In fairness he has played well this season so far and is scoring goals. The one constant in the team game after game though is the shocking defending.
Lombardi once said that you cannot be successful without a good defence, and we just look their for the taking in every game. This surprises me considering we have an ex Argentinian International defender coaching us.
Still think our system of the way our left and right backs play is the main issue, and in general the lack of cover once possession is lost high up the pitch. We do suck when trying to defend the counter attack, and until that is sorted out we will never progress.

Couldn't believe we AGAIN left 2 on 2 at the back when hit on the counter, only this time it was worse as they only had 10 men and we still bloody did it!!!
I'm not sure who this reflects on worse, Poch for not coaching them or the players themselves. I mean, do they really need to be told you keep an extra man back at the start of every game? Have they got to this level without ever being told or have they all collectively forgotten everything they ever learnt?
Truly baffling.
