It's always amazing how differently we see football. You have one of the most positive views on Varane I've read. My opinion of him is very much at odds with yours.
He is slow in making decisions on the ball which usually results in him having to pass backwards and sometimes getting caught in possession. He's no better than Field in the tackle and can often be clumsy. Overall, his standard of play has dropped quite alarmingly this season and at 24 he should have shown improvement not gone backwards.
Like many on here, I'd take St Etienne's offer in a heartbeat as long as there was an obligation to buy at the end of the season.
I also like Morrison and don't understand why some are negative about him. He's calm on the ball, good positionally and reads the game well. His relatively slight physique is something he can work on. He's still only 22.
For me the only real negative has been his injury record, but that's something that's an issue for plenty of other players in the squad.
Burrell being out is certainly an opportunity for Kolli and Bennie. But, it's also the time for Kone to step up and start scoring again.
I hope he's put firmly in the lead striker's position because he scores when he's central and in the box. Perhaps a formation change back to 4231 will be needed.
Only a single mention of Ben Williams thus far. How much blame should he shoulder for the four players lost in one game. As Danny P highlights, some players have been flogged to death. Others have hardly got going due to ongoing fitness issues.
