Drysdake does well there but they are ripping through Eccles hopelessly lightweight

We aren't going to do anything if we have 1 player in their box and they have 5 or 6

There isn’t one.
Bakayoko is no threat at all, Shipley has a terrible touch.

I also miss that mccallum wasn’t shy of crossing with his right...even if they weren’t good he would do it now and then which made the defenders think twice

The middle four are all the same type of players and they are playing in a style to get behind the wing backs

We have no 'influencer' on the pitch.
When you take out O'Hare, Kelly, McFazdean there will be a problem.
Bring O'Hare on at half time.

1-2 seconds too long on the ball before every pass and not enough movement in and around the box. They will just fill up the midfield now and letting us have the ball out wide where we haven't had enough quality yet on our crosses or cutbacks

I think it just looks worse because he’s on his own - don’t think mason is getting back enough?

We have so much speed in midfield but Baka is pulling defenders around so no space for anyone in final 3rd.

Need to push someone further up the field to create so space

If o’hare on bench he’s fit enough to play some part. He has to come on at half time for Eccles

Probably because they know we have no threat on the counter.

Eccles isn't up to it yet is he? Bizarre choice by Robins to play him ahead of O'Hare

We go from trying 100 passes by their box to shitting ourselves in defence within seconds

Robins needs to look how their forwards break from positions compared to ours

Not convinced by Eccles.

Drysdale has look unconvincing at times, but since he was skinned for the goal he’s woken up and looking a lot better.

Baka is unfortunately the issue. He isn’t a focal point and we’re being forced to play wide when we attack.

Unbelievable defending from Hyam then, he was done for pace yet somehow stopped their player getting a shot off.

But they are different types of player, why are people struggling to grasp this?

If you play O'Hare instead of Eccles then you have to play Westbrooke or Shipley at DM, which they are not suited to.

If Mason and Dabo can’t get forward and back then they can’t play in this formation. They’re still not wingers

Fucking hell, Westbrook turns slower than Jordan Turnbull used to, loses the ball and they outpace us on the break

Struggling today. Can't play baka as a lone striker, o hare should have started and drysdale is having a tough time.

Should maybe have gone 4 at the back
