Huws and Butterfied

[shinner]

Two names that are free agents and have league one experience. I know they probably want to play in a higher league but we did tempt Mullin .
Although l love Young’s undoubted commitment he does look lost , and in any other team would probably be dropped.

Are they defensive midfield types?

I'm luke youngs number 1 fan, and he would be much more suited to the advanced positions occupied by JJ and Davies (note his role in the build up on tuesday). He is playing in the defensive mid spot because he is the only one we have who can 'do a job there'. we need a specialist, with Young playing there on occassion.

Hinckley number 9 etc

From what I have seen this season, Luke Young simply cannot do a job in the defensive midfield spot.

A square peg in a round hole, but not his fault as I like him.

Yes exactly this, looks like we might have missed out on this player in the window and hoping that Young can do it (which he can't).

It would be Dave Jones for me at the moment, with Young/Davies/JJ/Mcalinden in the other two spots.

Jay Harris would be a good punt in the next transfer window.
I dunno why people keep dismissing him when he could easily be a squad player.

Huws isn't really a holding mid. Good passer etc but not the ball winning type we need in the middle.
Don't know much about Butterfield

And he's not played for how long?

Luke Young isn't good enough for a promotion chasing team, and our midfield really is 1-2 short. That said, punting on Emyr Huws (who really is made out of glass) or a guy who has been playing in Australia is almost certainly not the answer.

Hopefully we'll have two tenacious midfielders lined up for January and Luke Young can fade away.
