Saying Pearson is on £1500-£1600 a week so Beavon more than that for 30 minutes of running around.

Beavon maybe our highest paid player but that doesn't mean were actually paying him those wages. We will only be paying a percentage to offset the loan and Coventry have to pay the remainder. I cannot see that we would pay out a huge amount on a loan player who was surplus to requirements.

It might be worth having a chap who’s taller than 5’7” leading the line. I can’t bemoan his effort and industry but you can’t help but think a more physically dominant player would suit us better.

Might be worth also signing a striker who can play for more than 70 minutes.

Crazy idea, I know.

AA, whilst size is important I think that the problem we have is if were going to play 433 then we need to build a forward line with players who understand what this means. For me it means all 3 being interchangeable like we had with Wright, Pogba, Speight. No-one took a fixed position and quite often Wright would be wide left, Pogba right and Speight down the middle and variations of this.

Obviously a fit Beavon or younger version would fit quite well with 2 others but they all need a bit of pace about them. Not convinced Oswell has any pace but maybe that's because of his groin strain

Having 3 up front means a narrow midfield 3 and its therefore important the 2 FBs can push forward and overlap but for me they both lack pace.

433 starts to bring in more complicated thoughts on the formation which is why I think 442 is simpler and more effective in this league. Otherwise we have to start playing like Liverpool.

The formation is the formation! It’s up to the manager to make it work and us as fans have very little influence. As supporters, were clouded by what formations have worked for us in the past; namely 3-5-2 and 4-3-3. Hughes must have an idea of how he wants to set up and then recruit accordingly.

Here's hoping.

Quality is the main thing, good players should be able to operate in more than one formation. I do agree though; decide on a way of playing then recruit to that, at least it gives a starting point.

That's been the case for many years at Wrexham, the trouble is Hughes will interview a 5ft 9 player and he will look like a giant next to him and Brian Flynn

Nail on head. Love to see a 433 as above. Mobile forwards, decent midfield and useful full backs.
Wake me up if it happens!
