Even sport.
Might have gone both method.
Went their method as a result of we are able to’t defend set items.
Sure, we should always have had a penalty, however I want to deal with what we are able to management.
Nearly as good as Kelly, Senesi, and so on are at defending sure conditions, each are so poor at defending balls into the field. Must make some courageous selections within the Summer season if we wish to progress, too many defensive gamers in our squad that may’t address crosses. Can possibly accommodate the odd defender like this, however to progress we actually want a dominating out-and-out brute of a centre-back who licks his lips on the considered heading the ball away. It is perhaps Zabarnyi, I don’t know. However to progress we actually want somebody of that ilk.

Scored a purpose with the most effective passage of attacking play we’ve produced all season then utterly sat off them and conceded three targets on account of some completely diabolical defending.
Classic Bournemouth in giving a group who haven’t received in 6 a Victory

Ought to’ve received that. Very disappointing, higher than them for a lot of the sport. VAR doing its job as traditional, Dango has to attain from 4 yards. Typical Boscombe

Once more we had been outdone by lifeless ball kicks and simply can’t defend crosses.
The most effective purpose was scored by our participant Vina.
