For me our best player and certainly most talented but I'm not sure we dont look better and more balanced without him. Its a tricky one. Not sure what our best option is. I guess it depends on who we're playing.

I guess it depends on who we're playing. Can only really play in a 4231 to be most effective and balanced as a team. Hopefully once we have built up a head of steam MON will revert to that and we can get him involved and playing.

He is a vital player for us but it’s good we’re not depending on him too much, contract up at the end of the season. Should hopefully get that sorted

Straight in for Brown imo but good to have a genuine alternative or 2.

I guess it depends on who we're playing. It's a tricky one because I think we should really use that front 3 as much as we can. That pace around Fletcher's strength and experience will trouble most opponents and will bring goals to the team. Brown will improve with games I am sure but it worked really well today against a good team. Good to hear MON praising that front 3

I guess it depends on who we're playing. Your last sentence is it. Today wasn’t really a game for him but in games where we need to pick a few locks - and there will be plenty of them - he’ll be vital.

Skill full player no doubt but I think he slows the game down with all his falling down antics. We looked so sharp against Brentford with Campbell and Brown pushing up and playing at such a fast pace they couldn’t cope with it.

Once the players develop a bit more experience playing together, Powell has the vision to make some excellent passes for the likes of Fletcher and Campbell to run on to.

Need to play the team suited to beating the opposition. If Powell isn’t in it then so be it but I’m sure he will play in more games than not, particularly against teams that are likely to defend deep. Brown was ideal yesterday.

The team needs to be built around Nick Powell....not him fitting into it

Powell is a very important player for us imo
MON possibly hoping to rest Powell, Campbell and Fletcher midweek and put out the strongest possible 11 on saturday
Hoping that Clucas will be fit enough to return
Bit of a blow regarding Davies injury
To be fair to Gunn, the very short back pass to him that was then handled - cant have done much for his confidence

I'm sure MON has the tactical nous to select either a pace based attack (e.g. the front three which featured against Brentford) or one which has Powell at 10. Horses for courses and all that.

I sometimes think he drifts in and out of games. He certainly draws a lot of fouls but sometimes his flicks and back heals are wasted - though that might be because our other players are not on his wavelength.

He certainly draws a lot of fouls but sometimes his flicks and back heals are wasted - though that might be because our other players are not on his wavelength. Don’t get me wrong I completely agree he absolutely drifts in and out of games and can be wasteful/too inventive. But he gets labelled with the same criticism as Arnie. Lazy, wasteful and uninterested. Which I don’t actually think is correct (both Powell and Arnie). The one thing I’ve been most impressed with about Powell is his work rate. His flicks, I think are abit of the players not on his wavelength as you said, also trying to over complicate things out of the box. But I’m happy for that trade off as sometimes they do come off.
