So what's Freeman supposed to do? Stay behind with Cooke anticipating Pawlett losing the ball? Give Baldwin a free shot while he tries to get back to mark Cooke? Or close down the immediate danger as he's the only Utd player on the park in a position to do so? Tough one. I wouldn't be putting too much blame on the boy.
agree but siegrist saved well and put to side but with no one there the boy had time. Siegrist did one things wrong and it wasn't the save it was he squatted like he was doing a jobby when he should have stood tall and narrowed angle.
