I will still sack him. His basics are not right. Even against Colchester our basics were wrong. Some other OP mentioned in another thread about the positional play of Messi, Henry and Eto.
The same positional play is the way they play through the whole team.
People may wonder why other teams cut through our midfield so easily? It's not because Fred or Scott are bad players but the way we play. We surrender the centre too easily. It's not only the midfield who has to keep their position but it's the space occupied by a member of the team. It could be anyone. The right space at the right time.
When Fred and Scott get dragged out, no one step down into that position. Normally it's the attacking midfield player who has to do it. If he can't then the CF has to do it.
When we have the ball it's the same and normally one of the CB should step up into that position.
People may wonder how you come to the conclusion that teams cut through our midfield so easily ?
