The biggest culprit is what is called the square ie 2 centre backs and 2 centre midfielders. doesnt matter how many crosses come in ,if your square defends particulary the second ball you rarely conceed.
The other main problem is the full backs are asked to stay out wide leaving big gaps between the full back and centre backs for runners to exploit . different coaches have different ideas on this
true deano is a centre back/sweeper but has played there only twice (and he scored).
His best position is sweeper prob along side kempo ,but edwards wont be rested as hes played over 100 consecutive games
He played along side kempo in pre season and they never conceeded whilst together.
The major factor is the pitches,and since feb its there for all to see,the team have been asked to go long and the team has not got the players to do this,hence the ball just comes straight back
So before looking for scapegoats , study the facts first,by the way he can use his left foot as well as his right ---- rant over

Who are you, his Dad???
