    If you were Hudsper, how would you fill the H/mid role? The names mentioned a lot on here are Nelsen and Reyes. I'd like to add into that Prideaux. Since I think playing Reyes in holding mid would take away from his wonderful wing play, I'd rather not play him there. And because I absolutely love Nelsen as a center back, I want him to stay there. So I would like to see Prideaux here considering Hudson will likely play Petke in the back, thus possibly jeapordizing Prideaux's starting role. Personally, I think Prideaux could fill this role. He's got the speed and tenacity, he's an excellent man-marker, his positional play is good, he's never injured, very durable and has great fitness, and he's got decent foot skills. Since we'll likely take Esky with #1, or Hudsper will light a cherry bomb in DCU's shoes by trading #1 and/or #5 for Stoichkov :( , I doubt we'll fill this role with the draft. And because we all know absolutely nothing about Ivanov, we shouldn't yet be talking about him playing there.



    P.S. - About getting Stoichkov, I'm not totally against it or anything, I'm just against it at the expense of our first four draft picks.
