Harrop has been our most influential midfielder and Moult is an ever present, so unless he plays lw I've no idea.

Whilst I appreciate Harrop's commitment, I think he is a potential red card waiting to happen with the way he can fly into tackles. I hope I'm proven wrong but he has already had one red this season. I also think he often chooses the wrong pass and tries to be too 'Hollywood' far too often.

We looked far more solid with Richman in the middle. Poole, Johnston, Hancock and Hulme can create/score enough between them. Goals are being conceded at a much higher frequency since the change was made (given it was around the same time as Jones for Hannigan too)

I think we can afford to play Harrop at home. I disagree,most of his passes get to the man and he sees a pass that neither Moult or Richman can. I personally like all 3 but when Moult is run passed he often doesn't catch up. However he wins a lot of headers. Difficult one. Maybe Harrop out wide is the option.
Not only Hannigan but Densmore.
There winner on Tuesday came from a foul White committed. He needs dropping because like Bembo-Leta he is often positioned wrong or way off his man.

Densmore simply has to start. White is out of position on the right apart from any other consideration. Hannigan for Jones is a no brainer.

If Hancock is fit, I'd put Merrie on the bench and see what develops.

Harrop has been outstanding in central midfield. His passing is a joy to watch and I like his tenacity. The defensive issue is that Jones is simply not at the same level as Tom Hannigan. The games that we were winning and not conceding goals, Hannigan was present.
