Goals have we conceded from shots like that this season (and also last) and why do we not seem to learn from it?

Other teams obviously know it's one of our main weaknesses but we never seem to address how we close players down on the edge of the box. So frustrating!

    We’re a weird side so good defensively but do have a tendency to concede silly goals. Our defence is so good even when we concddde it’s not even on them. Our midfield is just so meh

    Imbalanced in that we are too focused on defence i think. Then the Midfield always looks a half step too slow or too deep. Makes for a very hard watch most games.  Otherwise i am starting to think one or two of them maybe colour-blind and mistake the ref for one of ours or just can't distinguish when a forward is in space to shoot.

    Dropping too deep and not picking up the space on the edge is what got Docherty dropped out of the team in January in the first place. Jones was doing his nut at Blackburn about it.

    How do you know that they know that it's one of our main weaknesses?

    Instead of worrying why we concede those those of goals you should worry about why WE dont score them.

    Don't be daft. Don't you know that clean sheets is all that matters. Just what is your weird obsession with scoring goals?

    Gets a lot of credit for 'organising' but time and time again, can't seem to organise that scenario.

    Quite worrying considering the 2 midfielders who started yesterday only play because they’re meant to be good at handling those kind of scenarios. If they can’t even press and close down quick enough what’s the point of them being in the side.
