Excellent ?!
I agree Drury should not get loads of flack as he's not been that bad - his defending was fine - it's just from the first minute every time he got the ball it was HOOOOOOF whether he was under pressure or not.
In Holland he was much more prepared to play it out to Lappin on the left. Therefore, it could also have to do with 1) Chadwick coming inside and 2) Grant's orders, but at the end of the day it was bloody annoying.
Going back to Chadders drifting inside I feel that both he and Hughes did that last night. Have to sort that out - we look a different team with Croft and Huckerby as it finally gives us natural width.
Of course, maybe Chadwick and Hughes would not be so tempted to come inside if our central midfield made a bit more of an effort to actually stop everything streaming through the middle.
