He'll carry on being the answer until we see him play more than just cameo appearances. On Saturday he seemed to me to be bereft of ideas at times as we were pressing to equalise.
Seriously though, why is central midfield the problem? Get Maja on the pitch instead of Heggo, get the wide attackers to attack instead of passing back all the time - we'd be 2 or 3 points better off and not worrying too much about central midfield.
Because we are not creating enough goal scoring chances because we don't have enough attacking threat in the pitch. And FB and CM are the key areas to look at. We need an extra attacking threat in the team.
I don't think it's a case of just telling players to attack more. MJ is again topping the table for individual stats, but he's have to to work really hard to get any sort of space because the balance of the team around him isn't right so he never has just one bloke to beat, he has 3.
