Koren

I think a lot of people are getting carried away with Korens performance. We made a point of watching him and he made virtually no tackles and his pass completion rate was no where near what Cairneys is. He did have two or three good strikes at goal the one that was saved, the guy in front of me claimed received a deflection?
I missed that. For a large part of the game we often bypassed midfield and lumped the ball straight up to Waghorn. And towards the end Cardiff were bossing midfield partly due to Korens( and evans) failings. Evans gave the ball away 3 times in the space of a few minutes when Cardiff were on top.

The first 20 mins we were pretty poor and we thought we were badly missing Cairney and Mckenna as there seemed nothing in midfield.

with the likes of mclean, pusic, cairney, evans , barmby creating more options

did we play 4-3-3 today? that may have helped.


PS: i don't wanna be negative but it is worrying to see the lack of backup at the back. the back four is nicely tuned now, losing a player and only having someone like mcshane or sonny bradley as backup is worrying

I see what your saying but unfortunately we aren't a top half of the table premiership team yet where a couple of decent defenders would be happy to sit on the bench for months. I just hope Mcshane is happy as I can see him getting itchy feet and wanting to move in January to get game time otherwise his international career will suffer.
