More needed in the middle of the pitch

[andy g]

The last two games, Cole Skuse has run himself into the ground, trying to break up attacks, but he needs help there. Too often the opposition is going through our midfield unchallenged.

Its been pointed out for a long time that Lee Johnson could do more, but the same needs to be said about David Noble. He's brilliant when he's on the ball and keeps position really well. BUT... when the other team are on the attack, he often floats about midfield, not really making an effort to close the opposition down. Its hard work when LJ doesnt defend, we cant afford to have 2 players doing this.

Still, four points clear - that SHOULD be enough... and that last goal by Russell could be priceless if this league comes down to goal difference.
