I’m going for a ball playing centre back and left wing back.
 
If Whittaker isn't going to get a look in we need a far better option on the bench than Cullen. Obafemi should add something, but perhaps one more would be handy. That and a left sided Laird. Think we're OK for now otherwise. Maybe a Grimes replacement if he's still arsing around on a new contract and we decide to grab whatever is on offer.
 
Centre back that can step out with the ball and pass crisply (what Williams was presumably meant to provide...what's up with him? He must be real cack, or in a strop). Midfielder that can drive forward and commit people.

Both needed to create space for the wing backs or to have a shot. If I remember right, it's a blur, Bennett did both quite well yesterday even the passing and shooting. Was he hypnotised?

Oh and a proper left wing back. If we are going to do this properly, Biddy ain't it.

The Midfielder could be Fulton he is capable of that,given the way Martin sets us up the CB isnt needed he seems to have decided on using Naughtin assisted bt Downes to distribute the bal from the back...we are not playing a "traditonal" back line as either Downes or Grimes tend to drop back there..
I dont understand why people knock Bidwell he is often found in the box or is putting in good crosses....
Its all about opinions I know but i do sometimes wonder what some folk are watching

I’m pretty sure he hasn’t been in the squad since he was on the end of racist abuse from Luton fans.

He played in the following match at Brighton and was poor if I remember right (or injured?). He then disappeared but was on the bench at Derby. Then gone again. I'm actually surprised we don't have a games agreement on him.
 
An attacking left wing back of the same calibre as Laird is the number one thing that we need in my opinion. As has been mentioned before Bidwell just doesn't have the pace and trickery to beat a man and get into dangerous positions to pick out a proper pass to the forwards in the same way that Laird can. If we can nail that in January then for me its just more about evolution rather than revolution of the squad over the next few windows.
