A bit harsh to go in behind, but you can't defend like that. I'm inclined to think that's more down to the manager/training than personnel.

Watching on ifollow in LA. Much better product than last year.

Take the stupid goal out and it’s pretty cagey between two half decent teams. The goal was so shit though.

Anderson looks lively, Alzate so comfortable, McGlashan lively and direct. Rico missed a sitter and Doughty quiet. Nelson just kicks and heads everything (apart from the corner) but Lancs is so so dodgy.

If it was 0-0 it’d be a fair performance. It’s not though.

 i find it hard to believe that a professional team is not coached to have someone before the near post specifically to block those balls - it was under head height.  The fact that we had someone do that exact job from their next corner suggests to me that someone forgot to do their job.

Possibly Smiths poorest game so far for me, not won his tackles and been wayward up front.

Anderson has had a few chances but still wants too man touches all the time, Alzate can be frustrating at times, looks similr to Anderson in taking too many touches or too much time making his mind up.

Doughty has not been great either by his high standards.

McGlashan has the beating of Lewington every time he has the ball and looks up for it.

I would get Smith and Anderson off, sit McCourt further back and push Bayo up front and play 442.

Nelson and Knoyle grow stronger in every game, Lancashire can't defend and Taylor is a passenger so far.

Just looked at the goal again. Guess who lost the runner he was supposed to be marking?

Taylor has turned to Candy Floss.  He's not being put under any pressure defensively due to their formation and desire to defend, but he's offered nothing going the other way when he has a rare game of not having to worry about what is behind him. His touch has been poor and he isn't offering himself like Knoyle does.  Part of that issue is Anderson I think he goes AWOL, whereas McGlashan holds his position doubling up on the right.  I'd bring Adebayo on and have him linger out left, coming in when the ball is on the right to provide support to Richards.  He'd cause enough of a distraction to release Taylor wider.

It shouldn't even have reached the 6 yard box.

Taylor fluffs a cross from the deadball line after a nice move.

It was actually quite a clever/risky corner. They only had one man in the six-yard box, and four more coming in from the edge of the 18-yard box. It was put in to the front post, and would have come to nothing if Lancashire hadn't been left for dead by his runner.

Doughty seems to have pushed up almost alongside Richards.

Anderson wastes a shot in a good positon.

So far the ref seems to be having a pretty good game.
