Left back area has looked defensively vulnerable all afternoon.
Fucksake sorry to bang on but Maatsen was pretty much the only one you can't blame there, he was with his man the whole time. Shinnie just didn't track his and I don't know what happened in the middle
Don’t think he said anything about Maatsen other than that side has been weak. He’s right.
He did nothing wrong there but they’ve worked out that’s where they can attack us. It’s our weakest area.
That's mostly because Shinnie for all his merits is just extremely lightweight
I agree. Would probably look good in a game where we’re in the front foot but that partnership is a disaster this game.

@Leuth you watch Maatsen every game like I watched Powell in his England debut v Spain!
Just watch the game mate and not have so much obsession with one player

I would love to defend Smith instead but we haven't given him the ball more than about 3 times so there's nothing to defend
Going to be another potential Yeovil style game with the wind
Either the ball is getting a helping hand from the wind or we're just constantly over hitting it... The other way has seen the ball hang in their air more, be interesting to see if its just Fleetwood who are able to deal with it more than us

I was at that game up at Villa Park. Messy weekend in Birmingham
Lack of service for Schwartz yes, but get involved more ffs. He doesn’t do anything - Washington might not be as good at finishing but he holds it up well and can finish himself
Washington wouldn’t do much better, we’ve barely played any football on the floor after scoring.

But Schwartz is a better finisher isn’t he
So if you set up in a way that means he gets service from the midfield then he’s the better option
What I don’t understand is why we’ve put him in the 11 but not given him any service at all
It's like our fans think Schwartz should be able to stand still and receive the ball whenever he wants! Just feels like we play with 10 men when he plays, because it's not like he is winning us the ball back either.
Why is Shinnie on the left in the first place? Even his cross for our goal come from him being in a more central position. Add to the fact we’ve got DJ on the bench, I just don’t really get it.

We need to find a Kinsella and Parker to do the dirty and let him play.

It’s shite third division game in a wind tunnel.
I don’t know why Purrington has been dropped though. That is baffling.
