Whole team has been very poor, but Mulgrew has been absolutely horrendous. I know we're down to 10 and he's our captain, but I'd sub him off immediately. Loss of Lenihan has been huge for us, and those who said we desperately needed to sign another centre back have been proved very right.

If we lose 3 more on the bounce he'll lose his job, but I doubt that will happen. He's not going to lose his job after just getting manager of the month. There's no point wasting your energy arguing about it. Realistically - barring an absolutely catastrophic run of results - he'll be here till early next season.

Such a different looking team to one that ended January. Loss of Lenihan is huge, Travis looks a shadow of himself, and Dack and Graham both look absolutely shattered. To lose against a side that poor is a real blow.

Made me laugh that. He has got in great positions all game.

Rothwell looks best player on pitch already.

Actually I've changed my mind. Get Conway off for Graham next Put Graham up top and Armstrong left.

Tells you everything that our 6ft5in multi million striker didn't even bother getting in the box for the corner! Weird.

One of the CMs need to go. I'd make a double sub. Smallwood, Conway off. Rothwell and Dack on. Then Graham on for Brereton in last 20 mins.

Also Travis has gone from being superb to be decidedly average in the last couple of games. Good bit of quality from Armstrong there.

Bell is always our extra man. He must be doing something right with his movement. Final ball is appalling though.

Sky sports commentator sounds like he wants to kill himself

Get Dack and Rothwell on. This is horrendous from both sides.

Very weird formation with three sitting CMS. Think the idea is for Evans to get up and support Armstrong. Don't really rate having conway and Brereton wide either. Where is the creativity?

Watched the game and England were great. I don't know much about rugby tbh, but always enjoy the six Nations and world cup. Could we realistically win the world cup this year or are the southern hemisphere still much better than us?

Maybe a chance for Rothwell to get half an hour. Even give Brereton a go and drop Reed into CM?

Cairneys a very good player, as obviously is King - as can be seen from their subsequent careers. With the benefit of hindsight there's a strong argument to say we should have sold Rhodes and played King and Gestede up front, and held onto Cairney and played him in the middle. But that's hindsight for you.

Nyambe can play centre back to I think? But yes Williams has more experience. I imagine both will be on the bench to give us the best range of options.

He's used it to glass himself.

To be honest Id be very happy if we got Gallagher. Just feel we are one injury to Graham from being in a very sticky spot.

I don't know, I think Dack could actually make it as a Premier League number 10. He's exceptionally gifted. I could see a bottom half team giving him a whirl. If we don't go up this season I think he's a gonner to be honest. Someone will bite.

We could end up with something like this? --------------------------Raya Nyambe---Lenihan-----Rodwell----Bell ------------------Travis-------Evans ------------BA-----------Dack------Armstrong -------------------------Graham Subs : Leut, Mulgrew, Williams, Bennett, Rothwell, Chapman, Gallagher Yes please! Quality all over the pitch and on the bench.

Like others have said I can't see us changing to a system without a "in the hole" role for Dack. But that does not necessarily rule out 442. Plenty of number 10s (and that's what I consider Dack is) have profited very well in a 442 - Sheringham, Le Tissier, Zola, Bergkamp. Obviously they were higher level players but the point stands. Though I guess the fly in the ointment is I can't really think of a number 10 in a 442 playing at the moment? In fact very few teams play 442 at all. Also if we've got cash to spend and we're trying to go up it would be reasonable to sign both Gallagher and BA. Then we would have 2 pacy forwards who can also cover wide (BA, Armstrong), two target men (Graham, Gallagher) and two number 10s (Dack, Rothwell). That means we would have the cover for injuries and we can swap players round if they go off the boil. If we just sign BA if Graham gets injured we could struggle.

If we can't BA I'd go for gestede, he's at Boro too and according to a report I saw available. Would play the Graham role very well.

If the money's available going for BA makes sense. He's got great goal scoring pedigree, and that's what we need to drive us up into playoffs. If Venkys have been waiting for right tactical moment to spend now is a very good one. If we don't go up holding onto Dack and Lenihan will be very difficult. May as well go hell for leather.

Buying or loaning a top striker now would make a lot of sense. Don't think that's Tony's style though. He'll want to be loyal to the existing players who are performing.
