United 1 Stoke 1 - report

My bad, I know someone was taking instructions from Hendo then the next minute running into the pack to be replaced by Fleck none of the three in the wall then looked at Hendo to see if the wall was in the correct place, it all seemed a bit panic stations.

What is Basham doing in there anyway ,surely he should have been one of the bust it brigade in the middle.

You have to ask why was Stevens with Crouch for the free kick too.

You could have put our tallest player with Crouch and it wouldn't have made a difference. The sole purpose when marking Crouch is to make it difficult for him to direct/control a header.

Crouch is really clever. When he came on he constantly went left or right to Freeman or Stevens to make it even easier for him. He knows the centre halves won't follow him because it leaves you wide open.
