Pitiful. It was too early to moan before a ball was kicked or after 2 or 3 games, but things have been souring for a while. The crucial thing was to learn from signs of weakness and improve, so that those instances would only be a blip.
Only it hasn’t and Butler and the team have seemingly learned nothing. Every game the midfielders get nullified, the wing backs stay pretty much rooted to the back, with little outlets up front. Without Roberts we’d be screwed.
The game management was abysmal. Every corner would have every man back to defend and we couldn’t escape. That’s not game management, that’s blind hope that we can hold on to a win. Against a team 23rd in the table.
