Something just crossed my mind, when Stockbridge is talking about funds left, and if the Ahmed claim was kicked off as far back as the 22nd, would Stockbridge be talking about cash left minus this potential liability?
Personally id like to see the keeper look for a defender every single time. I reckon defenders currently expect the ball to be launched and don't look for the space to make themselves available. Fair enough changing the tactic immediately might result in mistakes to begin with, but with enough variation (dummy runs and throwing the ball to a deep midfielder rtc) it can surely work?
