That said, the defensive ‘passing/set-up’ bores me to tears at times - in an ideal world we’d play on the front foot 80% of the time - watching Meslier and co play square passes over and over is as dull as it gets imho. We should, and could, be whupping these teams like Rotherham, Plymouth etc, instead we’re hanging on!
