He didn't need to risk Santos and we have 2 fit midfielders available for Saturday - so the idiot risks them both in a nothing game that no one gives a toss about - why couldn't he have started Sharples & Arfield as the two midfielders ?
Because he has to win games, more so against the team that pumped us 4 nil. It's that simple. Every loss is a bullet in the gun.
The biggest bullet is the Wigan game, lose that and I doubt he'll have a job.

And if we win, it'll be the next game. He could get us up and fans will still want shut of him.

3 decent corners into the box from Williams and not one Bolton player near it.

Yep
Toal is the only one we really have who looks a threat at set pieces.

That’s the second time a Huddersfield player should’ve been booked.

I'd love our two up top to control the cucking ball.

I swear some of our players used to be able to pass the ball straight.

Tutu and Southwood the only players who look decent.

Pedestrian football. No movement and speed. Very much feels like we're going through the motions like most of our first half games

Tutu is a breath of fresh air, but I’d rather see him on the right.

Yeah it has to be instruction they are following. Too many passes, turning backwards and looking for extra passes. Huddersfield aren’t playing particularly well but at least they have a go at getting it in the box or fashioning a chance to shoot.

There you go. It can just be that simple - cross, header in a bit of space, goal.

Lovely goal. Two moments of quality making the difference.
