repman 636 Posted January 28 Just now, Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man said: I'm a big Kenny fan, but what was he doing there? Did someone tell him they were giving out free Buckfast on the halfway line? It’s his single biggest weakness imo. Jumps out of his position far too often as the nominal DM. It’s just not his game more than anything, he sees the ball and immediately thinks of taking it up the pitch, a more defensively minded player would be a bit more cautious.

Dean Coneys boots 1,407 Posted January 28 So bad in defence - it really is keystone cops. It isn’t going to be pretty if they don’t sort themselves out - I’ve never known a city side give away possession so cheaply 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 3,865 Posted January 28 OK, we're not playing well, but ultimately we're 2-1 down away to the Premier League leaders with a mostly reserve team out there. I dread to think what we'd be like if we were 2-1 down at home to a team from the sixth tier... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canario 208 Posted January 28 4 minutes ago, Petriix said: Though I think he's had a good game, if anyone wants an example of why I don't like McLean as a defensive midfielder, that goal is it. He was perfectly positioned to defend that attack but just charged out, straight past the ball and left the hole for Liverpool to exploit. I know these are top players, but that's absolutely amateur positioning. Also shows the positive of having a midfielder sit in front of the defence. A base to the midfield. Even in a diamond we'd have more defensive cover than two cms wandering all over the place Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Worthy Nigelton 1,077 Posted January 28 This is not on Wagner. How can he legislate for Stacey being out of position for the first goal and McLean deciding to run out of the way for the second? I know we're probably overplaying it in our own half against a much better team but it's individual mistakes for the goals. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
