I think this is our strongest XI.
Re: the midfield debate, I've only seen flashes of Whitehead but I know Pringle has been absolutely excellent on occasion, the best person on the pitch - seems to be quite inconsistent but I think a lot is down to fitness combined with the type of game he plays - when he's been taken off after an hour he's often been blowing and seems to fade a fair bit.
Wouldn't be averse to seeing half and half - this seemingly modern world phenomenon of bringing players on to change games, with 85 minutes gone, does my nut in.
I haven't seen enough from Whitehead to suggest he is what we need. Potter certainly isn't up to it and Pringle gives the ball away way too often and is way too lightweight. Our best midfield paring this season has been Furman and Moult.
Everything else is spot on though
