“ Is it time to play Grant through the middle? “

In the time he played through the middle today, Karlan Grant was brilliant.

Scored one goal and had a big impact in the other.

It changed the game.

Is it time Bulut considered playing him through him the middle from the start?

Worth trying him through the middle.

If not, at least he interchanges with the number 10 so he gets moments there.

Funny comments from some people though not long ago saying Bulut is tactically inept….

We could give it a shot, but both West Brom and Huddersfield fans were adamant he was not a number 10 and much better on the left.

Think we'd miss his workrate out wide if he was moved.

Not when Odowda is fit.

Said this to my mate game change when Grant played in the middle, if you watch most games there's a gaping hole in the middle he filled that, we had runners left and right when going forward such a difference

Problem we currently have with grant in the middle is less cover and ability on the left. But yeah he did well and again gave 100%

I don’t think he can play the 10 role, but I think we could try him as the central striker…

Try him down the middle as a striker, but combine it with Meite wide right. Meite was switched wide right for the last 20 in a recent game-can’t remember which- and he caused all sorts of problems.

Hurrah at last!

He played there for WBA & Huddersfield scored a bucketful. Long overdue and lord knows why it's
taken so long to try him where he scores...Centrally

Well done KG it went in off his 'arris but who cares!? :bluescarf:
