He was poor, again. How exactly is our RWB going to overlap the other RWB anyway?
Because the lad named Jack played most of the game in midfield with The Chief Preston Sweeney covering at the back I dont think Jack is natural right back he's too focused on lifting his head n putting in a ball across the opposition box. Where White is mobile enough to cover the entire right hand side. But I'm not Dempster n he may think differently.
He played RWB. I though he was ok at best. Wouldn’t be looking to sign him, or the other two trialists.

Great to see White back in the team and looking fit.
The biggest issue we have is CJ and formation. With the 3 Centre Backs we have, we almost have to play 3 at the back, non of them will be happy to warm the bench or fight for a place. So that means Mal and White as wing backs and leaves us a CJ problem.
My big fear is that with Cook up front we'll just go long too often, we did last night but i'll put that down to the quality we were against, but we need to play the ball forward more. We're ok at keeping it and retaining possession, but weren't great at moving it forward unless it was a high ball.
Bish did look well off the pace, hopefully Tomo isn't injured badly and he can keep Bish on his toes or come in if required. Mellis and Khan will fight for the position behind the strikers, although for home games we could probably get away with Bish/Tomo alongside Mellis and Khan in behind.

If we do go with 3 centre mids, we have to drop Mellis deeper to actually have a centre mid who can pass a ball, with Macca and Bish alongside each other we are always giving it away as neither can pass.
