I think that's fair, but you were suggesting he was getting beat on 1:1s, when both goals have seen him face two men. Our big issue (as usual) is communication and anticipation, when we have the ball we're making wrong decisions and without we're just not getting it back. That break from Doku a bit before the first goal came entirely from Longstaff not reading a recovery chest from Botman, probably because he's off his face on painkillers.Remember Colo wrote: ↑Sat Mar 16, 2024 6:16 pmThat gets at it for me actually. He's being directed to play so narrow, which consistently leaves him having to pick between the ball and the overlapping run, and he's then left in no man's land. If you're going to play 5 at the back the LWB and LCB have to do better, because they won't get the same cover.Colback's Orange Tufts wrote: ↑Sat Mar 16, 2024 5:57 pm
It's a bit of both for me. He's a CB out of position and it's telling, but he's being put in a position to fail
Willock having a stinker at both ends sadly.
