As Kent says, they sat back hit us. Lots of soak it up, poke it up from them, packing their defence and making it hard to break down. I agree with you, Kent, we looked more like scoring when we tried to pick our way through.
I am getting a bit worried about Hogan. He ran all over looking for the ball and trying to do it all as once again the service to him was poor. But just when he was in a good position he lost to a heavy touch. Not just once or twice, but every time, and it ended in the ball being taken off his feet, or stretching for a shot. I hope this was a one off and his confidence is not ebbing
We have certainly improved in goal, am very impressed and the throws, roll outs to feet are spot on. Liked the look of Ledesom (sp) for the fifteen minutes he was on. Created chances and chased back, did well with corners too. Sawyer looked poor again. Not interested in fifty fiftys, and not much more interested in anything much else. He needs to improve.
As for getting shot or loaning out. KK and Hoff have to move on either loan wise or permanently. They are simply not good enough and the fact they are in the squad, and needed shows me the squad is even weaker in depth than last season. Clarke adds a bit of pace down the line and although raw, will come through. I'd like us to keep trying with him. ]]
We certainly didn't deserve to lose that and on another day with a touch more luck we'd have taken all three points.
