Are  problems are not caused by having 3 centre backs. More of a change to a 3412 system. We don't seem to have someone to hold the ball up, clee is far better on the left, not through the midldle. Last season we played quite successfully with a back 3. With two attacking wingers and one up front. Today we are not playing as a team, no one is communicating and the guys seem to give up when they make a mistake.

Agree we need 4 at the back at least until we have a squad back together again and fit.

After looking pretty good in pre season, it's clear that Joseph either isn't interested or isn't good enough.

Williams looks lost without a talker next to him and Smith despite being our best defender, isn't a good talker.

Brown doesn't look fit.....

I won't go on, because I'm making myself depressed writing this....

Didn't Holmes play at centre back in pre-season?

Maybe it would be worth giving him another go there?
