I'd say with our new additions over the summer TP is still tinkering and finding what our best XI is.
Looking back on our performance on Monday night I'd say Gibbs should now have cemented his place at left back, and playing two up top is definitely the way to go with this team.
Although at times he gives me the impression he's stealing a living as a footballer... Rondon has rarely played in a front 2 and I think he and Rodriguez need a run of games together as they could well form a good partnership.
That said, the realist in me expects TP will view this as must not lose instead of must win. And that approach for this season will not wash with supporters after our business in the summer window.
