It isn’t the fact we play out from the back so much as rank non existent defending which causes us to leak goals. We do not perform even the basics of defending and this why we concede goals. We score as many as anyone but concede far more than any promotion team should or can if they want to get promoted.
Martin is completely clueless with coaching defending and that means he can never be successful and nor can we.
Precisely Egg….
RM has had a terrible defensive record throughout his managerial career and here he is just as terrible which is not good enough.
It has been obvious all season and yet he has done nothing to coach the defending at all. We still don’t engage the ball and allow crosses or passes into our box at the will of opposing teams.
Martin has not addressed our defensive ineptness one jott!
For this reason I am out…
Coaching of our back four is a disgrace. They never engage and Martin has never addressed this at all….
It just get worse and worse no closing no and no engagement with attackers, it’s so obvious but Martin allows this or actively encourages it… !!!
What is Martin talking about? Did he watch an entirely different match. Says he blames our attack and barely mentions defence! ‘We broke their press’ lol
Really dreadful summary of the match..
I’ll say it, Walker Peters has been well off and Smallbone has improved us but then Rothwell ……….. RM picking Rothwell really does leave him open to criticism.
