During the day, the MON and RK duo will be installed.
We need " professional " centre halfs and not the likes of Fox, therefore recalling Worrall makes sense.
We need to play 10 yards further forward, with a creative central midfield player, that we currently do not possess. We need to get rid of Murphy, he is immobile, has a terrible, not interested attitude, and is clearly there to see out his contract and collect his 34k per week. He was an embarrassment at Reading, and we will win few games with him in the side.
The key to the immediate future is attitude and motivation, the championship is poor, and if MON and RK get amongst them we will make the play-offs.

He is meeting with players today. Still no official statement though.

I thought Carvalho was a creative midfield player

Agree about Fox being useless as a central defender .

10 yards further forward? We have zero pace at the back. Unless we have the quality of players to keep the ball, we are wide open to counter attacks. A sweeper type keeper would help, which CP isn't. I said Villa fans thought O'Neill was long ball, if that means direct then I'm all for it. Fannying about with the ball in our half, while the opposition gets 10 men behind the ball, is a massive turn off for me. Stuff possession, more, quicker forward passes, more shots (on target) equals more goals and wins. We need to play to our strengths, which means letting the defence have the ball for the least amount of time possible. Get it forward, get it wide, get the crosses in. Put the opposition under pressure for a change. Not hopeful for the weekend, too many missing. I'll be more optimistic for the season, when we get some reinforcements in. FTID.

I don't think Worrall can be re-called, there was no option in his season long loan. Can't wait for Roy's first press conference :-)

Think it was Bob paisley who famously quoted about football styles.
"Long ball,short ball" it makes no difference as long as it's the right ball.
