Not particularly wanting to start the Nemane debate again as he was decent yesterday going forward but he is a liability in defence down that RHS and whilst he plays that side will always be targeted, as it was again yesterday. He has no physicality to protect Brindley when it is required.

I’ve nothing especially against Nemane but I don’t know why TAR has suddenly been dropped when he can do everything Nemane does going forward but he is also a far superior defender. Perhaps it’s LW’s way of keeping both happy and match fit, it is a draining position to play…but I fully expect TAR to play in the big games.

I thought LW was right to play Cameron at LWB. As others have said, Chicksen didn’t offer a decent final ball all game on Boxing Day and Cameron is capable of putting those killer balls in. He didn’t have his best game but he still provided more than Chicksen did…and if he hadn’t have been fouled numerous times he would have been in bearing down on the byline.

We still played well yesterday, two or three moments of stupidity cost us. However, it was concerning how easy we were able to be got at just by one or two direct long balls forward to the big men. Another reason Nemane isn’t my first choice. That side is weak at the back with him in the team.
