They then grew into the game and we allowed them to do so. Coley failed to make changes soon enough, perhaps he believed his own statement that "alll the players know the system that we play and can slot in" .....Unfortunately that's not the case, they obviously can't just slot in. Maybe, with so little time to train between matches then the players can't be expected to just pick up roles and positions that the regular starting eleven usually play. I suppose we'll just have to get through the next month some how, without losing our positive goal difference, but if we play like that against a mid-table or top six side we could be facing some heavy defeats........let's just hope we can get another 6 points as quickly as possible.
We lost not that long ago 3-0 at Hull and 2-0 at Crewe playing our " regular " 11.
