Dan Agyei must be given the chance at Burton, should have been on at Cambridge to open up a good looking defence

Got to question your descriptions of both players, sorry. Agyei has the strength to hold up play, with the ball and either, lose his man and carry on or, lay off the ball to any advancing team mate. Winnall is more of a static player best suited to being on the receiving end of a pass where he can turn and shoot or head for goal. What he doesn't have (or at least has not demonstrated) is the ability to throw his weight around. He's tried that and loses out.Winnall and Agyie are 2 completely different players for a start.
In a game that you need a player throw his weight around, hold the ball up and win flick ons then you bring Winnall on. Agyie is pace and power.
I would also put Bodin above Agyie.

I'm not going to say that one is better than the other, they have different attributes and suit different game plans, and opposition tactics. On Saturday, against Cambridge, Winnall was the wrong choice.
You really weren't there, were you. he went to trap the ball and fell over, then, getting lucky, the ball went in the direction of Whyte who collected and, sadly, mistimed his cross and the ball swept past the far post.The chance that lead to Whyte shooting rather than lay the ball off for two to tap in. A clearance is pumped forward and Winnall is 8/9 yards off the centre back before running on to it and out-muscle Jones (?) to lay the ball off to Whyte and effectively gave us a 3 on 1 situation. So there is at least one example of Winnall throwing his weight about, and one that should have put the game to bed.
Funny how events can be interpreted to suit an agenda; Winnall clearly holds off the defender and deliberately lays it off to Whyte, as he is falling. Good hold up play by a centre forward , surely that is blatantly obvious, rather than him âgetting lucky!âYou really weren't there, were you. he went to trap the ball and fell over, then, getting lucky, the ball went in the direction of Whyte who collected and, sadly, mistimed his cross and the ball swept past the far post.
If you are really attempting to show that one incident as an example of Winnall being something special, forget it.
Proof of the pudding: About 1:15 in.
