Cannot understand why last night we had two central midfielders playing that deep.
Dozzell was picking the ball up 25-30 yards from his own goal trying to carry the ball forward and having nowhere to go with it as Skuse didn’t go past the half way line. That meant six players were already behind the ball, the two wider players never received the ball higher up the pitch because their starting positions were too close to both full backs who hadn’t pushed further forward. This left Parrot trying to find little holes to get the ball from Dozzell ,or the ball being lumped forward for a non existent Jackson to run around like a headless chicken chasing lost causes,or when he did receive the ball, failing to keep control of it. This is where we really need a box to box midfielder as otherwise we will carry on playing up to the halfway line then playing the ball sideways and then back to our defenders who lump it forward to nothing |  |
