    Wrong team choices today !

    Yep. They looked very solid.

    As I said at the time Pax, some of Crewe's defending was shocking.

    The pitch

    I've seen a lot, lot worse around the leagues. Don't see how we can use that as an excuse myself.

    Hunt, Rose, Lorentzson.......

    He did. First training session I think.

    Murphy

    In defence of Murphy, it's more a case of he can't tackle and he can't really defend, rather than being scared too. His strength is in going forwards. As long as he's able to do that to good effect, then we can excuse him for the things he can't do. When he doesn't do what he we know he can...

    Murphy

    I like him, but he is very inconsistent.

    Jim O'brien

    Yep! When I looked there were just 5 subs out there.

    Phillips

    Willis too.

    Wrong team choices today !

    One of the little things that irks me about Murphy is when Stokes or whoever is left back has the ball. Just watch him next time he plays. Stokes receives the ball out on the left flank with the ball in our half and Murphy nearly always stands about 20 yards away from him waiting for a through...

    Phillips

    I just worry as to the amount of errors that Phillips makes that lead to goals. Certainly a stack more than RCC or Martin or Ricketts or Stokes and for that matter, Haynes too. He has cost us dearly on a number of occasions.

    Burton Albion (Home) Match Thread

    Nope. And the more and more I see him, the more I view him as a centre back in the future rather than a fullback. He's not the quickest and crossing isn't his strong point, but at centre back he is steady and commanding and calm too. If we're not looking now, I would be looking in the summer...

    Wrong team choices today !

    The were disciplined, well organised and difficult to break down. Think we always have errors in our team unfortunately. Fleck, Phillips the two keepers etc. Burton didn't look like they were going to make an error but we always seem to have that in our make-up unfortunately.

    Mogga got the tactics wrong today

    Well yep, but we are not privy to what is going on, on the training ground. I just wonder whether he is carrying a knock. Would most definitely been a better choice than Lameiras.

    Phillips

    That's what I meant. We were in control leading up to this goal in THAT spell, not that we were in control all game.

    Jim O'brien

    He wasn't out the there with the subs at half time when I looked.

    Wrong team choices today !

    We were the better team though and second half we started really brightly and looked the more likely to score. Phillips' mistake changed the game. After that Burton looked well in control. Don't think Steve Davis said anything of the sort for that game compared to what I have said about our...

    Would like to see us try and bag a left back and put Stokes back in the middle. He looks more natural and suited to that role.

    Phillips

    We were in control before that mistake. Phillips' error changed the game.

    Hunt, Rose, Lorentzson.......

    If Fleck wants to go then it's just thanks and goodbye from me. Once someone wants to leave I think we simply have to move on and stop fussing over them anymore.

    We were the best team though until the goal. Once that goal went in Burton looked in total control. Before Phillips' error they hardly threatened at all.
