good enough for me at the moment.

Yep I'd have him in for experience definitely he is a bit of a lump but is strong in the air.....Hanson and Stead are not the quickest so think strong experience back line way to go.
Pennington played well on the whole and Stokes has done ok .....with Willis and Pugh injured would pick these four at back as most streetwise, physical and experienced four.
As for Swindon game yes he lost his man but the guy on the wing also had about nine years to cross the ball out wide without any pressure on the ball. so do not think the wide players should escape judgement on that goal....though of course they do as easier to blame it entirely on Webster!!

@ Torchomatic.......I personally don't rate any of the 3 players you've mentioned, but Webster is a massive liability in our back 4. When he makes a mistake it usually costs us big time. I hate to see players being played out of position, but if he has to be played...Why not try him CM for one game. It's about time we had some bite in midfield, and 9 times out of 10 if he makes a mistake, it won't cost us goals against

To be honest if we still had the players SP deemed surplus to requirements or who didn't fit in with his "system" then I think we would be OK.
