Good point on who ends up required to make the killer pass

Another reason why the system is not working given the squad we have. This might be why Wright is struggling. He’s being fed slow ball in areas he doesn’t want it by CBs who are struggling themselves.

I would expect opposition analysts will have already worked out how to exploit weaknesses in what were trying to do. Quick balls in behind the WBs when they push high, particularly down Diallo’s side as he is not a WB. And then press hard when we’re trying to build play through the centre of defence into midfield. In terms of defending against us, we do have a lot of play right side, but Stacey and Crnac have zero end product and even if it looks threatening it probably isn’t going to cost you a goal. So concentrate of keeping Diallo quiet. Out only threat is Sarge, who is very very good at this level, and we might do you at set pieces.

As per last season, take Sarge out of what we’re offering at the moment, and this is a relegation season.
