He has had games where he was fantastic and really important. Other games less so. He is 24 and that happens. He isn't in his prime yet and still.has a while to learn. He needs consistency which only comes with age and also a bit more cutting edge in the final third. But his tackling and breaking up of play in some games is superb and really important.

You know what we've missed in our midfield? A Derry-type player. A nasty, horrible, pull-no-punches ####### of a midfielder. We haven't got anyone like that.Top Scorers 2018/2019

But really you have to say the formation was a mistake to begin with because Pavel is not a wing-back, so the 3-5-2 was the reason they were able to slice right through us with one pass straight from their defence!
Why is Holloway experimenting with untested formations at this stage of the season is what I'd like to know!

As for Freeman, no idea either! Maybe that's the lucky number he's always had. Players can be superstitious.

Great bloke, Rs through and through, get em playing for the shirt etc but without a credible game plan we're gonna struggle. Olly's game plans are flawed imo. I can see what he's trying to do, but in practice he's making bad calls to achieve them.
Burton was the only glaring tactical error for me....just can't see why he changed a side with momentum.
