    Would've said midfield a few months back, but he's really growin into his role at the back. Keep him there I say!

    I'd have him at centre back. We have a lack of cover in midfield at the moment and he would do a fine job there too I would think but, as it stands, he is doing too well at centre back to even contemplate moving him.

    Been so long since he played centre midfield i can't remember how he played there.

    Has he played in midfield under Dolan yet?

    Pairing

    Benno and Murray are playing very well together, we've let in 12 goals, which is quite good for a new partnership.

    They're both great passers of the ball too, remember the Hoof days of Deccie and Derek.
    Oh no not them again

    We have to keep him in defence. What's the alternative?
    Daly?

    This is a position we could do with a bit of cover in.

    He plays good football out of the back and is very strong in the air. I think his composure at centre back has also rubbed off on the other 3 who play in the back with him and they are a very strong unit now.

    Keep him at the back

    Why tamper with a good defensive partnership. Keep him where he is.
    I'm gonna take a blow torch to everyone who writes "any info on......." on the desks in the ucc library.

    Who's with me

    Have never been certain about Bennett at centre-half but he has done really well this season. My one problem with him was the timing of some of his tackling, but that has improved no end.
