I'm not a fan of spearing, but if our only other option is to put Adam there he might be our best choice atm. I dont like to see Gerrard in that position as he tends to drop so deep when he plays there. We need him further up the pitch.
The other option is to use Henderson there. He hasnt exactly impressed anyone yet but he is young and can improve. I think he is more suited to a central role instead of beeing pushed out wide.
