At the moment, David Brooks can't get a start in our team. So I think Thomas is way down the pecking order isn't he? It's going to need a change of approach from Wilder and Knill before we see Brooks or Thomas getting a start. At the present time, we play without pace. It's not considered important. We prefer a slow, methodical, neat little passing game, where we work our way slowly down the pitch and end up somewhere near the corner flag or around the edge of the box, looking for the absolutely perfect killer pass into the box. We don't do ripping teams apart with barnstorming runs from the half-way line or deeper. Don't get me wrong, I love the football we play mostly, it's the best I've seen for years - but I do think we need to mix it up a bit more and get some bloody pace in that team, especially up front. Almost 70% possession yesterday v Brum - and just 2 shots on target - same as them! Brooks and Carruthers both added a bit of zip to that team when they came on yesterday and it's about time one or both of them got a start.
