Also our fullbacks bomb on an awful lot and asking one player to fill in and cover aren’t going to happen leaving us very exposed down the flanks. Adding to this further Robo and O'Shea isn’t going to any extra defensive work either.
I can see what you are trying to do (we have an obvious overload of talented attacking midfielders that's it's hard to leave anybody out), and as a plan b it could be a very viable option, but not as a starting line up with the personnel you penned in, imo.

Look at Bank's strenghts (of which strenght is one of them)..
Excellent eye for a pass (simple and difficult)
Eye for goal
Excellent control
Mobile
Helps out with the dirty stuff
Not afraid to get stuck in
Tackles well
Great feet for a big guy
He's got everything a good midfielder needs (but I can't get him in the side and that frustrates the life out of me as he should be).

And there's Bolly yet that we haven't really seen anything of. Sounded something else away at Scunny in the JPT.

He showed yesterday he can step up if Morsy or Ryan are out. I'm not going to pick a hypothetical first choice starting XI because it depends on form and other variables. I'd guess Gardner wouldn't be in many peoples' XIs but he's had no chance to force his way in yet this season, so who knows what our best team is?

My favourite three town players are Morsy, Johnson and Banks. They have everything and more a midfielder should have at our level, with at least two having the 'more' bit!
I'm a town fan that doesn't quite remember the Cox years with a side that was all about the quality in midfield. Okay, we've had a few decent midfielders down the years since (Robinson, Dutch, Ebdon etc), but not all at the same time and none (imo) with the obvious talent that could see them go all the way as we have now.
I can't describe how I feel about our midfield as I seriously have to keep pinching myself that it's actually ours and it's happening I'm telling ya, the young uns today don't know how good they've got it

No Johnson? (we've seriously got to do everything we can to sign that lad!)
Edit: Otherwise I'm not far off where you're at

Ollie Banks was awesome yesterday. Passing range, trickery, demanding the ball in tight positions and protecting it. He is a big player. Reminded me of Tony Curry.

Lee
Darikwa Evatt Hird Jones
Ryan Morsy
O'Shea Johnson Roberts
Doyle
Very hard to leave out Banks who I'm a big fan of. But with the form Johnson is in and Roberts (pre injury), the intelligence of that attacking 4 mean is unreal. With the option of Banks, Gardner or Gboly to follow from the bench is a great headache for the manager to have.
Armand whilst often criticised has been great this season so far - his impact from the bench has been noticeable

....very exciting, but no goal threat compared to Banks and Roberts. I'm almost hoping Villa recall him so that our problem is diminished. Ironically, that might be the best route to us getting him permanently in the future.The midfield 3 has to be Jayo, Banks, Roberts when everybody is fit because we can't keep relying on Doyle for goals. Then PC has got Gardner, Armand, Clucas none of whom are going to be happy for long on the bench. Something has to give.
