McEachran and Cain in the middle of the park ... That is piss weak lightweight. McEachran was nothing but a wafty fart last week in terms of off the ball play
Yeah been the same all season. The one position we haven’t addressed either |

I think I said much the same last week, but whilst McEachran has never been a physical presence, he did a fair bit of waspish harrying and pressure last season. Not so much this year, although I think he's been pretty good linking up counter attacks the last few weeks.

He does flatter to decieve so much, runs around a lot, gets close to the ball and doesnt actually do much when he has it. Took his goal very well a couple of weeks back though. I wish he wouldnt keep blind jumping into players when he is trying to head the ball, that will cost us as he always does it close to our box and gives away free kicks. In a side with a couple of midfield enforcers he could well be the play maker, currently though he is not that for us. |

Huge issue I know, but why is their tunnel so small? It looks like people emerging from a bomb shelter, blinking in the light they haven't seen for years. I've opened a drink. This could be a long two hours. In a side with a couple of midfield enforcers he could well be the play maker, currently though he is not that for us. Yeah I agree. I don't actually think any of our midfielders are that bad, we just sign nothing but small technical midfielders and then wonder why they don't work in combination. |

A good tactic I feel, I am currently on coffee but that could quickly change. |

Indeed, too many are too similar. |

Looks like a back four with Minturn on the right

Nice counter by Town from Glatzel to Austin to Kokolo.

As Smithy just said there are huge gaps between the 2/3 (not the fastest) CB's for them, a bit of pace could exploit those gaps.
