    I don't think Reid plays that well out wide though, doesn't have a lot of pace, I guess if you have Finnan overlapping then Reid could cut inside and that might work.
    Anyway what age is Finnan, around 31? still a bit young for a defender to retire isn't it.
    I doubt Carsley will stick around, I think his age was showing in the last 2 games but I'm glad he came back and had one last run in the team

    says on eleven-a-side that Kilbane will consider his future at the end of the campaign. I hope he continues, if one of our most committed players steps aside, it will be easier for others to do it. Besides if he continues to play left back for Wigan, he could be the best short term soloution for that position. I get a nasty feeling we may be approaching a John Toshack situation where a lot of players dont want to play for the manager and we get premature retirements.
