    Bit of both I think. While we definitely were pushed back it definiteiy looked like there was a conscious choice as part of that too.

    It infuriates me every week that he doesn’t put a CB on the bench - one injury or a stupid red card leaves us completely exposed and throws any game plan we have out the window.

    To name as many CBs in a squad of 20x as we do keepers is criminal - you can only play 5 of the 9 subs, therefore not all of the midfielders and strikers can be used, so why not pick a CB to give you coverage and the ability to adapt to every possible scenario?

    He has got away with so far this season, and will continue to do so for 95% of games - but when it comes back to bite us, which is undoubtedly will, it’s indefensible. Especially in a must win 6 pointer at home.

    The people making the decisions are the people who thought Nathan Jones was the man to steady the ship.

    Cornet is ill, hence not being on the bench.

    Pitch looks like it's falling apart during warmup
