Clutching at straws but can only think zonal marking or just pure pish defending which is a joke considering he mentioned before the game about working on set pieces Zonal defending is a bit pointless when there's nobody anywhere near most of your defence, and De Jong is just going to go up against the weakest in the air.

He wanders offside and then moves back onside into an area between Lammers and Tav as the freekick is taken. So either someone has to follow him, or the backline communicates that he's moving across it. Nobody followed his movement and the communication was non-existent. 8 minutes ago, Bad Robot said: just seen this on fb and why the fuck are we all marking the same space 😡 De Jong starts out somewhere between Goldson and Lundstram. It's a simple, clever, move across them. Which we utterly fail to deal with either by an individual taking responsibility and moving with him, or by communicating across the line that he's moving across Lammers' shoulder.

Don't think we've lost to a lower league team with Goldson in the side, happy to be corrected on that front. As I've said, he's prone to errors - he's certainly not infallible and the fact we've not signed better than him in 5 years is a disgrace, but the way people go on about him is genuinely hilarious.

I still actually rate Goldson but your right there. You have 2 centre halves who have played professionally since they were in their teens, it shouldnt be beyond them to take responsibility and change things if it clearly aint working.

Ten man malmo when we were one ahead on the night was a disgrace, colak, who was deemed not good enough for us, showed up goldson and balogun that night Not to a lower league team, but our track record in cups since goldson joined us is absolutely criminal and he's been at the heart of the defence for them all as well 3 times his first season we failed to beat the sheep in cups Hearts and tarriers following season St mirren and st johnstone the following season Hibs the following season (that first half capitulation was a disgrace) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
