Every time our midfield won the ball back tonight we looked like rabbits in the headlights and lost the ball again within 2-3 seconds.
Defensively I still believe we are persevering with a back 3 when we do not have the right personnel. We should try a back 4 and see if it makes a difference.
All in all my take on tonight’s game is that Steve Morison should not get this job automatically at the end of the season. I have see little change in his approach and is not trying anything different.
I think we have players better suited to a back 5 with wingbacks than a flat back four. NG and Giles as fullbacks would be a huge concern.
