Driving around today, I remembered this thread to savour it.  Those two sentences, "Gray, Withe, Benteke, Davis. No pressure there then."  are among the most memorable you have ever written Mr Woodhall.

The team does seem to play more as a team without Kodjia and Davis upfront. But I think when the chance comes for them to play together, with the former drifting in from the left, it should be enough to terrify most of this league.
