Ofoborh seems to have pushed up into an attacking midfield position, thats not his forte TBH.

Don’t disagree at all - quite the opposite but going on the first 37 minutes we could have Messi in creative midfield & Kane up front but they still wouldnt see the ball
Yes that is true, even someone better than Messi like Kemp would struggle in this line up  |

So glad we've stuck our best player on the bench to play 2 lumps up front then not got the ball to them.
Fair but not sure Glatzel would have seen any more of the ball |

Clarke looks tidy in his few touches. Cotterill wants more touches than he's going to get.

Very poor by Cotterill there, hes got a very bad touch on this showing.

Early days, but really can't see what Cotterill adds to this team, just seems to lose it in dangerous positions all the time

Yes it is early but hes been robbed 3 times while on the ball so far and every time just outside of our box, not good, hopefully he will improve soon. |

Think Glatzel would have done better than Drinnan there

Been playing there since the start, just that we haven't had the ball - Drinan has forgotten he's a striker |

Drinan really should have had a shot 1st time there, took it too wide.

We're playing a creative midfielder deep and a destructive midfielder more advanced. It could be an interesting tactical idea, or it could be batshit. Time will tell, but it's not off to a great start. |

Ofoborh is not an attacking midfielder.  |

He is being asked to do the creative stuff in the DMC position - the one thing a QB knows is that you don't have much time before you get hit |

I just don’t see what we’re trying to do at the moment. I’ve no issue if the plan is to hoof it to Smith, but Drinan is miles away from him and the nearest player seems to be Ofobohr?!? He’s not supposed to be there is he?!

Why is Ofoborh the player receiving Smith's knock downs, it's almost comical watching a player with such little attacking talent so far up the pitch
