If this past few years has taught us anything, it's that the team is greater than the sum of its parts.
Appreciate I might be in a minority, but I think Osborne is more useful to us further up the pitch than playing in one of those deep roles. At least mistakes don't get quite as regularly punished, and sometimes you need the backbone of the team to be unspectacular, and the flair out wide.
Pringle is obviously popular with fans - and a great footballer in bursts - but clearly Parky doesn't see him as a starter, Osborne is very obviously ahead of him in the pecking order.
CCC does a lot of his good work out wide - he wasn't fully settled back into the club when he was used there earlier in the season.
For what it's worth, I'd still be looking to dip into the market for someone else if we have the capacity to do so.
