we should not be only 3 points above the relegation zone. This really is totally unacceptable.

I think the team selection does not reflect the strengths we have in our squad, but what bothers me most is the tactics and in particular the formation of the team.

For a lot of our games our formation has been

Standard 4 defenders
1 central midfielder
3 advanced midfielders
2 forwards

Our team is so unbalanced and vulnerable to counterattacks it iis frightening to watch when you consider none of our advanced midfielders are noted for their defending duties.

Playing with this current formation it is difficult to see where the next win will come from. Unless we start to play with a better balanced midfield I can only see us dropping further. Turning our fortunes round is the responsibility of our management. Less of the arguing with the officials and more concentration on the balance of the team.
