I assume McNair is out there somewhere - and if he isn't, it's the spot Barlaser should be dropping into IMO. Whether he got spooked from turning that way because of a Huddersfield player I don't know, but when you watch that play happen with our first string players, that ball almost always ends up our with our RB. He was already facing that way when he received the ball, it would have been stupid to turn around in that position not knowing what was behind him. When he took that first touch, looked at his options, he should have gotten rid. I don't agree that it's solely down to him and the keeper though, I think the shape was poor from everyone involved.

Then it's bad body positioning from him in the first place 🤷♂️ the whole point of that pass is to keep both sides of the field open Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coulson's given away an easy cross as well. Was just about to write this after seeing the highlights. why on earth does Lenihan lose the ball out there in the first place, then Coulson somehow gets 4 yards away from crosser and Lenihan then lets their attacker have an easy header. This is 75% on Lenihan and 25% on Coulson. Just very poor. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyWoofs_shinpad 2,192 10.2k Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 It’s great to have won a game, especially as we very rarely get past the first round of the league cup. Hopefully we can get a decent team in the next round and generate some much needed income. It’s good to be able to talk about a result, rather than all the recent, tedious transfer talk.

LinoJo3 5,528 13.2k Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Goal was glovers fault for me, I wouldn’t even pass it to that defender on fifa lol. Held it for to long which allowed them to press that bit higher, should have either gone to McNair or just banged it out. Either way who cares. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
