"When you analyse, you describe the game, but I don't want to do that, because there is no explanation for a loss like this"
So says MB after the game, but is that really the case? The explanation is simple to me. Sometimes teams in Wigan's position yesterday pack their defence and we hadn't the creativity, guile or intelligence to break them down. What's worse, is that we didn't change our plan or game, just kept banging away at the same old same old. It became embarrassing, and more so with Alioski's shocking contribution. Wigan's defence must have grown in confidence as the game progressed as they could see we weren't able to get through them and weren't coming up with any variations or new ideas. MB, I suggest getting an academy 11 (or 10) to park the bus in a practise match and work on some alternative plans. This may well happen again in the next 3 games. On a positive note, it was good to see Roofe back with a few nice touches. Sadly he probably won't be back to full strength before the season's end. We all clearly don't fancy the play offs, but it could end up as that - on current positions, it would be Boro. What if they take the lead and park the bus........
