I thought Wilson was clearly onside. He's in line with one of their defenders, and Lerma is nowhere near the ball nor is he influencing play in any way.
Fancy 'only' scoring twice with our first two shots...
We were far from a good team last night, but the two-goal lead turned out to be an effective cushion. Midfield hassled and overrun but we still got the three points.
Someone in front of me said tv showed our 1st goal was definitely offside. Anyone confirm?
Oh, and ball boys/girls are kids just doing their job.
I think Stan did play quite centrally ...certainly not out wide anyway.Huddersfield played 5 central midfielders. I don’t think we’ll ever face something as extreme as that for while but we really needed another body in there. Fraser and Brooks had to keep tucking in and that’s why their full backs had the freedom of the flanks to hurt us.
I realise our CM options are limited right now, but Stan for Brooks in a like for like sub baffled me. Could we not have asked Stan to play in the middle and then put Fraser and King wide to mark their full backs? Easy to say in hindsight but do think Eddie needed to be a bit more flexible last night.
Well I can distinctly remember us having more than 2 shots. Josh King had a very near miss in that opening 20 and certainly should have done much better with his shot when in on goal early in the 2nd half. I don't accept we were shocking for the whole 90 minutes by any stretch of the imagination but yes we were poor overall. But it's all about opinions.
