I'm disappointed in the change made by bringing off a striker for a midfielder but today he didn't really have a choice with Hemed not being available due to a minor niggling injury.
Eh? Can Baldock not last 90 minutes then? Totally unnecessary change as far as I could see.
We've been through all this before and the stats have shown that the extra midfielder has been successful far more often than not to see out the game. I think - especially once they were down to ten men - that we could have kept attacking in this one and it seemed a shift in attitude from the start of the season where we actively wanted to grind teams into the dust following last season's experience. The idea that we are 'way too negative' though is just wrong. He plays the percentages and mostly gets it bang on.
Except today we weren't. I thought it was especially poor based on today's opposition. Majorly frustrating.
0-1down to 2-1up to 22 seems like a loss from where i'm sitting ...sorry....!! ffs.
The most annoying aspect of the game was they put us under no pressure what so ever , we hit one stray pass 3 mins into injury time which they lumped into the box , Stockdale was like a statue made no attempt to save a soft header and was in the wrong position as well , that's why they equalised nothing to do with negative tactics

You know 'today's opposition' had won 4 of their last 6 games?
we should've gone for the jugular today
