Aye, our midfield options are definitely not good, too many similar types without quite enough.
The following isn’t strictly related to what you’re talking about but got me thinking of our squad over the years.
Over the past few years we’ve had a fair few players in the mould of someone with enough quality to be a fine squad depth player at this level that comes on for 15/20 minutes or fills in with the odd start who we’ve instead had to rely on to start far too often.
Cain, McEachran, Brewitt, Aguiar, Iandolo, Shade fit that mould. All capable League Two players with enough about them to warrant a squad place but for a promotion chasing side, shouldn’t get anywhere near consistently starting. Instead though we’re building squads around them rather than adding them as depth options ontop of a good enough to challenge quality first 13-15 players.
Most of that is quite obvious but when we’re talking about this squad and why it’s not clicked, alongside a poor setup and facilities, it’s mainly because for the past 2 years we’ve had a squad mainly made up of squad depth level players that will do well when added onto a capable squad but won’t ever click well enough together themselves.
