How ironic, I said we were a soft touch in the match day thread and people disagreed and now Wilson has said the same thing.
Teams have found us out now and figured out that if they get in our faces and bully us then they take away the majority of our threat. We definitely lack physical presence at times and it really needs addressing as we need to be able to bully the opposition when we need to.

One person disagreed with you. You want to be careful with that persecution complex.

I think today's problem was more to do with desire. We never looked hungry to win the ball, players were rarely getting into good positions to receive passes, and we generally never looked like we were trying to win the game after they scored. Maybe strength comes in to it too, but I think our biggest problem today was players letting the game pass them by.

I think the desire and strength come hand in hand sometimes the likes of Ball are scared to go in hard on 50/50's the amounts of challenges we bottle at time are criminal. Paynter was the impitimy of this he was a real nuisance striker constantly leaving his foot in and giving defenders a hard time. We seem to be lacking things like that at the moment, Pericard is big but he doesn't put himself about. I think Prutton would of been ideal for today although he'd probably of got sent off.
