Wes wasn't playing wide. Murphy was, but the most effective width came from the two FBs.

Face it - Wes was s**t last night. It wasn't the team formation or the tactics, it was him. Along with most of the rest of them, it has to be said. Tettey was good, Zimmo was good, Pinto and Stiepermann tried hard, but the attacking players were poor.

I agree with most of the others on here - the thing that Farke got wrong was the timing of the subs. There may have baan a good reason for it, but I didn't and don't see it.
