We had a great shape at the back....no one can deny that. Rhodes was smothered and didn't increase his value on that display. Maguire was exemplary.
The midfield had a role to play in this and did well defensively.
However the offensive side of our game for me was embarrassing. Well up with our display against Burnley when we had Beattie and lupoli and then Ward who was sent of within minutes.
We were definately set up to be watertight and it worked but gave us an imbalance which denied us any chance of a win.
Of course had we won the penalty shoot out then everybody would be delirious, including me. Means to an end and all that, but if desperation stakes don't work then expect fallout. That is what has divide the supporters. |
