Tracking runners............. basic defending

[chepstow]

We just are not doing it.
Both goals tonight ........pathetic

Whittingham has done it all season, he cannot defend, almost every goal scored from the midfield has been through piss poor marking and bad tacking by him and Gunnarson. We are targeted in that are of the field every single game but nothing is ever done to change it.

Just look at Gunna and Turner they cant believe he wasnt tracked????

Just watched the 2 goals in horror on SSN. But not a surprise as all season the midfield has failed to track opposition runners. My question is why can't City's midfield runners get into the opposition box??!! Too damn slow that's why. Is there a worse midfield unit in the league?

Our only hope is the dropping of Whitts. http://www.ccmb.co.uk/images/smiley_icons/thumbup.gif It was certainly the making of us two years ago. It's been downhill ever since.
