we really aren't using him to his strengths. it is like Cornelius all over again
It's the way Harris likes to play by the looks of things, Midfield players are supporting more than they did under Warnock and it does look a lot better in my opinion, the problem is that there doesn't seem to be much fluidity to our forward play at times, midfielders taking the odd touch to many and slowing the attack, it's still about getting the ball wide more than anything, although we are much better at keeping the ball now. Under Warnock, Blackburn wouldn't have scored that winner, as Bacuna wouldn't have been looking to play the ball inside and start again, it would've gone 50 yards. I prefer that we are trying to play a bit, mistakes will happen when things are changed and players are tired.

As for Glatzel, big improvement, looking more aggressive and showing some urgency, he has good feet as well. My main gripe with him is that he doesn't seem to know when to just hold the ball up, stand still and use his strength to either wait for support or draw a foul. Every time he receives the ball he turns with it or looks inside, sometimes he loses the ball unnecessarily as he doesn't have the pace once he's turned the defender to take it past them.
