Wingers aren't marked anymore. The game has changed remarkably over the last ten years. Fullbacks take up central roll when the opposition attacks down the flanks . Never understood it myself but the guys with the laptops know best
This high line is a worry. Lampard comes from a world of decent defending. Players who can deal with a cross. Our defence is very limited, which he's obviously aware of and I'm sure he'll address the problem in the summer.
Letting a regular 2 goals a game in is crap for a top six team
He's the best we have down the middle. Wright can't play there and Asante isn't good enough. Strange game for him on Saturday...sort of passed him by a bit. I still think he's improving though
Torquay get over 4,000 turn up for home games because they kick off at 3pm so no one can watch their real team (me included) on TV .
Long may this be the case.
They were the only club who regularly took the West End (haven't said that since I was a teenager) throughout 70's definitely...not sure about later years . May of surrendered it that year
