I don't know how we would cover his position - perhaps with Clut or Nordstrand, but what would people think about trying Andrew Nabbout through the middle? I think he has the finishing to be a central striker and his pace would cause trouble.

I think he would struggle being up there on his own but could be effective if we played 2 upfront with someone to run off
Not sure if he has the movement or game smarts to pull it off, I think he gains a lot from the big spaces he is afforded out wide. But could be worth a try.
I would always prefer to have a winger like Nabbout playing to his strengths - isolating defenders out wide and running at people - not spraying passes from the middle.
that's a good point. Just one of the ponderings I've had, I guess.

It's a good point but when you have a manager who plays people out of position often, it's hard not to think outside the box.
Can you name the Jets manager that didn't play people out of position ? I mean it's a bit rough blaming Jones when most clubs do it and it's probably due to limited squads numbers. And in the case of the Jets our unusually high injury toll probably exacerbates the issue.
I wasn't blaming Jones. I was suggesting as you said.... we have always had a manager who played out of position players, so why shouldn't fans start thinking the same?
TBH I found one of Scott Miller's managerial strengths was playing players to their positions, and known capabilites (capabilities being a huge one). I think I liked Miller so much because he was the inverse of GVE.
OK
What positions ? He parked the bus 90% of the time.
Which was the capabilites of the squad he had to work with
OK
The other 10% was giving it to Triff, who then scored, but didn't assist anyone, so we fired his unassisting ass.
Ahh Triff. The penalty taker specialist
Bring back Triff. Penalties or not. Only stat that matters. ****ing love the trif. And his mrs
Was tossed cos Griff said so.....I quote from the Griffstream podcast, "why would you re-sign him"?
But yes, hawt wifey.
