We also looked reluctant to take a risk with a shot or two. That was a big difference between the sides, Wrexham were prepared to shoot and take a chance that something may happen, and in the end it did with the deflection. That opened the door for the second.
Same same.

As someone pointed out before, this is probably one area we miss from losing Ruben. Crowley doesn't tend to drive into the area with the ball. Didsy does, and Bostock more so than Palmer.

Would it require Macca to drop deeper to move the defence around, or more commitment from Crowley/Didsy/other to try something more central?

It will be interesting when Scott is fit again, to see where he plays. Also if Randall can take the LWB spot, we could have JJ move more centrally.
