It’s both forward players not moving and our defenders taking an age to move ball forward. Umpteen times tonight we opted to play the ball back when a forward pass was on, just before McAusland got fouled outside their box about 85 min mark, we must have had about a dozen square ball passes between Lundstrum, Lawrence and think defenders where involved or Tav. Going absolutely no where, just a case of “to you, to me, to you.” Just fucking gutless. No bravery, no 1-2s. Think we only passed thru to McAusland because we’d exhausted our square ball options.
Just fucking brutal.
Technically we are fucking brutal. Passing is shite, control, movement. Heading ball either defensively or offensively, attacking ball, winning 2nd balls. No 1-2s, no dribblers, no bravery at bouncing balls, and the amount of stupid fucking daft fouls we give away is like schoolboy stuff. In fact I’m sure school kids would do better. But our marking is crap as well, their big striker in first half won the ball almost every time the put it forward, 3 defenders at the back and the find him with a pass or punt every time.
I thought Dundee actually passed the ball better than us all night, and their movement off ball was better.
Just totally utterly scunnered with this team.
