As for tackling. You may not agree but I thought we missed Alex Ray Harvey's tenacious tackling on Saturday, We need that sort of combative midfielder and I don't think Clements is one to put the foot in.

Absolutely.

It’s never as black & white as it may seem though Nige, Example, Hughesie has had his critics (& rightly so) As he seems to lack effort at times & recently when his feathers have been ruffled he (Suddenly) plays with a lot more effort & determination, To me that’s a big red flag as he has been allowed to play shed loads of games without showing the fire in his belly he is showing of late.

IMHO I would rather have a team that might lack the flair of some but fight for everything for 90 mins than have a flair team that plays whenever they fancy it, A side with shedloads of Fight, Passion & determination usually beat a team big time Charlie’s who lack the minerals.

Hughes always puts effort in, even when he was stuck out on the wing.

Correct +1
