    He wondered whether he should have gambled more.
    "After 70 minutes, do we take a point and ride the storm or do we roll the dice, put a striker on and have a right go?" he asked. "In the end, I went the coward's route thinking a point would do.

    This is the bit that concerns me and will be our downfall yet again. In L1 how many late goals did we score and how many did we concede after 70 mins. We went for it and got the winner and we kept the opposition pressed in their half. In the Champ we try and sit back and keep it in the corner when there's still 10 mins to go and don't try and get another goal and secure the win. We go negative, try and keep the points we have, invite pressure and inevitably concede. It was so frustrating to watch. Lets be more positive.

    I would have put Vassel on and gone two up front towards end, yes should’ve took a gamble imo
    Why wasn’t Crooks took off? (Sorry if it says in link, I just skim it until later when I can read it without interruption)
