Jonathan Woodgate
He had an incredible two touches today where someone booted it for the sidelines directly at him and he was in the way and brought it down and retained possession.
He isn't the player so many of us desperately want him to be. He's bang average as a pure CM, his best attributes are utilised close to goal. In a match like today where we have little of the ball and no control it doesn't allow him presence to do what he does best and he doesn't contribute to keeping possession or setting any kind of tempo.
I feel like we have some good CMs individually but none of them seem particularly well matched and it always seems to be a struggle to get a balanced midfield on the pitch.
Worked his socks off for sure, the problem really is that we lack a bit of creativity in CM and i do not think the current three can provide that.
Skipp then should probably be PEH understudy?
Lo Celso in his place when up to speed? Sign another cm if Ndombele ain’t interested.

Pretty much in some games anyway, I hope Lo Celso can find some form and stay fit ( he does seem to have injury problems). I know our defense has come in for a lot of stick over the last season ( some of it deserved) or two but for me we have lacked a consistent and regular CM pairing and that has left them wide open far to often.
He is currently doing a job in a role that isn't his best position. While the squad gets looked at it's great for him to find his touch and form with the addition of winning and scoring a penalty that got us 3 points today.
The lad from Brighton would do the trick perfectly, need to free up some space though.
we will definitely need more creative play than steel at home to Watford.
We’re getting sarr in who plays CMBissouma would be a good signing for sure, not sure they would sell though.

Has Lo Celso ever been truly creative. I have never seen him create much in terms of chances for us.
He's (Dele) done it again. 11.05km. Skipp 10.69km, Hojbjerg 10.25km. Nobody else over 10. Dele with the highest average speed of all the starters as well. He is, as Nuno says, 'a runner'.
