"we didn't think MJ Williams, Alex Gilbey, Dawson Devoy or Ethan Robson would ever get injured so we sold Matt Smith"

Honestly, playing 3 CM's and only having 1 spare is a bit of a braindead decision isn't it?

Possibly, but when you consider Grant can play in midfield too I think we're fine.

It definitely doesn't mean we should've kept Smith

He's not but he can fill in and you can adjust it and give him freedom to move forward more than Robson or Gilbey do. Which, btw, I've seen plenty of forward momentum from both so far.

And Grant can be freed up to bomb forward. Smith couldn't do anything.
