A Holding Midfielder


Ekwah was clearly signed to add to the options we already had, not to replace Evans. That transfer has been in the pipeline for a while.

So based on our own plan, we're now a key midfielder light.
Not necessarily. Even if Evans is out for the season we have Ekwah, Neil, Michut, Ba, Pritchard, and Onien, who could all play there - and Embleton, at a push. Neil, Ekwah, and Michut could all operate as the deeper, holding player.

There's also Matete if needs be, to be recalled - although we won't want to be doing that.

Plymouth fans are raving about a young lad that plays there atm, they say he’s like Roy Keane on steroids. Matatie or summit, worth a bid.
I think he's staying at Plymouth for now. Evans has he's contract expiring and jay should be a regular starter at holding midfield next year providing ekwah doesn't tear up trees for the remainder of this season.
 
I watched the one where the opponent's got a player sent off early so our two central midfielders held their line further forward. But they still held it.
Neil played deeper and Michut further forward.

Neil was going absolutely beserk with Michut for not tracking his runner back on a good few occasions.

I think when Michut first came on he was in a more traditional holding midfield position. When Boro went down to 10 he sat further up and possibly lost a little discipline and went looking for a goal.
 
We need both Ekwah and Ba in alongside Neil before michut
No we dont , we have to be fully sure of what michut can do . Neil will hold , Ba will wait on the bench behind michut, the new kid will replace Pritchard by and by but be on the bench for a few week .
