Josh, isn't 'a defensive midfield playmaker' a contradiction in terms ?  

I have always thought a 'playmaker' was defined as an attacking midfield role not defensive. Yacob is having an excellent season and is very good at stifling and breaking up opposition attacks although I do agree, he is limited in terms of passing and creativity. Fletcher is getting no younger and cover in the DM department is needed.

That said, we need to solve the RB and LB positions although Alan Nyom has done well apart from a couple of indifferent games plus being played out of position. We must also address our aging centre-halves who cannot go on forever. That plus an attacking mid-fielder and also cover for Rondon should be looked at as I don't think Hal Robson-Kanu will make the Premiership standard and of course, with any luck, Sado will be shown to his taxi.

Perhaps I'm ask too much !!!
