McDonald Donohue Bishop CJ.
Rose Maynard.
I think, however, we will start 3-5-2 and play the same side as last week but with Donohue or Khan instead of Mellis. Not a bad side at all but at home against Morecambe I would love to see the 4-4-2 formation used in the second half at Newport.

How can you not start with Khan over McDonald?. He changed the game at Newport and was full of running.
McDonald and Donahue together is far to defensive for me especially when you consider the opposition and also add Bishop into the mix. The fact is we are blessed in midfield and the different combinations give us loads of options but against Morcambe we need to be on the front foot from the off. If we sit back they will park the bus and become even harder to break down. Quick close passing on the floor with nothing over head height should do it.

Actually think at the moment central midfield looks like our weakest area in terms of real quality, though we do have decent depth. Bit concerned that we won’t be comfortable enough on the ball in there with Mellis out, are Macca and Bishop capable of going and getting the ball off the defenders and get us playing or will it be rushed? That opinion on midfield quality is formed having seen next to nothing of Donohue though and he could, and will hopefully be a top player for us so could change that outlook.
Completely agree that Khan has to start and a quick start is the key for this one. Should get the win.

Don't forget we also have Willem Tomlinson and Alister Smith who aren't even getting a mention and Gordon was brought to the club as a midfielder not full back. I think there is plenty there and as I said the number of permutations is far better than we've had for a very long time.
If I were to pick an area to strengthen it would be a versatile defender and a big forward.

A big forward... like... Andy Cook?
