I think Ox will make a big difference for us once back. He offers something from the middle of the park that we don't really have in any of the other midfielders in being a threat through the middle and getting off shots from distance. His very presence means the opposition has to at least think a little more about being more compact in central areas, which of course, frees up the wide areas a bit more, and we all know how much we need the space out there. In those games where we can't get through it will be players like Ox that will make the difference, either directly, or indirectly.
