No I’m NOT calling for his replacement already but…questions need to be asked.
The quite ridiculous sticking to a rigid tactical formation (without changing to another) that clearly wasn’t doing anything against a Hull side clearly there for the taking.
Lack of a pressing system that FL said that he himself would like to adopt. High press and attacking football I think he said-which we have only seen fleetingly.
Leaving a striker on the bench and bringing on a left back as a winger when we clearly need a goal. In fact bringing on a clearly unfit striker in a central role we all know he clearly can’t do and bringing off the one player who looked like he could create something was baffling.
Not advocating anything rash but FL has the whole of the summer to address the tactical side and thinking of alternatives if one system doesn’t work.
Same old ponderous slow build up bollocks-is it the players or the system?
Playing Hull was a perfect opportunity to be a bit more risky and try something different.
I’ve not mentioned recruitment deliberately as that out of FL’s hands. But we clearly need some pace and creativity in this team.
Positives-we didn’t look like conceding and the goalie was bloody brilliant.
Just trying to stimulate some discussion NOT calling for Franks replacement or wetting the bed!
Thoughts?
