Imo, Greenwood is a much better LB than Stokes. Stokes had more pace than Alex from what I remember. If Stokes has lost a few steps, we definitely need someone else to put in at CB and play Alex on the left. Isn't one of the new Australian players a CB?We need a centre back to partner Houghton and then Greenwood can challenge Stokes for the left back spot.
It did yes, we dropped a few points in games we 'should' have won which then meant we were playing catch up.Didn't a slow start cost us last season.
Hopefully we can can have a good start this time.
A dreadful draw v Reading and we were chasing CFC. Mind, they lost to one of the trap door contenders, and I think we also buggered up the home game v CFC. From that game last night the last couple of seasons it's been like watching a game but not in real time - slowed down by a few frames. Things should improve with Hemp on one wing, Kelly on 'tother, and some robustness in midfield. There are injury issues and players get put where they fit best, but when the team is up to strength pursuing the same possession-based tactics at a snail's pace isn't gonna bear much fruit. There are only two or three teams who have the wherewithal to win the title, and slip up once and it could be curtains.Didn't a slow start cost us last season.
Hopefully we can can have a good start this time.

Yeah, two cracking goals that should have knocked the stuffing out of the Rags but it just filled MCWFC with complacency.2-0 up at half time against the Ragettes away, then ended up drawing.
Think that was what really cost us the title.
I see the bbc have united top of the league already, I bet if they'd lost reading wouldn't have been top, as there obviously wouldn't have been a table after one game.
