James has the best chance. Evans and Derbyshire will end up being good but not good enough.

James is a fine young player but he is slow. Lack of pace let Jones down in the past, it's letting Gibson down now and I've got a nasty feeling it'll eventually be James' downfall as well. You don't need blistering pace as a CM but being downright slow is a great disadvantage.

He doesn't look that slow and to be frank I think what let Jones down was not being very strong and what lets Gibson down is his complete lack of footballing brain.

Fair enough, samabachan. Last time I really had the chance to run the rule over him was in last summers Milk Cup. Maybe he's gotten a tad quicker with more leg muscle or something, because he looked very slow then. You might have a point about Jones, but I don't agree about Gibson.

I think Drinkwater has a chance - he can pass the ball, is quite an elegant player, and has an eye for goal. Useful from dead balls too. Corry Evans is more of a battler, a la Cleverley.

I also like the look of James, and if pace is a problem, he could probably play at the back.

Corry Evans has versatility on his side. could end up seeing him doing an O'Shea type role.

Decent player but doesn't seem to have his bro's ability.
