While I agree that he had a poor game, I don’t think that is where the problem lies. He was chasing all afternoon, but lost every duel. That might suggest lack of interest, of course, but the service, if you could call it that, was more suited to a 6’4 player, expert at holding the ball up.
Jack Nolan, as much as I enjoy watching him when we occasionally play well, has no judgment at all, cross or shoot, and very rarely looks for the front man unless it is with a 40 yards cross from the Centre circle. And Tommy Leigh is after all a very poor passer. Better strikers than Bickerstaff would struggle to do anything with that kind of service.
