Biggest issues I found in the Telford game were:
1) Sloppy with possession in midfield,
2) Full backs going missing
Let's see if they've worked in this.

When we attack down one side the opposite full back should be moving across along with the centre backs to provide a 3 man defence, part of the problem on Saturday was Roberts was coming too far across and Manny wasn't moving they were that close they could have been holding hands at times

Will we be starting this game with the same personel? Hammering it is then.

A bigger problem was playing a box-to-box midfielder as a CH.

He didn't have the best of games, but personally I would like to see him play along side Pearson who will talk and support him (where as we all know that isn't Manny's strength) before saying it's a big fat no. Think Sam should have taken Cazza off at half time moved Akil into midfield alongside Young and brought Tharme on

I do feel sorry for Wright.

He signs a long-term contract in January and promptly gets excluded by Keates.

Ricketts comes in and just because Wright is tall and strong he starts getting played at CH, oh yes we didn't have any other CHs anywhere near a senior pro.

...and posters get occused of going off Fifa games....

Smith has never led in defence in either spell here. He's great if left to his own game but don't expect anything more. If we're without Pearson there is no one leading or holding the team together.

Think it probably had alot to do with the fact he has been a central defender before.

I imagine he does wake up and sometimes think what the hell have I done
