But douglas set up a goal whereas Alioski just blasted it anywhere. Agree he is not the best left back in this league. At wolves he had so much class to aim at making him better than he actually is. Biggest waste of money is bamford Half the time he was too far back looking for the ball. No one was playing on the shoulders Could do with roofe back he can do that job.
That was the only - only - cross Douglas put in. Not one corner or free kick either. It was Harrison that forced him to do it, as Harrison chased a no-hope ball, somehow kept it in & passed to Douglas, who had no-one else to get rid to, so slung in a short cross.
I think Forshaw probably was told to play more forward,when he came on I thought what is the point of that swap as in my opinion Philips is by far the better dm,and the only reason I could think of was if he played more forward,to go for it more as we had no striker again on the bench,Brown ill again or been run out of the club.If we don't make it this season will always wonder 2 questions,would getting James over the line nice and early have pushed us on enough.And could Brown have done the same.I think yes on both counts,but lets hope,its not going to come to that.
We play a lot of the same teams as Sheffied united,just have to match them game for game,the 2 points lead makes us favourites,it's in our own hands
A lot of tough games left alright. Local derbies, relegation threatened teams and teams fighting for play off spots.
@lifecheshirewhite Chesh, seen this & thought of you as our resident cider expert. Thoughts? https://www.dailystar.co.uk/real-life/768397/brothers-cider-parma-violet-where-to-buy-new
Someone else said and I agree, the QPR defeat really hurt us, add to that the recent defeat by the Blades which was a 6 pointer, we could and should have been home and dry. I don’t believe the Blades will be the main threat for autos, I still think it will be WBA and with the new coach in charge they’re looking strong. It was not long ago I thought we’d pis the playoffs if it came to that but so many teams are suddenly hitting form, we need to get top two as the chasing pack are looking very strong
Thought Alioski was poor yesterday, Bielsa obviously did too ! Douglas only got a six from me because he out in one of our two crosses for Ayling to head home. Believe me I don't rate Douglas
