Today pretty much confirmed my suspicions: Barnes - Rodriguez - Gayle - Phillips is one of the best forward lines in the division, and they'll rip most defences to shreds... as long as they can get the ball. If we're losing the battle in the middle of the park twice a week then it's going to be an uphill struggle. Got to conjure something from somewhere.
With the defence, I'd give it at least six more weeks before panicking. Let them play together a few more times; if we're still shipping goals at the end of September, then we can worry.
