I think the defence is generally tighter but we still cant seem to cope when oppositions up the pressure. We are a bit one paced. We are often at our weakest when we score. How many times did we draw or lose from winning positions last time? I was hoping Warney had learned from this
Of the back four yesterday, three have previous cship experience.
I'd like to think we,re better at the back. Mattock is the same and seems to play better in this league
Ihiekwe has also played there for one season
If we play 4-5-1 then defence starts with the 1 and works back
Good defence is coached as a full team effort not just for the keeper and back 4, plus it’s something for specialist coaching not a bit of a bolt on effort
Yes we are better but still gifting goals, we need to make the opposition work hard to get their reward.Quote:

No good shouting it then Grist if you was watching on iFollow, it had probably already happened and the penalty had been taken XDQuote:
