Goal 1: Get yourself goalside. Doesn't even try, and the attacker is able to go on like he's not even there.
Goal 2: Track your runner. Doesn't.
Goal 4: Mark your man in the box and challenge him in the air if necessary. Doesn't even get close.
Goal 3 is a Hollis switch off.
What stands out is as is par for this season, they are all weak goals to concede. You wouldn't be as annoyed if there was at least a challenge to the attacker in which the defender was beaten, it's understandable. However, not one of those goals was the attacker under any pressure what-so-ever. You can understand why MC was raging.
That last paragraph is an excellent summary of our problems. We are such an easy team to score against. Our full backs don't prevent crosses coming in, our central defenders don't offer a challenge when those crosses do come in. The midfield allow opponents to run or even walk past them at will. Further to that, we don't create chances and score any more. Any team that is lacking quality but are organised and hardworking (most in this division) will be too good for us, because organisation and hard work is something we just don't have. We are very, very lucky that D&R and York seem even worse than us.
