The Original OTIB

The end

Off. You can still move as a lone striker.

Mobile goal scorer

Which does not mean that we played badly in that half. Neither team excelled, we did well to contain when needed and had good possession up top, but lack movement for killer passes. Happy, no, but balance of interpretation required. Far from shit show predicted by some. Will WBA go for it and up pace now? Yes. Can we live with it and do something different? Manning's history says no but we shall see.

If Tommy chips keeper when he is back peddling, yes. How many chances did they create?

To be fair, we had the better of that half, they, like many, simply quicker and more decisive around the box. Wells on for me. Need more movement up front.

Roberts isolated and stood off, Johnson creates havoc with his runs but can't all go towards the ball.

Arse

Lots of bodies wide when they attack the flanks , doing well with that threat so far.

See above for lots of info

Lots of passes around their box but little else. Conway so static. Decent half with minimal drama but need more movement from all up top.

Left foot chip the finish there

Said with enthusiasm and genuine warmth I thought.

Great game.

"Happy for Anis to have a stormer tracking back and winning tackles.". One man's "drop" is another man's tactical decision.

Rather have Roberts in front of Pring or vice verse.

Mehmeti worries me here. This is a game for discipline. Him in front of Roberts? That is our weakness right there for a team that kills teams down the flanks. Happy for Anis to have a stormer tracking back and winning tackles.

bench

Pack the midfield, 5 across, balls in behind and don't waste set pieces. Stop them building wide so can't leave gaps by bombing on. Through balls early rather than too much width in our attack. All easier said than done. Could be a good game for TC if played this way.

Head Coach.

Looking forward to the half and half shirt as our third kit next season.
