It does change the whole mindset when you put it like that.

Its probably my terrible wording

Styles will be a more able player to fight for CM than say Kelly or Allen. Leaving Kelly to be phased out and Allen the time to recover from his illness.

The 'Hamer replacement 'more someone who will slot into the starting 11 due to their quality.

Any names being thrown about for the higher quality player or cards close to the chest on that one?

Nothing as of yet. I imagine that will become clearer in the next couple of days. Robins will want that player in asap

Having a bench full of players you would have no problem having in your first 11 is just a dream. Its also a vital part of the game now with the 9 man bench and the ability to make 5 subs.

Agreed I guess they were potentially workimg on the styles and kitchen type of player then Have a different calibre of players they need to kick the tyres on to see if there is any appetite for teams to sell.

I said on Saturday that was the first time I can remember for a long time (it was probably a lot shorter than I'm thinking!!) that our subs actually changed the game in our favour.

Kelly drops off the bench for Styles, lets be honest. Tbf though you never have everyone fully fit do you so the final squad of around 22/23 is about right.

Is this styles being benched for the Brazilian maestro inbound? Wouldn't be surprised to see styles start here

Thing is this gives us the opportunity to loan out who we feel can come through

Howley and Rus can go out and play proper league football regularly. Tyler as well apparently

as Burroughs is doing

We haven't had the chance to do this and it can only be a plus

Moore will be let go for free so don't expect anything, or a potentially nominal 50k or whatever.

No me neither, even if someone else does come in like Saddlebrains says, i think Styles will push hard for a starting spot too.

Maybe a 532 with Styles Sheaf and the new guy as the 3. Giving Styles license to push forward?

Will be interesting to follow the progress of Burroughs, Howley and Rus. So much better for them to get decent loans than hang around here because we have a crap squad.

Was saying in the other thread. The U23s becomes more U18s plus the odd fringe player waiting to go on loan. Match day squad is now 20, that’s basically your first team squad with injuries and backups that travel.
