I think we'd all agree that the team cannot afford to carry passengers through games.
Miles has been pedestrian, at best, from what I've seen of him lately and if reports from those who went last night are to be believed and McConville still has an awful lot to learn. Like others have said, he's probably one for the future and maybe we'll see him in a better light next season, when hopefully he will have "filled out" a little (i.e. making him not as easy to muscle off the ball)and learned from his experiences from this season.
For my money,like others have said, Coley has to give Turner some game time.Whether it's the cameo role others have suggested, or a start and play him for an hour, then sub him. Turner has already shown undoubted potential and the lad has shown he's not afraid to "put a shift in"..... Better to play someone with that attitude, fully fit or not, than carry a passenger.
As for Dunbavin....why has Coley dropped Boozer??? on the strength of a mistake or two at Northampton ??? As has been said earlier, defenders always play better when they have confidence that there is a decent keeper behind them. In my opinion, Dunbavin doesn't fit into that equation.
Id start the Bradford game with the following: (4-5-1)
Boozer
Lees Kempson Edwards Winnard
Grant Ryan Joyce (
if fit ) Proctor Turner
Symes.
With Grant and Turner on the flanks and pushing forward, it'd effectively be playing 4-3-3 when going forward.
Drop McConville & Miles to the bench. Maybe giving both time to warm the wood (so to speak!! )and reflect on their recent performances, it might make 'em a bit hungrier???
