Amazing how every other team attacks with such pace and intent, whilst we are SO slow and hesitant all the time.

Summed up when Marschall claimed the ball from a corner at 0-0, they only had a couple of players back, yet NOBODY bombed forward for him to play it to, instead we slowly played it out, by which time they had everybody back and we couldn't then break them down.

Then their opener a few minutes later was hitting us fast on the counter, exactly what we don't even try to do. Oxford's goals were the same at the weekend. Burton's goal was the same the previous week.

You can only assume we are coached/told not to do it as surely a footballer's natural instinct is to get forward as quickly as possible to try to score when the chance arises. There is absolutely no point us trying to play a slow, high-possession game if we do fuck-all with it.
