He ends up having to mark areas instead of players, which usually ends up with the opposition having more time on the ball than we would like, ending up in nearly a free cross in to the box.

It will be interesting to see how Foxy sets things up now he is the main man.
I'd agree 100% with that about getting exposed, it's spot on and not his fault when that happens. But there are also times when he's 3 yards off the attacker and dangles a hopeful foot instead of being 3 feet away and putting in a cross stopping tackle.
Not saying Freeman is a lot better but he's definitely more aggressive.
See Freeman play tomorrow and have a shocker 😄
