You're probably spot on there.

Yes, Fallon is still out, hopefully Nicolau will replace Pook.

Pook had a shocker on Saturday which inevitably led to Smith having to cover too much ground. In the second half with Thorpe (I think) moving to the left Smith came into the game more and look good both defensively and going forward.

If Migz is fit then he will come in at CM, Jenks may well revert back to right back, and Collins to drop to the bench.

if roberts is fit i would put him on the wing. i know he came as a striker, but i would prefer him on the wing than pook or Nicolau. also i dunno how good this  Nicolau is. maybe what i just said was stupid!

Steve Jenkins is not a central midfield player Michael Pook is.....playing him on the left its hardly surprising he didn't play too well......I once read a piece by Sturrock on what was the key to successful management.....he said he'd asked Ferguson for advice and the best thing he offered was...."don't ask people to do what they're not able to do"

 Seems pretty obvious, but if you ask Jenks to play central he'll say he can....but in fact he can't....same with Pook on the left..

 This is the worry... King seems unable to learn from past cock ups.

Lack of a midfield ball winner in the squad needs to be addressed ...

On a different note .. someone said Rossi of Man Utd might be going out on a season long loan .. should we go for him?

Plays in midfield and his name is Tommy Miller,

first touch is average but his second is a killer,

If we hava left winger in Nicola, surely he should be the one filling the left wing slot?  Just a thought.

 There's no point in panicing.....I'm not sure of the fitness levels of either, also all evidence suggests that returning players after many years away never works out.....if they come back it needs to happen quickly.

  I think King blundered by getting Thorpe and Cureton.....one Cureton would have done, this would have freed up ssome money to encourage a midfield player to come....like Junior Lewis.

Just looking at Oldham's squad on our site, how many strikers do they need?

Looks like the tribunal did them a favour when they signed Chris Porter!

Id pick this team....

Evans

Jenkins
O'Hanlon
Ifil
Nicholas (Ithought Smith was awful)

Shakes
MIGLIORANZI (I'd make him captain as well)
Whalley
Nicolau

Roberts (Just because he offeres something a little different, Thorpe and Cureton are too the same)
