I agree, Sam was out of position and Kisnorbo fcked up. I think Pugh brings alot to the team and has chipped in with some goals this term.
Is Sam a better offensive option than Pugh? Yes. Has he been given a fair crack of the whip this year? No. Would we be moaning if Max had been playing? No - but we would have conceded a similar goal cos he didnt track back either. If White can't cope defensively playing behind a winger then maybe it's him who should be dropped and let Pugh play LB. Acknowledge that he dropped the ball for the goal but give sam a decent run of games. He also made one of our goals and in the games I have seen him play has been really lively.
