In the 70s our team truly battled – however ordinary they could be.
This season, there have clearly been a few who have not always been truly committed.
The issue though, is more that silly systems have often left players bemused and confused and can make it look as if they don’t care when actually, they are simply not capable of grasping the headless chicken tactics employed.
Take Eisa, as an example. I really do not see him as not caring. Under Hurst, there was some logic. Under Cox, that has been hard to find. Eisa has suffered more than most from this.
Incidentally – I am assuming that the switch of CBs at half-time was pre-planned and not an injury.
Anybody know?
