WRONG TACTICS FIRST HALF

NOW AVAILABLE 

Well we have to take the bitter pill of defeat. The reason wrong tactics first half to cautious..but we now know it works. The fact that Suarez dropped deep after the break with Sturridge in the central attacking role. This put United in a spin as it would of done to any team.
 As I stated in my blog before the  game….

The danger was that Sturridge would not have been fit enough for this tactic. But in Hindsight the game could have been won out of sight for us. Before we would have taken Sturridge off to shut up shop or put Borini on.

So Rodgers got it the wrong way round. But the worries that the Suarez/ Sturridge partnership would not work are unfounded. It works and it works well with Suarez running at defenses will suit him all day long. So this is the very positive thing we can take from the game. The other is that Borini will be the natural replacement for Sturridge as he gets tied. For the Norwich game this is the only thing Rodgers must have in his mind any think else I will be so pissed off before a ball is kicked.
So that is the attack sorted…. Midfield…. Allen had a nightmare he needs to work on his distribution he should be rested with Shelvey or Hendo getting the nod.

So all in all I am not as pissed off as I am usually with a defeat to the scum. The reason being that I can actually see a half decent team from now to the end of the season .With us being strong in all areas that involves us scoring a lot of goals.

Still a bit frustrated with us over passing especially round our own penalty area as we try to suck teams out. We are just not very good at it …a thing to put into practice when we are 4 goals up.
So here is to the new S&S as a strike force let’s hope it really kicks in gear against Norwich. JF96 YNWA …….
