The defenders are clearly being told not to just hoof it if possible, I think that’s why he overplayed it for their goal. He did exactly the same in the second half and got away with it. I would say the overall impact of playing like this was positive as we worked the ball from back to front on numerous occasions, but the odd bollock is always going to get dropped when we do this. I suspect Slav will give him plenty of credit for sticking to the plan and not resorting to aimless punts upfield.All he had to do was head it into midfield and we don’t concede the equaliser. Could have cost us if we’d not been so dominant.
apart from the cluster fuck he did alright.
Ben Davies is obviously the regular in that slot so there’s no issue really.
