Second half we got done in my opinion tactically. Grayson is no mug, they played to their strengths, exploited our weakness and shut down our threats ( ogbenny )
2 of their goals, first one and the free kick was top quality finishing.
Can’t figure why Rathbone came off unless injured. Lindsay was carry a shoulder injury for large part. Whilst Wes Harding has been great for us and versatile hes not a specialist left back has got caught / knocked off the ball almost identically yesterday with the Wednesday game. Harsh on him constantly moving around.
Whilst we weren’t fully at it yesterday I think it’s only fair to give them some credit for adjusting and playing well.
We had plenty of shots without testing the goalie much.
I actually do like our 3-5-2 formation, 4 at the back is mostly a waste of a player and we get overrun in midfield.
Learn from yesterday but move on.
Yes but if with your 3 at the back you’ve got a right footer playing on the left it gets diluted down to 2 and a bit at the back.

A point exploited by the Fleetwood manager
