We have seen he can change games, but with Murphy, Mendez, Reid, Hoilette, Ralls, Valks and others - he will have a fight on his hands to get a starting place - in my opinion.
My concern is - who is going up top, Ken ? - not unless he has finally sorted himself out, Patterson ? (only has a support option I think) , Reid ? and ANOther ?
I think we need to go and get someone as what we have , hasnt worked so far. It still baffles me how we got promoted without a recognised striker....

I think whatever happens its down to the gaffer and no one else.Tomlin still remains arguably the most technically gifted not just in our squad but in the whole division and if he's the Tomlin of old it'll be like signing the type of player we couldn't afford.

The reason Warnock didn't play him, the season he signed for us, was because of his fitness. If his fitness isnt an issue then Warnock has the player, that he intentionally signed for a reason, available for selection - he did pay 3mill for him after all.
I hope he proves everyone wrong and has a decent season for us. A fit Tomlin gives us a completely different attacking option and on his day he can create/score goals out of nothing.

and whose he going to replace in a Warnock line up? the only position I could possibly see him trusting him in is as number 10 so he leaves out Reid who he paid 12m for? he obviously wouldn't play them both.

So you think Reid will play 90 minutes of every game this season? No injuries, bans or subs?
The championship is a long and hard season. We will be playing 3 games in the space of 7 days quite often. Warnock will need to rotate and rest players throughout the season

You touched on something there that I believe was responsible for the dismal december last time we were in the championship.I certainly remember the gaffer lamenting his lack of troops because of injury,suspention and fatigue.This time around I think he's aiming to be better prepared which is why i think if Tomlin does turn it around we can expect to see him share the number 10 duties with Reid.

I think it will be Reid of Patterson as the number 10.
If Tomlin isn't playing week in week out I just don't see why anyone would think he would remain interested enough to keep the weight off.
We will see, I just think other than filling a space for preseason Warnock won't trust him again.
