From what I've seen of Pratley he wasn't terrible but he didn't do anything. I've not seen a huge amout of Swansea but you could imagine him in their system, but it sounds like he wasn't a starter for them either. If you have a team of players who are all winning the ball and capable of being creative you could maybe carry a mover/recycler. That's been a problem of ours this season though. We start the match carrying SKD, then someone gets sent off so we're effectively only 9 men, including Knight and Robbo, if you throw Pratley into that scenario it doesn't look good. Not necessarily his fault, it's just how he plays.

I'd love to see some res/youth players coming through but when I saw our reserves play York in pre-season whoever we had a LB wasn't particularly on fire for that game. What happened to Vela? O'Halloran given a chance up front, off the bench maybe? Don't we have a decent reserve CB we could try?

Stick six defenders in our box to just keep wellying it forward and put N'gog, Klasnic, KD and Tuncay up front. 4-0.

Surely him not starting would shorten the odds?! We'd have more chance of winning anwyay..

Hehe. I'm just saying I've seen him in a few games and he's done the same thing every time. It's more OC's fault for putting him on the pitch as that's obviously his M.O.
