That's true and he was guilty of showing the guy inside for an earlier chance but the room for the guy to play wide to Haynes man was pretty awful too. .I actually like Haynes but his attempts at stopping that cross were utterly embarrassing
I think he puts up more of a fight to stop the cross than in the previous frame for what Grimmer does! Watch the save directly before the goal, cross in from trimmers side who is easily faked with a dropped shoulder then half heartedly puts out a let. Haynes leading up to the goal shadowed 3 faked crosses and eventually leaves the winger on his arse!We need a new left back next season whatever division we're in...
Stokes just doesn't seem to be the same after his injury and Haynes is a liability anywhere near our own box. He can perform as many Cruyff turns as he wants, he is still a shit defender. Always has been, always will be. The occasional bit of fancy footwork and one decent cross every four games or so doesn't make up for his poor defensive play. If I was an opposition manager I would target attacks down our left side if Haynes is in the team...
It's Grimmer's big weakness. He offers plenty going forward and has been a real asset this season but the cutting out crosses aspect of his game would get seriously exposed at higher levels without improvement.I think he puts up more of a fight to stop the cross than in the previous frame for what Grimmer does! Watch the save directly before the goal, cross in from trimmers side who is easily faked with a dropped shoulder then half heartedly puts out a let. Haynes leading up to the goal shadowed 3 faked crosses and eventually leaves the winger on his arse!
*and then to boot, it was grimmers man who casually heads home the rebound stood in acres of space!
In fairness to Grimmer he took a bad kick first half and looked like he was struggling with it afterwards. I notice Stokes was warming up at half time so I think they had doubts Grimmer would last the 2nd half.
And the guy waltzing tbrough the midfield before putting it out right to Haynes man .Poor defending by both Grimmer and Haynes there.
We need to try harder in stopping crosses coming in from the wings.
I believe there is a new law coming in where any hand or fingertip to any ball by a keeper as shot flies in past them will now be deemed as an own goal.How was our first goal adjudged OG? The criteria has taken an odd turn over the last few seasons.
