Not an over reaction at all
Yet another complete and utter shambles away performance, We're absolutely shocking away from home.
Windass will be sold in January. He has no roll to play at Latics. He isn't a wise man and he isn't a winger yet for some reason we try very unsuccessfully to put a square peg in a round hole. The only alternative is Macca but for some reason whether it's fitness or what we are sliding playing the lad out of position.What was the idea of bring burn on when Powell went off. And why McMannaman dose not start ahead of Windass is beyond me.
This is the first Saturday match I haven't been able to watch a stream of all year (wife's birthday) and boy did I pick a good one to miss.
Ever since Massey got hurt at QPR we've haven't had the least bit of a goal scoring threat away from home. I hope this is a wake-up call for Cook to switch things up because we are approaching the point of insanity with his team selections.
Now then don't suggest two up top, you'll get scorned on for that.We can rotate plenty of players without too much trouble. But Evans isn’t one of them.
Maybe if we’d gone 4-4-2 or played with outright widemen we could get away with it. But if everything is going through the middle Evans needs to be in there.
Burn coming on was strange as it didn’t change our approach and he was well out of sorts. If we where going to switch it up after Powell’s departure we should have played Grigg & Windass in a two. With McManaman & Jacobs pushed out wide.
All that said if you’re going to play poorly and get beaten you may as well use it to shake things up. James aside no player can think their position is safe. Maybe things where getting a little too comfortable.
Burn -could it be that he wanted a back 3 and push up James & Robinson in attacking roles.What was the idea of bring burn on when Powell went off. And why McMannaman dose not start ahead of Windass is beyond me.
