We were not playing attacking football when we conceded two last night

Or at Newcastle. We concede when we sit off, do not press and do not keep the ball because we have no attacking threat.

We do not have good enough defenders to play defensive football. pinto is ok going forward but cannot defend, Olsson is a good player but hit and miss defensively and the centre back partnership is awful. If anything we need to attack more because with us it truly is the best form of defence.
