Is going to cost us dear... (Yes, I've taken a snippet of this from another thread)
All this left winger must defend bollocks is a complete myth, 1) the person who does it isn't actually that good at it anyway and 2) It's sacrificing an attacking position, pretty much signalling the intent we don't want to attack much and we're happy to invite teams onto us.
For me this is one of the main reasons things go wrong, we're not that bad, we don't need to set up as defensive as we do, we have a back four and three in central misfield as it is, is that not enough? Good grief, we're not going to win many matches against top half teams without actually attacking.
We have capable attacking players although for some reason they don't get a run after one below par performance whilst others that continually perform averagely keep getting picked time and time again, take Tuesday night for instance, more attacking/less defensive set up, win 2-0, alright it wasn't impressive but we beat a team who won on the road at a top team just days before, then what happens Saturday? Back to normal.
I eagerly await the piss off replies but that's how I see it right now.
