... herd isn't good enough in my view. He's ok if you want to play a kick and rush style, but I can't see him figuring in Lambert's possession based game
Err, I don't think Herd is a hacker or a hoofer, particularly. In fact, I remember a number of rather neat passes from the lad last season. He needs to be in the MF at the moment, because it seems we are expecting KEA to do all the strong-arm stuff. Herd alongside KEA and Delph would - IMO - produce a very sold platform on which to build.
