It feels like two steps forward and one step back here. Going forward we look much better than we have done in years. But defensively we seem far worse. Currently, Steffan doesn't look convincing in the slightest and neither does Lenihan. Perhaps it's the players around them making them look worse than they are, but they (minus Giles) were all there last season and we didn't let many goals in.
For me, it's the experience we've lost which is causing us problems. Last year we could call on Bamba, Peltier and Taylor to use their experience late in games to help see them out. Considering we can use 5 subs in each game, why on earth wouldn't Wilder keep them around for that purpose? We could have really done with a few of them on the pitch as the game came to a close tonight to just get the three points over the line.
