Last night I thought everything we have is out there, & we have no options to change things about. Robson forced to play left back when we needed width, neither Marshall, nor Hurst when he came on, seemed to get very wide. No one picking up bits and pieces from long balls to Madine. Zoko caused all kinds of trouble but nothing to show after our goal. Rochdale much more effective getting wide & to the dead ball line. A settled left back is a basic requirement now.<br /><br />Ho Hum, here we go again.JCHnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5461334420199844712.post-63732041491595951272010-11-22T12:45:18.595-08:002010-11-22T12:45:18.595-08:00JCH

I've gotten to only a couple of games being down in London but have followed them all avidly and gleaned plenty. The substitutions thing will follow in a later post - in short, thank God he's stopped his 60th min like for likes.John McGeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16753119588070669180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5461334420199844712.post-9452815665782174132010-11-22T11:34:54.351-08:002010-11-22T11:34:54.351-08:00John,

You must be getting to a few games. Greg does seem to use substitutions very well this season, whereas last season he drove me mad with the John Ward last 10 minutes nonsense. I'm going to have to talk some more.JCHnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5461334420199844712.post-75824963493896114002010-11-22T03:38:44.081-08:002010-11-22T03:38:44.081-08:00Great stuff!

Never understood how they could be so consistently awful in the first 10-15 minutes of the second half. <br /><br />Sadly, neither did he.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11492434940865733042noreply@blogger.com
