Another disappointing performance and we got exactly what we deserved from it – nothing.
Not much to add that hasn’t already be said in this thread but one thing I do think has been overlooked a bit in our recent run of bad games is the impact of having no natural fullbacks in the side. One of the key components of our attacking game is the overlapping fullbacks and by not having them it upsets the whole balance of the team.
And that’s not to make excuses for the poor results and performances, or to knock any of the several centre backs who have filled in out wide, just merely to point out I think it’s a key part of our style of play and perhaps one that sometimes we don’t appreciate just how important it is until its no longer there.
