You don't need to be a football genius to work out we're conceding too many goals - 6 in the last 3 games.
Having also watched the tv highlights, I must agree that their two goals were the result of individual blunders.
However, whilst I'm not blaming Chapman, both goals were from low shots at the edge of the box & could have been saved by a keeper with quicker reactions.
If Maxted is capable of making 2 outstanding saves from the penalty-spot, perhaps it's time we gave him an opportunity.
I'm no football genius, but on Tuesday night I'd be re-instating Big Ben at centre back at the expense of Hughes.
I'd also switch the Don to R.B. to feed Clark/Sousa, keeping Rodgers & Dunne to complete the back four.
If Conneely is fit, I'd drop Brown, who despite his terrier qualities, is too easily dispossessed.
We all know we can score goals but we've got to stop conceding them.
