Can one of the journalists ask NP why we appear unable to take set pieces?  Perhaps they need extra practice tomorrow until they get it right.

I Wouldn't mind seeing pring given a go on free kicks.  Blackburn doing well fouling us and not let have a constant pressure in the final 3rd. 

Teams are prepared to concede fouls in dangerous areas.

1 Because they know we are never awarded penalties, and 2. Because they know we are useless with free kicks!

I don't think we're as bad with free kicks, haven't we scored a couple from Naismith free kicks this season?

Does make you wonder whether teams are prepared to take more risks in the penalty area?

They're looking to break our press when it comes and diagonal switch to Hedges or Brereton Diaz and get in from there, probably the best way to play against us in a quick transition.

Think we're playing okay, final ball has to improve definitely - seen a lot of balls being played behind runners or not coming in at all.

They're not good or bad defensively but there are spaces for us to exploit and the two defenders on bookings especially Ayala need to be isolated and ran at.

COYR.

Perhaps we need Bell on to do that!
