    Brown has crept into mine lately so....
    Forster

    Juarez Kayal Wanyama Ledley

    Mcgeough Brown KI Ibrahim

    Forrest Commons


    Mate we could make a pretty decent Full team out of our midfield and still have a few left over:56:

    Undoubtedly on of the hardest questions to be answered these days.

    Forrest & Vic are having great seasons.

    Ledley is also have a good season, and is Mr Reliable.

    Brown drives us on as a team when he plays.

    Kayal is widely regarded as the main man in midfield.

    Commons is invaluable when he's on form.

    Samaras comes into the reckoning as well, and he's played a big part in our turnaround.

    I honestly couldn't pick as no matter what you do you are leaving out an important player.

    I went for
    Ledley Wanyama Kayal Forrest
    Just because of the balance it gives us with Izaguirre at left back.

    i'd have different midfields for home and away games

    Based on those currently fit

    away games
    Brown Wanyama Ledley Commons/Forrest

    home games
    Forrest Wanyama Ledley Commons

    European Games
    Brown Wanyama Ki Ledley Commons/Forrest

    to sum up its difficult, however i do think Brown has to play in away games for fear of us being overrun in the middle (tynecastle v hearts this is often the case)
    cant decide between Forrest and a fit Commons. Commons brings so much to the team with his movement, passing and shooting, Forrest needs to improve his movement big time (only weak facet to his game but the reason he disappears during matches)

    However i feel Brown has to be there he is always first pick when players are asked. Must bring a good team spirit and when he was out i was hoping for his return wonder if he would have been more influential at the 3-3 kilmarnock game

    Very difficult but i would go for Forrest, kayal, Wanyama, Commons.

    Pace, Strength, Athleticism and goals would come from those 4

    That's an awfy hard one tae come up with for me. At a push I would go for

    Broony - Kayal - Ledley - Commons.

    Killing me to leave oot Forrest, Vic, Sammy and to a lesser degree Ki though.
    Just shows what a wealth of choices we have in the middle of the parka dn whit a tough job Neil has each week trying to keep everyone happy with such a bunch of talented players tae pick from.

    Extremely harsh on Ledley I know, but I just feel that Kayal and Wanyama offer more. Forrest has obviously been outstanding this season and Commons showed last season what he's all about. However give that Kayal's out for the season we can just put Ledley back in to replace him.
    We could possibly have 2 midfields, that one game and then
    Brown Ledley Ki Samaras
    in a rotation system.
