Blacker used to be a forward, but should now be considered a central midfielder.
With no Arblaster & Hamer we have no creativity in there .. we still need an another centre mid player & a centre back . As well as missing Souttar’s physical presence we are missing him as an organiser at the backWe had no midfield, or better put we had no leader, no one skilled enough to put their foot on the ball and use it wisely and sad to say, no one quick enough or brave enough to try and win the second ball against a bottom 3 team. Square pegs in round holes, no idea what Wilder's expectation was because it failed at Swansea and it was even worse tonight. Hopefully Vini's fit now and Burrows moves back wide. Peck can do the scrapping and the runners can run.
Bar from a 10 minute spell we were woeful and bottom line, we're fucked at the back without a Soutts type, fucked whenever Gilchrist plays and unless BBD suddenly learns how to control a football in 5 touches or less are in danger of blowing this.
If we get everyone back and the tinkering stops we should be good enough but even with the signings, we're nowhere even close to being a Premier League team.

Brooks was literally our best player v Liverpool in CM last season.
Would Blacker be worse than playing a LB at centre mid?
We play a 4-2-3-1, with the "2" being two of Souza, Arblaster, Peck, Davies or Shackleton. We've never started O'Hare, Brewster, Brooks or JRS there. We've not even started Hamer there, who has previously played that role.
Has he been playing as a CM for the academy? I don't watch much so dunno, have just heard he's a forward.
I would assume so, yeah. Would you be surprised if Blacker was playing in the National League North in a few years? What makes you confident he's a Championship or even League 1 level midfielder?
Blacker used to be similar to Marsh. He's been retrained and although it took him some time to adapt, he's improved tremendously the last year or so. Blacker and Aston have formed a great midfield partnership for the U21s.

Wooo go Zipwire. Congrats on being right. Go zipwire!!! Three cheers for zipwire! Hip hip...
The difference is, I'm not claiming Burrows is a midfielder, whereas you seemed to be trying to argue that Brewster and Blacker are
Hull are far from a bottom three side, yes they were under the previous manager but they have decent players and a new manager who knows what he is doing. I expected a tough game tonight but didn't expect Wilder to drop so many bollocks and give Hull a helping hand.
We play with two 6s and one 10. O'Hare was playing as the 10 as he has done for most of the season.
Maybe, who knows. Another poster above has suggested we underestimated them, but you're saying we should've played another 10.
