Well. I trust that some who were getting rather blasé about us being top of the division three weeks ago – even when the cracks were clearly showing – might now be having to rethink.
The team has now gone extremely flat: struggles to pass accurately; has lost a great deal of desire; is failing to create oodles of chances; is missing the chances they do get; is being ‘read’ far too easily by opponents.
This has been hugely obvious for a good five+ weeks now.
I return to my original take on it all.
The Iron need ‘a presence’ in CM. One needs to be found – and very quick!
Furthermore, once your methods of play have been totally sussed by everyone and their cat – it necessitates having different formations to turn to.
