Perhpaps the area of the team with the least amount of certainty, and with the most options.

Assuing we play with 2 CMs, who would be your combination?

Osbourne & Thornhill for me.

Osbourne is an easy choice - was struggling a bit with the second. I think Thornhill is the most creative of the rest and will still come good.

I think the centre mid dilemma is only there because playing only two is the problem.

Most teams in the SPL play one main striker being supported from the wings and a three man midfield which is why we struggle to dominate games.

My first chioice three man midfield would be Osbourne, Pallson & Wotherspoon with Pallson primarily sitting and Osbourne & Wotherspoon looking to get on the ball and take it forward. I also think that a three man midfield would suit the likes of Stevenson, Thornhill, Welsh & Horner.

It also means that you can really use the pace & trickiness of Sproule, Galbraith & Griffiths higher up the pitch. I also think that in O'Connor, Agogo & Soje we have three strikers that are all capable of leading a line well.
