We were competing until he got sent off!! Wigan are just a quality side really switched on and wee organised! I feel we need another striker and we can not play Dawson and Perkins together! Mvoto looks clumsy as hell but and sure he will improve, and one last thing mellis is wasted on that wing!!! Roll on next week!!! UREDS
Whats point in having another striker if we are just gonna punt it up to O`Grady all season. Wigan just needed to pick up the loose ball from that and off they went passing and moving. We were so predictable and lacked any movement when anyone got the slightest bit of time on the ball. Created very little today which is a worry, however, there wont be many sides as good as Wigan were today.
I think that can all be remedied by just playing Mellis behind the strikers. It's an extra man to link up with O'Grady, Mellis is more creative in there and we can pass it through midfield easier. Having said that I wouldn't have played 3-5-2 today. Coyle played 3 up front and just left Beasajour (sp?) pushed up on the left all game. Wiseman is the only player we have that can cope with his pace so we needed him at the back.
Think he should have played Dagnall closer to O`Grady and agree abart Mellis needing to be central. On a few occasions O`Grady was trying to bring the ball under control with not a red within 20/30 yards. Dagnall got given **** all today it was all about O`Grady.
