Really don't think it would have mattered. All three games we have pressured, lacked width and have no cutting edge. Multitude of strikers but we cannot score
Slovakia have to come and get us otherwise they are out, hopefully creates more spaces but are well known frail back four haven't been tested and I do not trust hart in goals.
No killer instinct tonight, midfield lacking creativity or width

Technically the academy is the future of the club which has generated revenue and decent players for us for a number of years, this has to be a priority for a club like us. Whether we like it or not we can play anywhere.
