Christ that second goal they had not one but two players in the nautical mile gap between our defenders.
What’s he supposed to do when Figueiredo is slipping all over the place and Alfie Jones and Cannon are trying to nutmeg the opposition in our own half like they’re Ronaldinho and failing?
The one playing tonight isn’t. Cannon has to take about 5 touches else he ****s himself and boots it without looking. Jones is playing cack. Only Slater is capable of retaining possession well and playing quick passes but his mates Tufan and Seri are injured.
And still we insist on playing out from the back. We haven't got the players to do it and it was bound to cost us at some point. Don't know about others but I can't stand it when we mess around with 6 passes in our own 18 yard area. We are not Man City and we don't have to try to be like them. That said I suspected a defeat when I saw the team sheet - but how we have contributed to our own downfall
Worst defence in the league. What’s scary is Norwich and Preston both we were fortunate not to concede 4 or 5 to. We couldn’t argue if we found ourselves on 20+ goals conceded currently.
