I like this a lot.
I think also that it might be possible for someone from Sutton, McGarry or Elliot to be played further forward. Fenton is utility cover and may even hold his place depending on performances. But Uffie’s talk about Payne suggests a deeper RB crossing earlier to find Hooper. With the other boys as a different tactical option.
Interesting to see what Uffie will do, how he will play and how he will keep everyone fresh. We definitely have greater depth in some positions than last season, but also have Hooper for Davila and Hemed.
I wouldn’t want a starting midfield of Rufer and Lewis as first choice. Needs a Devlin replacement.
Anyway- continues to be exciting times at the Nix!
Who’s going to surprise? Old? Elliot? McGarry? Waine? A different academy player entirely? Sotirio?
