I don’t think it’s so much a case of all the central midfielders being poor, it’s just a very poor balance. Beestin, Hornshaw, Vincent and Spence are all defensive midfielders. Pugh and Raynner silva are both kids so there’s only Taylor who is something different but he’s even more suited playing in the no 10 role.
Throw into the mix we have an abundance of wide players. This is what you get when you have your chairman and whoever else keep picking players. A daft, unbalanced squad.
